After about 13 days postfertilization (pf), the tornaria larvae start transforming into the Spengel stage accompanied by a series of morphological changes. The larvae are approximately 950 μm in length and are subdivided by a deep circular constriction into a slightly conical preoral region forming the future proboscis and a voluminous spherical posterior region bearing the distinct opisthotroch (

). The serotonin-LIR cells are bipolar neurons that send a neurite into the median neuropil of the apical organ. Aside from the cells of the apical organ, numerous serotonin-LIR somata are scattered throughout the proboscis epidermis. Each bipolar neuron exhibits a distal neurite connecting to the apical surface and a proximal neurite. The proximal neurites of those bipolar neurons form a basiepidermal plexus-like arrangement throughout the proboscis epidermis. Within the voluminous postoral region, serotonin-LIR somata are only occasionally present. A conspicuous number of neurites are present at the level of the opisthotroch and form a distinct neurite bundle, namely, the opisthotroch neurite ring (

. Accordingly, the Spengel stage is characterized by a regression of size of the larva and the fusion of the preoral ciliary feeding band, the neotroch. The Spengel stage is followed by the Agassiz stage. Agassiz larvae have a cone-shaped anterior body region with a smooth surface, the prospective proboscis region. The overall size is further decreased, and the anterior eye spots begin to disappear. The Agassiz larvae are competent for settlement.
