"Marginal" eyes
Since "marginal has a number of irrelevant associations, the jargon terminology needs to be explained in a brief phrase, or substituted for the descriptive phrase that a non-professional would recognize. I'd have done this myself if I'd been capable. --Wetman (talk) 00:23, 25 January 2012 (UTC)


 * I tried but can't figure out what the author meant as well. No explanation is given and "marginal" can mean anything from being located at the margins of the body (as in eurypterids and trilobites) to ommatidia being arranged in the margins of the eye (as in crustaceans). Lacking clarification, I thought it best to simply use the words the author used.--  Obsidi ♠ n   Soul   02:05, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
