In hearts of pig embryos of 15 mm. we begin to see the sinus musculature breaking. Fig. 2. Fig. 2. The division of the right venous valve into the Eustachian and Thebesian valves. The septum superius has reached the septum intermedium. through the septum intermedium. In a 20 mm. pig this musculature has formed a small strand which passes forward just above the ven- tricular septum, and in a little later stage we see the bifurcation of the strand, one branch passing beneath the endocardium to the right side of the ventricular septum and the other to the left. In the ventricular portion we recognize the forerunners of the ultimate Purkinje fibres, but not so in the atrial portion. This difference remains throughout life (Tawara). The differences in structure of the musculature of various parts of the foetal heart have also made it possible to trace the fate of the conus.
