In the elasmobranchs (especially the skates) the parallelism of hyoid and mandibular arches is lost, the livomandibnlar separating from the hyoid and attaching itself to the hinge of the jaws. In the teleosts the hyomandibular is thus Tn'ouglit in connexion with the quadrate, and lies between it and the cranium, the joint being tlius indirectly supported from the cranium, a bone, the symjilectic (known only in fishes) helping out the suspensor, while another bone, the interhyal, connects tliis with the hyoid, which itself divides into two, so that the hyoid arch, like a gill arch, consists of four Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Hertwig, Richard, 1850-1937; Kingsley, J.
