Fromtheperiphery of the latter a rounded net- work of somewhat wider vessels extends to the con- voluted uriniferous canals of the cortical pyramids (Fig. 153,/; Fig. I55,£-)- The most external cor- tical layer, Hyrtl's cortex corticis, receives its blood from the efferent vessels of the uppermost glome- ruli and the terminal branches of the coil-bear- ing arteries (Fig. 155, d). Let us pass to the veins of the cortex. Stellate venous rootlets, the so- called stellulae Verheyenii {e), appear quite superfi- cially. Connected with these stars, there is then formed in the cortical pyramids a long venous trunk (/{), which lies in close apposition to the coil-bearing artery. Into its regular lateral branches open the rounded capil- lary net-work of the cor- tical pyramids. The vein, itself, sinks at the margin between the cortex and medulla, into the venous arched vessel which we mentioned above. Thus far all is settled. 8.
