Although the origin of the bursa pharyngea in the human embryo is undoubtedly closely bound up with noto- chordal contact, still the picture suggests that the development of the bursa is due to the tension exerted not merely by the notochord alone, but equally by the sheath of developing con- nective tissue about the notochord.

It is possible, however, that notochordal contact may influence the mesenchyme to condense earlier to form the sheath, since. ^M ?ieja*. Fig. 7 Human embryo, 46 mm. C.

X 100. the fibers seem to appear in the human embryo at a relatively earlier stage thay in the calf and the pig. In conclusion, it is advisable to emphasize again the me- chanical nature of the pharyngeal outpocketings in the calf (when present) pig, and human embryos. These structures are merely mechanical expressions of the growth conditions of the pharyn- geal region, arising in accordance with the presence of the me- chanical factors determining them. The bursa pharyngea of man therefore cannot be considered a structure of fundamental sig- nificance, essential to the development of the pharyngeal tonsil,.
