Tlie coclilea of a bird consists (i) of a scala vestibuli with a very small lumen, which opens at one end into the perilymphatic cavity of the vestibule, and at the other into the lagena (the dilated extiemity of the cochlea corresponding with the cupola of mammals) ; (21 of a scala tympani, also opening into the lagena at one end, and into the foramen rotundum at the other; (3) of a scala media ending blindly at one end, but in communication with the mem- branous vestibule at the othei', through the membranous canalis reuniens (cr). As in maramals, the cavity of the osseous cochlea is divided lengthways by the ductus cochlearis into a scala tympani ending in a foramen rotundum, and a scala vestibuli ending in the cavity of the osseous vestibule, 'which in its turn is connected with the foramen ovale. The auditory nerve, piercing the osseous labyrinth in various points, is distributed in the walls of the membranous labyrinth. All these complicated structures are derived from
