These three veins open into the sinus venosus, which lies on the dorsal side of the heart, above the point indicated by the letter S. In the diagram C the pre- and postcavals are indicated by Vc, Vc, only one precaval being represented. aortic root may be made up at its origin of two arches, anas- tomosing with one another (Lacerta) (Fig. 229, A, 1, 2), or of one only (certain Lizards, Snakes, Chelonians, and Crocodiles) (Fig. 229, B, HA, RA}. The most posterior arterial arch gives rise to the pulmonary artery (Ap) (comp. also Fig. 221, A, B). 1 A small aperture of communication between the ventricles, the foramen Panizzae, exists in Crocodiles. Near it, between the origin of the left aorta and the pulmonary artery, there is a small cartilage, as in 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 Wiedersheim, Robert, 1848-1923; Parker, W.
