It is long and narrow, flattened on both sides, and describes a sligbt curve with the concavity turned upwards: a form which allows it to be studied, with regard to relations, on two faces, two borders, and two extremities. By its external face, it responds to the internal pterygoid muscle, the digastricus, the sterno-maxillaris tendon, and the cellulo-aponeurotic layer separating it from the parotid. Its internal face, applied to the side of the larynx, responds, sujieriorly, to


. The comparative anatomy of the domesticated animals. Veterinary anatomy. 368 THE DIGESTIVE APPARATUS IN MAMMALIA. It is long and narrow, flattened on both sides, and describes a sligbt curve with the concavity turned upwards: a form which allows it to be studied, with regard to relations, on two faces, two borders, and two extremities. By its external face, it responds to the internal pterygoid muscle, the digastricus, the sterno-maxillaris tendon, and the cellulo-aponeurotic layer separating it from the parotid. Its internal face, applied to the side of the larynx, responds, sujieriorly, to the guttiu-al pouch, to the carotid artery, and to the nerves which accompany that vessel in the upper part of the neck. The superior border, thin and concave, is margined by the middle part of the digastricus. The inferior, thick and concave, is in contact with the glosso-facial vein. The posterior extremity is maintained beneath the transverse process of Fis. MAXILLARY AND SUBLINGUAL GLANDS.

Vessels and nerves.—The blood is distributed to the maxillary gland by various small innominate arteries, like those of the parotid gland, and which are most frequently derived from the external carotid and the glosso-facial. The nerves are principally furnished by the carotid 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 Chauveau, A.
