The inferiorborder of the chorda vocalis is continuous with the lateral expan-sion of the crico-thyroid ligament. The superior border forms thelower boundary of the ventricle of the larynx. The space betweenthe two chorda vocales is the glottis or rima glottidis. 4. The ligaments of the epiglottis are five in number, namely,three glosso-epiglottic, hyo-epiglottic, and thyro-epiglottic. The glosso-epiglottic ligaments (frsena epiglottitis) are three foldsof mucous membrane, which connect the anterior surface of theepiglottis with the root of the tongue. The middle of these containselastic tissue. The hyo-epiglottic ligament is a band of elastic tissuepassing between the anterior aspect of the epiglottis near its apex, andthe upper margin of the body of the os hyoides.
