The centrallymphatic (which sometimes consists of two vessels joined at theend by a loop, as shown in Fig. 88) communicates with the sub-jacent intermuscular lymph plexus. The adenoid tissue of thevilli is generally more developed in carnivora than in herbivora,in which, on the other hand, the central lymphatic is much wider
