. The anatomy of the domestic animals. Veterinary anatomy. I,Y-MI'HAT1C SYSTEM OF THE OX AND SHEEP 723 long and an inch (ca. 2-3 cm.) wide. In some cases a second, smaller gland is present. Its position is variable; it may be behind or dorsal-medial to the large gland, or may be on the deep face of the ventral end of the mandibular salivary gland. Hffimolymph glands often occur in this vicinity. The efferent vessels come from the muzzle, lips, cheeks, hard palate, the anterior part of the turbinates and septum nasi, the gums (in part); the sublingual and parotid glands; the tip of the tongue, the muscles of the head, except those of the eye, ear, tongue, and hyoid bone; the mandible, premaxilla, and nasal bone; the skin of the face in part. It also receives the efferent vessels of the pterygoid lymph gland when present. The efferent vessels, two ti) four in number, go to the atlantal gland. The parotid lymph gland (Lg. parotidea) lies on the posterior part of the mas- seter muscle and is partly covered by the dorsal end of the parotid salivary gland. It is related deeply to the internal maxillary and superficial temporal vessels and the superficial temporal nerve. It is about three inches (ca. 6-8 cm.) long and about an inch (ca. 2-3 cm.) \\ide. In some cases there are instead two smaller Fig. 603.—Superficial Lymph Gl MaDdibuJar; ;?, parotid: 5. atlantal: 4- parapha S, prcfcmoral.
