The opisthotic (intercalare), situated behind it,may cover the outer horizontal canal; but is often small, andsometimes absent (many Teleostei). As Huxley showed [229],the number and disposition of these otic bones is very constantamong Teleostomes, and many if not all of them can be identifiedin the terrestrial Vertebrates. 268 TELEOSTOMI The foramen magnum is hounded by paired exoccipitals at thesides, and a median basioccipital below. In the Teleostei (, 381) a median supraoccipital appears above (p. 326). Theexoccipitals, which are pierced by the glossopharyngeal, the vagus,. Fig. 237. Anm calm, L.
