(The German hippotomists designate this the cartilage of the tongue. It is only found in Solipeds, and was first described by Briihl, who gave it this desig- nation. Leyh states that it is composed of dense fibro-cartilage, surrounded by connective and adipose tissue ; that it is from 4 to 7 inches long, and f to 1 inch in thickness ; and that it commences about an inch from the anterior appendix of the hyoid bone.) A similar cord, but not so strong or well-defined, is sometimes found at the inferior surface of the free portion of the tongue. Intrinsic muscles.—In studying the proper substance of the tongue in two sections—one vertical and longitudinal, the other transverse—there is seen, under the dorsal mucous membrane, a layer of red fibres, close in their texture, and very adherent to that membrane. Amongst these fibres, there are some which aifect a longitudinal direction, but the majority are vertical or transverse, and all are interlaced in the most intimate manner. It appears as if this layer (the lingualis superficialis of Man) were perfectly independent of the other muscular fibres, the insertion of which it receives. It also forms a portion of those which writers have named the intrinsic muscles of the tongue, and which.
