Retzius showed that in the snake those nerve-fibers that were connected with the sense cells in the vomero- nasal organ mingled with the bundle of fibers from the olfactory region of the nose and thus con- firmed von Brunn's suspicion that vo- mero-nasalfiberswere true olfactory fibers. Von Lenhossek pointed out that at least in the rabbit the sense cells were not limited to the thick- ;ened face of the vo- inero-nasal organ, as had been maintained heretofore, but were found upon the opposite thin face of the organ as well This observation was confirmed on the rat a few years later by Ramon y Cajal. Hair like terminations on the vomero-nasal sense cells, such as those that had been found in the olfactory cells, were sought for by a number of investigators but only traces of these structures could be found (von Brunn, Retzius, Read), probably because of the ease with which they are .destroyed in the preparation of "flip tlSSUG.
