Where the chorda tympani fibersleave the lingual there is a small ganglion which has received thename of submaxillary ganglion. The nerve fibers to the glands 48 754 PHYSIOLOGY OF DIGESTION AND SECRETION. pass close to this ganglion, but Langley has shown that only thosedestined for the sublingual gland really connect with the nervecells of the ganglion, and he suggests, therefore, that it shouldbe called the sublingual instead of the submaxillary ganglion. Thenerve fibers for the submaxillary gland make connections with nervecells lying mainly within the hilus of the gland itself. The supplyof sympathetic autonomics has the same general course as thosefor the parotid,—namely, through the cervical sympathetic to thesuperior cervical ganglion and thence to the glands.
