With the growth of the pharynx the conus arteriosus, whichjoined the ventral aortae originally cephalad to the second arch,has moved caudad, and later opens almost directly into the thirdand fourth arches. This condition is represented in fig. 9. Herestill we see the plexus of the ventral aorta extending caudad fromthe ventral part of the fourth arch, as it did earlier from the sec-ond arch. Its plexus formation is easily recognized, as it liesin the thin sheet of mesoderm between the pharynx and the peri-cardial cavity, but it no longer crosses the median line on accountof the presence of the keel-like growth of the pulmonary anlagefrom the ventral wall of the pharynx.
