The lowest gland of the group, which receives a communica- tion from the submental glands, lies on the lateral surface of the internal jugular vein immediately above the omo-hyoid muscle. The highest members of the group may be under cover of the postero-medial surface of the parotid gland, in associa- tion with the p
