There now appears in thissection the most dorsal portion of the main sensory root of thetrigeminus, just at the point where it is giving fibers to the sensorynucleus and where the most of its fibers are turning caudad as thespinal trigeminal tract. There also appear in the figure the root ofthe vestibularis and of the motor facialis. In Fig. 29 appear besides the sensory and motor roots and nucleiof the trigeminus, the motor facialis, the cochlearis, fibers of the - ,. Fig. 28.

Descrip-tion in text. trapezoid body, etc. The motor bundles of the trigeminus are col-lected opposite the cephalic end of the motor nucleus, except thebundle z, which still receives decussating fibers and is closely relatedto bundle a of the mesencephalic root. The fibers of the h-c areahave now collected into two fairly distinct groups of small bundles c are evidently joining the sensory root and are inter-mingled with the fibers which are passing caudad in the spinal tri-geminal tract. The other relations in this figiire will be clear fromthe labelling. 634 Journal of Comparative Neurology and Psychology. The following figures require little comment in addition to thedescription given beneath each. The sensory and motor roots nowrun on to their places of exit, the motor in front of the sensory.
