Immediately in front of it is a deep infolding of the epiblast, which nearly meets the hypoblast (Fig. 61, an) and forms the rudiment of the anus and of the outer section of the cloaca into which the bursa Fabricu opens in the adult. It is known to embryologists as the proctodceum, but does not open into the alimentary tract till considerably later. The.
