The terminal organs oftaste consist of peculiar bodies named taste-bulbs or taste-goblets, discovered by Schwalbe and Lovfen in 1867. Theycan be most easily demonstrated in the papillx foliaise,large oval prominences found on each side near the baseof the tongue in the rabbit. Each papilla consists of aseries of laminae or folds, in the sides of which the taste-bodies are readily displayed in a transverse section. Taste-bodies are also found on the lateral aspects of the circum-vallate panillae (see fig. 1), in the fungiform papillae, in the.
