In the wildOvis Ammon there is a lacrymal pit, and this,in Ovis Vignei, deeply impresses the facialplate of the bone. The premaxillaries in thesame wild Thibetan sheep join the nasalssuturally, but in the domestic Ovis Aries, thepremaxillaries, g, barely touch the the Nahura Argali (Ovis Nahura), the premaxillaries do notreach the nasals : nor is the lacrymal impressed with the pit.
