By a very gradual series of changes of these cascal processes, within the limits of tlie class of Fishes, they be- come massed into a body, fig. 282, d, like the conglomerate gland, called' pancreas' in Man. The secretion of the rudimen- tal representatives of this gland is so like the fluid which the ordinary mucous surfiice of the intestine eliminates and sets free from its capillary system, that conditions of the ordinary alimentary tract exist in some Fislies which render needless "â the devclopemeut of the spe- cial accessory surfaces.
