The results at which I have arrived after studying these microscopi- cal preparations are entirely different from those which Gadow pub- lished in his paper ahead}' referred to. Each appendage consists of an inner cutis papilla and an epidermal outer layer of very peculiar appearance. This outer layer is made up of many longitudinal ridges of epidermis cells, between which are found deep longitudinal grooves. These grooves are filled with the cutis tissue. In transverse section (Fig. A) this condition is very conspicuous, reminding one somewhat of the transverse section of a developing feather. The stratum corneum is not thick, but quite distinct, and outside this is still another continuous external layer of horny cells, which form a kind of loose covering, thus indicating that these appendages,.
