Its duct (called Wharton's duct) runs forwards beneath the facial vein and opens on the minute salivary papilla before described as being situated beside the frajnum of the tongue. There are two accessory submaxillary glands which lie side by side (separated by the facial vein (Fig. 88, Jv) immediately adjacent to the lower and anterior end of the principal submaxillary gland. Another gland, called zygomatic, is of rather large size and pyra- midal shape. It lies beneath the globe of the eye on the orbital plate of the maxilla and inside the anterior end of the zygoma. It opens in the mouth behind the upper true Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these
