The maxillary sinus is excavated chiefly in the maxilla, lacrimal, and malar, and is not divitled by a septum as in the horse. It extends forward as far as the facial tuberosity, or a little further in old animals. Its dorsal limit is indicated approximately by a line drawn from the infraorbital foramen to the upper margin of the orbit. It is continued into the lacrimal bulla to a point nearly opposite to.
