As the ner\'e traverses the orbit a number of branches are sent upward through the foramina supraorbitaHa to the related portion of the supraorbital canal. The maxiUar}' and the mandibular rami of the trigeminal nen.'e (Max. V. and Man. V. in Text-figure 119) come off separately from the Gasserian gangHon; there is no common maxillo-mandibular trunk. This condition is somewhat exceptional ainong elasmobranchs. Since, in Chlamydoselachus, the angle of the jaw is situated far posteriorly, the mandibular nerve leaves the maxillary early in its course and passes over the posterior wall of the orbit to reach the angle oi the mouth, as m Acanthias. The mandibular nerve does not supply the large median transverse muscle bridging the halves of the lower jaw in the gular region (Fiirbringer, 1903; Hawkes, 1906; Luther, 1909; AlHs, 1917 and 1923). This unique feature has been fully discussed (p. 399) in the section on the muscular Ple
