. The comparative anatomy of the domesticated animals. Veterinary anatomy. 372 THE DIGESTIVE APPARATUS IN MAMMALIA. COMPAKISON OF THE SALIVABT GLAKDS OP MAN WITH THOSE OP ANIMALS. As in animals, the parotid is the most voluminous of the salivary glands. Its tissue is reddish-grey and lobulated, the lobules adhering closely to each other. Its shape is irregular, and it is moulded to the excavation behind the angle of the jaw. Stenon's duct passes across tlie masseter, and shows on its course some salivary lobules, forming what is named the accessory parotid (or soda parotidis); it opens opposite the third upper molar. The submaxillary gland weighs about half-an-ounoe. It is partly situated beneath the deep cervical fascia, and partly within the body of the lower jaw, between the mylo- hyoideus and hyo-glossus muscles. Its lobules are more loosely united than those of the parotid. Wharton's duct opens on the sides of the frsenum linguse by a small opening at the apex of a round papilla {carmicula suilinguaKs). The sublingual gland is analogous to that of the Ox and Pig. There are, in fact, two sublinguals; an anterior about the size of an almond, and furnished with a single excretory canal—the ductus BarthoUni, that terminates near Wharton's duct; the other posterior, formed by several isolated lobules with multiple excretory ducts, the ductus Hivimani. There are also labial, palatine, and lingual glands; with, besides, near the frsenum, a small conglomerate gland, the gland of Nulm, which has a special duct. THE PHARYNX. (FigS. 174, 175.) Preparation.—1. Study the general disposition and situation of this vestibule in the antero- posterior vertical section of the head (fig. 175). 2. In order to examine the interior conveniently, the head should be. separated from the neck, leaving attached to it a certain portion of the trachea and oesophagus; then by sawing across, either through or behind the temporo-maxillary articulations, all that portion of the cranium is r
