. The cyclopædia of anatomy and physiology. Anatomy; Physiology; Zoology. Two views of the Inferior Larynx of the Mergus Serrutor. by bones, and that on the external ring h. The os transversale is very small and does not reach the free edge of the internal mem- brane b, which is similar to that of the Atergns serrafor, thus leaving a communi- cation open between the right and left side of the cavity of the larynx, through which the air from the left lung must pass to reach the tube of the trachea, which terminates on the superior part of the right side of the larynx. The right side is chiefly surrounded by bone externally, having a very small oval membrane anteriorly, and is furnished with a small tympanic membrane at its junction with the bronchus. The salient portions of these membranes, and the small membrana tym- paniformis are best adapted for putting the air into a state of vibration, reinforced by * The area of this channel is increased by an osseous cavity which is formed by the posterior "con- cave surface of the ridge g, lying externally in front of the larynx. f Beneath the inferior point of attachment of the internal lateral membrane, the above-mentioned conical osseous cavity passes vertically downwards c terminating between the bronchi in a kind of cul de sac. the chambers of which the larynx is com- posed.
