Reconstruction of Aortic arches in Pig embryo of the 20th day. X about 45. The most posterior arch in this embryo has been considered the sixth, both because of its great distance from the fourth, and because a fifth arch usually appears at a considerably later period. This vessel is complete in its ventral half, and at its blind termination gives off a posteriorly directed vessel which, though as yet small and broken in its course, appears to be an element of the pulmonary artery. Embryo of the twentieth day (number 2). This em- bryo is nearly of the same age as the preceding but shows variations.
