The alveoli of these glands are identical with those of the mucous glands described above (Fig. 110)—, the sub- lingual gland, as re- gards size, tubular branched nature, the lining epithelium, and lumen. In some instances (as in the soft palate and tongue) the duct near the opening is lined with ciliated columnar epithelium. The stratified epithe- lium of the surface is generally continued a short dis- tance into the mouth of the duct. 253. The serous glands at the root of the tongue (von Ebner) differ from the mucous chiefly in the size, epithelium, and lumen of the alveoli. These are of exactly the same nature and structure as those of the serous or true salivary glands.
