The preplantar fissureâa horizontal groove more or less ramified, which commences behind, between the retrossal and basilar processes, terminating in front in one of the foramina that penetrate the bone. 2. The patilohe eminenceâa roughened projecting surface, situated between the preceding fissure and the inferior border of the bone. The superior face is occupied by an articular surface formed by two glenoid cavities and a slight median ridge ; it comes in apposition with the inferior face of the second phalanx. The inferior (or solar) face, hollowed out like an arch, is divided into two regions by the semilunar crest, a salient line which describes ^'-- '^^- a curve forwards. The anterior region is perforated with very fine porosities, and corresponds to that part of the hoof named the sole. The posterior region shows, immediately behind the semilunar crest, a median imprint, and two lateral channels designated the plantar fissures. These originate at the root of tlie basilar process, are directed obliquely downwards and inwards, and open into the plantar foramina, the external orifices of two large canals which enter PLANTAR SURFACE OF THIRD ^j^g jjQ^g ^ud uultc lu Its luterlor to form the semilunar PHALANX. « o sinus. 1, Lower face, or sole \ 2, i, r, i n^^ ⢠^ â ^ -ii, wings, or retrossal pro- Borders.âThQ Superior describes a curve, with cesses; 4. internal border; the convexity forward, and presents : 1.
