The pars tuberalis forms a collection of branched tubules lying betweenthe body of the pars distalis and the diencephalic floor anterior to theinfundibular process. It is still connected by a cell cord with the ventralside of the pars buccalis. The Development of the Hypophysis Cerebri, etc., in Marsupialia 223 The infundibular process has increased somewhat in size, but is stillrelatively small, and is hollow. Its walls have increased in thickness to aslight extent. Seessels pocket can be clearly identified in the posterior portion of thehypophysis. Its caudal portion is free, and is separated from the sub-stance of the pars buccalis by a definite connective tissue sheath. Itscaudal extremity retains its original form and relations, lying partly. Fig. 39.—Stage I. Phascolonujs mitcheUi{ 85 mm.). Longitudinalsection through hypophysis and Seessels pocket. SI. 8-2-8.

The anterior portion of Seessels pocket fuses with theventral side of the pars distalis and becomes absolutely indistinguishablefrom it (fig. 38, ).
