The extremities of the allautoid comuu appear to have pierced the chorion : they form a point covered with a yellow, mucus substance, and separated from the n st of ihe membrane by a circular constrictitm. This part is beneath tiie chorion, like the remainder of the membrane, only the vessels do not extend beyond the constriction; so that the elements of the chorion and allantois here undergo a kind of moitiheation. The allantoid infundibulum is encircled by a vascular network that accompanies it throughout tue umbilical cord.

The epithelium is only stained by iodine at these patches, or villi. These productions are surrounded at their base by a girdle of glycogenic cells. In the foetus of the Cow, at a late stage of gestation, the amniotic fluid is not abundant, and becomes white and viscid; in one instance we found it stringy, like a solution of
