ANATOMY IN A NUTSHELL. 403 cerebelli and the dura mater of the middle fossa from this ganglion. The three great branches of the fifth nerve, viz., the ophthalmic, the superior maxillary, and the inferior maxillary arise from this ganglion. Besides the Gasserian ganglion the fifth nerve has four other ganglia. (1) The Lenticular, ciliary, or ophthalmic ganglion, (Plate CCXIV) is about the size of a pin's head and is reddish gray in color. It is situated between the optic nerve and the External rectus muscle. The ophthalmic artery is generally on its inner side. This ganglion has three roots, (a) the sensory root which PLATE CCXVII.

This ganglion gives off five or ten short ciliary nerves from the anterior superior and the anterior inferior angles. These nerves pass with the ciliary arteries forward, one set above the optic nerve and.
