This partial fusion of the vagina; of the marsupials is completed in the placental mammals, the single vagina and the sinus forming a single canal (fig. 605). Here the uterine portions may remain distinct (uterus duplex or rodents. A), or they may fuse partially (uterus bicornis of insectivores, whales, ungulates, and.

Thus there are three different types of the female genitaha, in which the vagina is not differentiated (Ornithodelphia), or is double (Marsupi- alia), or is single and unpaired (Monodelphia). To these correspond three types of development. The Ornithodelphia are oviparous, the.
