According to Hennig, these muscular fibres extendalso deep into the gland, so that they surround, in interrupted layers,not only the excretory ducts but also the single gland-lobules. The nipple is pierced by from twelve to fifteen excretory ducts, whichare here so small that the finest bristle can scarcely penetrate them.
