. The anatomy of the domestic animals. Veterinary anatomy. large pointed conical papillae (Papillae conicse), which are directed toward the isthmus faucium and are covered with a horny epithelium. The largest of these have a length of about half an inch (ca. 1 to cm.) and are situated around the angle of the mouth and parallel with the cheek teeth. The orifice of the parotid duct is opposite the fifth upper cheek tooth. The buccal glands (Fig. 385) are very well developed, and are arranged in three parts. The dorsal part extends from the angle of the mouth to the maxillary tuberos- ity; its lobules are of a light yel- low color. The ventral part con- sists of a compact brownish mass which reaches from the angle of the mouth a short distance under the masseter muscle. The middle part consists of loosely arranged yellow lobules. The small ducts of these glands open between the papillae of the cheek. A linear series of large pa- pillae exists on the floor of the mouth on each side of the frenum Unguse. Xear these are foimd the openings of the small ducts of the sublingual gland. The caruncula sublinguahs, the pa- pilla on which the sub-maxil- lary duct opens, is wdde, hard, and has a serrated edge (Fig. 383). The hard palate is -nide. and is usually more or less pigmented. The bodj' of the premaxilla is covered with a thick layer of dense connective tissue, which has a thick, homy epithelial cov- ering—forming the so-called den- 1 tal plate or pad. The palatine ; ridges extend from this back- ' ward about two-thirds of the length of the hard palate; they , number 15 to 19. They are I nearly straight, and, with the j exception of a few at the poste- irior end of the series, are serrated on the free edge. A median raphe extends Ibetween the ridges. The posterior third of the palate is smooth. Between Ithe dental plate and the first ridge is the triangular papilla incisiva; on either side of this is a deep furrow, in which is the oral opening of tiu- ductus incisivu
