Franklin Dexter 17 commissure has materially increased in size, and is found in its usualposition. Anterior to this commissure a fold in the roof of the ven-tricle might easily be taken for the epiphysial opening, but such is notthe case. The posterior velar arch has again changed its shape. Whatwas formerly described as the horizontal arm is now distinctly ascend-ing and forms with the perpendicular arm a fairly acute angle, with adirection of upwards and forwards. The perpendicular arm has notaltered its position, but the choroid plexus springing from it is thor-oughly well developed, lying in many folds, some of which have beencut transversely and therefore appear separated from the roof of theventricle. The velum transversum is very much changed in appear-ance. The mesenchymal tissue has thinned, its choroid fold is veryprominent, and but for its specific position it would Ije impossible todifferentiate it from any otherfold of the choroid plexus.(
