Pars Papillaris.—The papillary layer of the corium lies incontact with the rete above, and is connected below with the deeperreticular portion of the true skin. Between the rete and the papilla?of the derma a hyaline substance is interposed which Unna believesmay be identical with the so-called cement-substance described asseparating the fibrillar of the corium. The basal membrane once THE CORIUM, 23 thought to be stretched between the rete ruucosum of the epidermisand the papillary layer of the corium, cannot be demonstrated toexist.

(After Biksiadecki.) The name of this portion of the derma is intended to describe itschief characteristic, the existence of numerous digital prolongationsof the corium, made up of delicate fibres of connective tissue, whichdo not interlace, and are abundantly provided with nuclei. Thepapillae spring each from a single, or several from a common, ovoidbase; their bulbous, conical, or blunt apices reaching into the rete,which also dips down between them. They differ in size in differentparts of the body, and also in their disposition and shape, being inplaces arranged in linear series, and in others in concentric whorls,with definite centres, producing thus crossing furrows, visible to thenaked eye as markings upon the o
