The pancreatic islets are classified as belonging to the solid, non-storage type of endocrine gland. 2. Pituitary Gland (Hypophysis Cerebri) Previous to the latter part of the last century, the function of the pituitary gland was presumed to be one of mucous secretion, hence the name pituitary from the Latin, pituita, a nasal secretion. It was so regarded by Vesalius in 1543. The English anatomist, Willis, believed that the pituitary gland secreted the cerebrospinal fluid. The pituitary gland (fig. 365E and I) is composed of three main parts as follows: a. Anterior Lobe The anterior lobe (pars anterior) is composed of two subdivisions: (1) a large anterior lobe (pars distalis), and (2) a smaller glandular mass (pars tuberalis)..
