Carpenter's principles of human physiology . Gustatory bulbs from the lateral gustatory organ of theRabbit. Mag. 450 diam. SENSE OF TASTE. 711 Fig. Transverse section through a eireumvallate papillaof a Calf, showing the arrangement of the gustatorybulbs. Fig. 255. gustatory bulbs, or taste-buds. These are flask-shaped bodies (Fig. 253),which are disposed in a zone encircling the sides of the papillse circumvallatse(Fig. 254), a few being also found onthe outer wall of the vallecula, or thatwhich looks towards the estimated the number pre-sent in one eireumvallate papilla of theSheep at 480, and in one such papillafrom the Ox at 1760. They are alsofound, but more irregularly distributed,upon the fungiform papillse. The bulbsare composed of groups of cells (), which occupy flask-shaped cavi-ties in the mucous membrane. Thebottom of the cavity is formed by the fibrous layer of the mucous membrane,its sides are composed of cells, and the slender short neck perforates thecorneal lamina, opening on the surface by a small circular mouth, which maybe called the gustatory pore. The length of the bulb is about OOSO
