. A laboratory manual and text-book of embryology. Embryology. i6o THE DISSECTION OF PIG EMBRYOS FOR STUDY the union of the second branchial arches forms the copula.

The copula also connects the tuberculum impar with a rounded prominence which is developed in the mid-ventral line from the bases of the third and fourth branchial arches. This is the anlage of the epiglottis. In later stages (Fig. 151 A and B) the lateral mandibular anlages increase rapidly in size, are bounded laterally by the linguo-alveolar grooves, and fuse with the tuberculum impar which lags behind in development and is said to form the median septum of the tongue. According to Hammar, it completely atrophies. The epiglottis becomes larger and concave on its ventral surface.
