In all the three instances there werefound two male testicles with their , vasa deferentia, andvesiculse seminales ; and at the same time there was present a well-marked two-horned uterus, with a vagina, opening into the urethra. Fig. In the first case the large hollow cornua uteri terminated in blindextremities, and there were only very short impervious rudiments ofthe Fallopian tubes. In the second case, at the extremity of the righthorn of the uterus, a blind appendiculum was situated, formed by avestige (according to Mayer) of the Fallopian tube; and from this Fig. 27. an, the testicles; 6 6, epididymes; c c, vasa deferentia; d d, vesiculre seminales.

In the third case,both Fallopian tubes were present, and each ended in a bursa formedby the lamina of the peritoneum, and partly surrounding the testicleand epididymes. In two of the instances, the ejaculatory ducts seemto have opened into the urethra near the point at which the vaginaterminated in it; and in one of the cases they opened into the canalof the v
