Note.—In the above figure is seen tlie posterior part of the plexus formed by the nerve-branches which pass through the three first subsacral foramina. That which escapes from the foramen between the sacrum and last lumbar vertebra, only gives a fine branch to this part of the plexus, and sends the greater portion of its fibres, in two cords, to the anterior part. This arrangement is not rare, and is generally seen, we believe, when there are only five lumbar vertebra: as is remarked in the Ass and Mule, and sometimes in the Horse. It will, therefora, be understood that ttie nerve deecribed by us as the first sacral pair becomes a lumbar Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Chauveau, A.
