A comparable deepening of the ligamentum latum occurs in man and the Ruminants, and there is a similar enlargement of the tuba in the camel and in the swine. In the latter, however, the ovary is quite hidden in an egg sac. In Balaenoptera the ovary lies free upon the ligamentum latum. The oviduct or Fallopian tube in the 2-1 m. foetus was a coiled tube o-6 cm. in diameter (Fig. 13 c), involved in the attachments of the ligamentum to the ovary. It exhibited four successive U-shaped bends before joining the uterus. From the ostium abdominale, which looked backwards, the oviduct ran forwards for a very short distance and then turned ventrally back upon itself, forming an elbow the apex of which looked ventrally and rostrally (Fig. 14). The middle part of the course of the Fallopian tube was parallel with the long axis of the ovary and measured 3-5 cm. in a straight line. The duct takes three successive U-shaped bends in this region, an anterior and a posterior one with dorsally directed apices, and a middle one with a ventrally directed apex. The third FiS- r4- Diagram to show the course r , , . , . , /T->. , . of the Fallopian tube or oviduct in part of the tube is nearly straight (Fig. 14), turning {he pin (Left} slightly outwards and finally mesally to join the uterus. The ovarian funnel or ostium abdominale (Fig. 13 b) is wide and funnel-shaped and is provided with simple processes (fimbriae) covered w
