Continued back from the terminals of the precardinal veno-lymphatics (6a, fig. 28) is a vessel which passes obliquely over theaorta and oesophagus to enter the right postcardinal vein at thelevel of the Cuvierian ducts (7, fig. 28). Although it is morpho-logically a part of the precardinal veno-lymphatics, it will oftenbe treated separately and called the oblique vessel on account ofits diagonal course. The simplicity and size of this vessel varieswith the individual, but it is a constant factor in all of the early 420 OTTO F. KAMPMEIER.
