The physiology of the circulation in plants : in the lower animals, and in man : being a course of lectures delivered at surgeons' hall to the president, fellows, etc of the Royal college of surgeons of Edinburgh, in the summer of 1872 . ary, the right auriculo-ventricular orifice is occluded bya valve, which is partly muscular and partly tendinous; the mus-cular part, which is a continuation of two tolerably well-formedmusculi papillares, extending into the tendinous substance of thevalve, where it gradually loses itself. In the right ventricle of thecrocodile, a muscular valve, resembling that found in the rightventricle of birds, exists. In some birds the right auriculo-ventricular valve is altogethermuscular. It is usually described as consisting of two parts, fromthe fact of its dependent or free margin being divided into twoportions by a spindle-shaped muscular band, which connects itwith the right ventricular wall. As, however, the valve consistsof one continuous fold towards the base, and the two portions intowhich its free margin are divided, are applied during the systolenot to each other but to the septum, the valve in reality consistsof a singular muscular flap or fold, as shown at i of Fig. 139.
