The following data concerning these branches should be noted: (1) the first ones are formed from the posterior portion of themetanephric diverticulum, and the process progresses in ananterior direction. This is the reverse direction of the usual orderof embryonic differentiation, but the reason for the order is thesame, viz., that differentiation begins in the first formed parts. (2) A po
