the reserve tooth or the posterior end of
the working molar has its place

Fig. 6, Section /'. The cut has partly gone
in front of the nasal tube, which has here a
nearly perpendicular direction, and has hit it
only superiorly and interiorly. The blind end
of the diverticulum from the nasal tube (p. 103)
is also in the section. The posterior part of
the orbit has been grazed. The posterior end
of the molar tooth, wholly surrounded by bone,
is in the section.
m. temporalis
end ot bony protuberance
posterior root of zygoma
glenoid surface

bony lamella surrounding the posterior end of maxillare
ethmoturbinal
air-sinus in maxillary
(comp. lig. 7)
Fig. 7, Section g. The cut has gone through the
large diverticulum of the nasal tube, but has fallen just
in front of the entrance to it, so that the lid in which
the cartilaginous plate is enclosed, appears connected
with the lateral wall (comp. tig. 10).

part combined with z. § nat. size.

Fig. 10. Transverse section through the same skull-fragment of which part is figured Plate 39 fig. 3; the
section is laid just before the molar tooth and is somewhat oblique, the upper end being the foremost. Catoptric
image. Seen from before. Somewhat more than half nat. size.
