SECTION 6. The Literature of the Fcetal Membranes. 



I have tried to tabulate the various technical terms which have been 

 applied to the foetal membranes and to the parts of the placenta by the 

 more recent writers on salpa, and as a list of these synonyms is a neces- 

 sary aid to the reader, I print it here, the more willingly as it will serve 

 the purpose of a brief summary of the less important differences of 

 opinion. 



Epithelial capsule = cul-de-sac of Barrois (6). According to Barrois, 

 the primary epithelial capsule, before it becomes divided into the 

 epithelial capsule proper and the supporting ring, is the primitive 

 cul-de-sac, and after the differentiation the epithelial capsule in 

 the strict sense is the cul-de-sac. 



= Inner lamella of brood chamber (in Salpa 



democratica), Salensky (7). 

 = schildformigen Verdickung, Leuckart (9), 



p. 47. 



= Epithelhugel and Epithelialhiigel, eph, 

 Salensky (12), for the undifferentiated 

 structure. 

 = Ectodermkeim, Salensky (12), eck, for the 



epithelial capsule proper. 

 = Primitive uterus, and internal decidua of 



uterus, Todarro. 



Supporting ring = Couche peripherique du placenta, Barrois 

 of placenta (6). 



= Placenta, PL, Salensky (12), p. 100. 



= Eandwulst der Placenta, Salensky (12), 



p. 102. 

 = Direct decidua, Todarro. 



Placental membrane, Todarro. 



Cerchio blastodermico, Todarro, for its 



inner edge. 



Neck of placenta = Peduncle, Barrois. 

 Brood chamber = Uterine cavity, Barrois (6), p. 425, and 



Todarro. 

 Embryo-sac = Decidua reflessa, Todarro. 



= Faltenhiille, Salensky (12), Flh or Fhl or 

 Fh.
