THE SALIVARY GLANDS

EYE 



In all the five systems there constantly occur three cellular layers : the intima, 

 epithelial, and propria. As regards their origin Schiemenz states that Systems I 

 and IV are new structures, that System III arises in part, and Systems II and 

 V wholly, from the silk-glands of the 

 larva. As the glands differ much in 

 the sexes, and in different species 

 and genera, Schiemenz believes that 

 their function is very manifold. 



In addition to those previously dis- 

 covered by Schiementz, Bordas has 

 detected two additional pairs of sali- 

 vary glands in the worker and male 

 honey-bee, ?'.<. the internal mandibular 

 and sublingual glands, so that in Apis 

 there are in all six pairs, and appar- 

 ently one unpaired.
