it is quite large and it is difficult to distinguish it from the penis. It con- 

 sists of the corpora cavernosa and the glans clitoridis. 



The stalk hydatid of Morgagni, when present in the female, is situated in 

 the broad ligament at the outer extremity of the ovary. Ii is a small peduncu- 

 lated sac, being a remnant of the pronephros. lis homologue in the male is 

 the stalk hydatid of Morgagni, for which see, Plate CCLXXVI. 



The preputium clitoridis is a fold, formed by the Labia minora, covering the 

 clitoris. 



The duct of Gartner (a relic of the Wolffian duct) is a straight canal ex- 

 tending from the parovarium through the broad ligament to the vagina. 



Bulbus vestibuli is a mass of erectile tissue situated on each side of the ves- 

 tibule beneath the mucous membrane. It is homologous to the bulb of the cor- 

 pus spongiosum in the male, while the pars intermedialis which is a continua- 

 tion of the bulbus vestibuli anteriorly is homologous to the corpus spongiosum 

 itself.

The paroophoron (parovarium) (organ of Etosenmuller) is a relic in the 

 broad ligament of the urinary portion of the Wolffian body. Ii is a tubular body 

 homologous to the organ ofGiraldes (Paradidymis) in the male. It is present 

 only in childhood and cannot always be recognized. 



The long tube of the parovarium is homologous to the tubeof the epididymis. 



The short tubules of the parovarium are homologous to therete testis and 

 the coni vasculosi in the male. 



Bartholin's glands are the vulvo-vaginal glands which are situated on each 

 side of the vagina posteriorly to the bulbi vestibuli. They are small racemose 

 glands about one-third of an inch Long and each opens with a due! near the 

 nymphse. Cowper's glands are the homologues of Bartholin's glands. Sec
