FIG. 268. DIAGRAM OF THE VENOUS SYSTEM OF Salamandm maculoaa. 



Cand. V, caudal vein, which bifurcates at the posterior end of the kidneys (N, N) 

 to form the renal portal system (Nier.Pft.Kr) ; V.adv, V.rev, advehent and 

 revehent renal veins ; V,iliaca, femoral vein, which divides into an anterior 

 (ft) and a posterior (f) branch : the latter opens into the renal portal, and 

 the former (pelvic vein) unites with its fellow to form the abdominal vein 

 (Abd. V), and also receives vessels (*) from the cloaca, bladder, and posterior 

 part of the intestine. V.Cava inf. pars anter, and V. Cava inf. pars poster, 

 anterior and posterior sections of the postcaval ; Card. ant (Jug), and Card, 

 post (Azyg), anterior and posterior cardinal veins (i.e., the jugular 

 and azygos). Subcl, subclavian vein ; Duct.Cuv, precaval ; H, heart ; Z>, Z), 

 alimentary canal, from which the hepatic portal vein ( V. port] arises ; Lg, 

 longitudinal vein of the intestine; Lpft.Kr, hepatic portal system; L. V,
