doubling on itself at the neck as figured by Daubenton in the Hyena. 
Its length is 1-7, its greatest diameter ‘8’. It passes gradually 
into the nearly straight cystic duct, which is ‘7! long. The hepatic 
duct is formed of two branches, one from the left and middle lobe, and 
one from the right lobe ; just before they unite, the cystic duct joins 
the former. The common bile-duct is 2" long, and enters the duo- 
denum about 2" below the pylorus, after running very obliquely 
through the intestinal walls, and being joined by the pancreatic duct. 
The pancreas is very long and slender, 9" in length. 
The spleen is long, narrow, and flat. It has an oblique fissure on 
its outer surface near the upper end, and a slight longitudinal fissure 
near the middle of the same surface. The lower extremity is rather 
narrower than the upper. Its length is 72", its greatest diameter Le 
The right kidney was placed nearly an inch higher than the left. 
These organs are simple and of the usual form; 2'-4 long, and 1!'"4 
broad. The superficial veins have the same arborescent arrange- 
ment as in the Hyzenas-and Felide. 
The suprarenal bodies were placed close to the inner side of the 
upper end of the kidney. They have a flattened rhomboid form, 
and are larger at the upper end. The length of each is °9"; its 
width at the upper end °5", at the lower end °35".
