WILLARD: CRANIAL NERVES OF ANOLIS CAROLINENSIS. 109 
EXPLANATION OF PLATES. 
All figures are from Anolis carolinensis. The projection drawings, figures 
4, 5, and 6, and the drawings of transverse sections are from the same series 
of sections (designated “‘ Anolis trans. 30’). In figures 4, 5, and 6 the outlines 
of the head, the brain and the eye are indicated. The places of passage of the 
nerves through bony foramina are indicated by circles. The drawing from a 
dissection, figure 7, is made to conform as nearly as possible to the size of the 
projection drawings, although it was taken from a somewhat larger specimen. 
Note.— Since the nerves and muscles are readily distinguishable in the 
figures, the abbreviations mu. (for muscles), n. (for nerve) and rm. (for ramus) 
are omitted in text and plates. The colors used have the following meanings :—
