Facial Vihriscae. — Of the buccal set, the naso-labial or 

 mystacial vibriscae are arranged in 5 rows (see fig. 3, A), 

 The superior row contains 2, the next 4, the next 6, the 

 next 7, and the lowest, or labial, 4, papillae, from each of 

 which a long, backwardly-directed bristle springs. The 



mental or sub- 

 mental set (E) con- 

 sists of a series of 

 far smaller papil-

 The interramal 



(B) is a large 

 papilla from which 

 3 or 4 elongated 

 and stout vibriscae 

 take origin. The 

 genal or zygomatic 



(C) is the largest, 

 and consists of an 

 ovoid and defin- 

 itely tuberculated 



mass giving origin to five stout vibriscae. The superciliary 

 or supraorbital (D) gives rise to only two vibriscae, and 

 though small is a very prominent and distinctly delimited 

 papilla situated above the fore part of the orbit. 



Brachial Vihriscae. — The ulnar carpal papilla (see fig. 4, 

 A), situated upon the volar surface of the forearm, is 

 present and well developed. From its summit 4 or 5 long
