 (The ventral wall of the truncus, ventricle, and auricles has been removed.) 



A. c.a, carotid arch; car, carotid artery; c.gl, carotid gland; I. a, lingual artery; 

 pea, pulmocutaneous arch; pm, pericardium; r.au, l.au, right and left auricles; 

 s.v.c, superior vena cava; sy.a, systematic arch; tr.a, truncus arteriosus; v, ventricle. 



B. i.v.c, inferior vena cava; p.v., pulmonary veins; r.au., l.au., right and left 

 auricles; s.au., opening from sinus to right auricle; s.v.c, superior vena cava; s.v., 

 sinus venosus; tr\, branches of truncus cut across; v., ventricle. 



C. au.v., Auriculo- ventricular valves; c.a., carotid arch; c.ao., cavum aorticum; 

 ch.t., chordae tendineae; l.au., left auricle; o.p.v., opening of pulmonary vein; o.pc, 

 opening of dorsal division of synangium, by which blood passes from the cavum 

 pulmocutaneum to the pulmocutaneous arch; pc. a., pulmocutaneous arch; r. au., 

 right auricle; s.au., sinu-auricular opening with valves; si., first row of semilunar 

 valves; si'., semilunar valves of second row; sl'.l, the semilunar valve from which 

 the spiral valve starts; the line points to a small portion of the valve which has 

 been cut open; si'. 2, small semilunar valve at end of cavum pulmocutaneum; si'. 3, 

 a small part of a large semilunar valve, of which the rest extends across that por-

 sy.a., systemic arch; tr.a., wall of truncus arteriosus; tr'., one of the two bundles
