CHAP. V. 



The Milt-Vejfels in the Male, with 

 their Apparatus, as they appear 

 in the Micro/cope. 



Hp H E firfr. Appearance I had of 

 * the Milt, or any Tendency to- 

 wards the Formation of the Milt- 

 VefTels, was about the Middle of 

 December ; before that Time I had 

 examined and differed feveral Ga- 

 lamaries, without the lead Indicati- 

 on of Milt or Roe in cither Male 

 or Female, tho' I had difcovered the 

 two Channels, thro* which the Milt- 

 Veffels are ejected, fome time before : 

 But as they had no other Appear- 

 ance at that Time, than that of two 

 collateral Tubes open at one Ex- 

 tremity, much refembling the Fe- 

 male Parts of Generation in a Snail, 

 and did not terminate in a long oval 

 J3ag extending in a Parallel with 

 the Stomach more than half the 

 Length of the Fifh, as I found them 

 afterwards, when the Milt-Veflels, 

 that filled the whole Cavity, were 

 fipe fpr Ejection ; I could then form.
