![(though rather smaller), and an upper triangular portion, very much smaller than the right upper lobe*. Fig. 4. The heart (fig. 5) is an elongated cone in form, measuring 2| in length, l-9 from side to side at greatest breadth, and 1| from before backwards when undistended. A single common anterior arterial trunk is given off from the aorta at its commencement. After a course of l‘3 in length, and having a diameter of 0-27, this gives off the left brachial (L B) from which the left vertebral is derived (L V). About a quarter of an inch beyond, the right brachial (R B) comes off; and immediately after, the trunk bifurcates into the two common carotids (R C and L C). The right vertebral (R V) is given off from the innominate trunk behind the origin of the right subclavian f. * The lungs of the Pudu have the same general arrangement as those of Moschus; but the right middle lobe is very little divided from the right lower. t In the Pudu, the anterior aortic trunk proceeds for 0*9) then gives off the left brachial, then after a further course of 0'5 gives off the right brachial and [8] The lungs, posterior aspect; half natural size. LU, left upper lobe; L, left lower lobe; RU, RM, and RL, right upper, middle, and lower lobes ; A, azygos lobe.](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b22455310_0010.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
