In some tailed amphibians the vomers and splenials are known to arise by the fusion of small denticles. ❋ Unknown (1906)

(Figure 4) we see a pair of vomers (vo.) bearing teeth, a pair of palatines (pal.), [and a pair of pterygoids (pt.)] (which [palatines and pterygoids, we may note,] unlike those of the rabbit, are - stated to be - membrane bones), and a great median dagger-shaped para-sphenoid ❋ Unknown (1906)
