From behind. From M'ithout.<br />

The pars perpendicnlarig (0. T. vertical plate) ascends as a thin leaf <strong>of</strong> bone verti-<br />

cally upward fi-om the lateral margin <strong>of</strong> the pars horizontalis. The medial fades nasalis is<br />

smooth and presents two ridges extending from before backward, an upper, shorter, crista<br />

ethmoidalis (0. T. superior turbinated crest), for the attachment <strong>of</strong> the concha nasalis media,<br />

and a lower, crista conchalis (0. T. inferior turbinated crest), for union with the concha<br />

nasalis inferior. The lateral surface, fades maxillaris, is for the most part rough and unites<br />

with the posterior, rough portion <strong>of</strong> the fades nasalis corporis maxiUae, so that it covers over<br />

a portion <strong>of</strong> the hiatus maxillaris from behind; it is attached behind to the anterior margin<br />

and the medial surface <strong>of</strong> the lamina medialis pr(jc. pterygoidei oss. sphenoidalis. Between<br />

these two areas, extending from above downwards, is the smooth, shallow sulcus pterygopalatinus.<br />

Through the attachment <strong>of</strong> the fades maxillaris to the two bones mentioned this forms<br />

together with the sulcus pterygopalat. <strong>of</strong> the proc. pteryg. oss. sphenoidalis and a groove on<br />

the upper jaw bone, above, the fossa pterygopalatina , open lateralward (for the aa. maxill.<br />

int., palat. descendens, sphenopalat. ; nn. zygomat., sphenopalat., alveol. sup., infraorbit. ; gangl.<br />

sphenopalat.) , below, the canalis pterygopalatinus (0. T. posterior palatine canal) (for the a.<br />

palat. descendens; nn. palat., rr. nasal, post. inf. gangl. sphenopalat.), closed also externally<br />

by the proc. pterygoideus oss. sphenoid, and the upper jaw; it is continued below into the<br />

canales palatini (for the aa. palatinae major et minores ; nn. palat.) which usually run in the<br />

proc. pyramidahs alone. Prom the upper margin <strong>of</strong> the pars perpendicularis extend two processes,<br />

the processus sphenoidalis bent somewhat backward and markedly medianward, which<br />

lies on the inferior surface <strong>of</strong> the body <strong>of</strong> the sphenoid and on the ala vomeris, and the processus<br />

orbitalis forward and somewhat lateralward. The latter is bulged out and contains a<br />

small cavity whicli helps to close the posterior ethmoidal cells. Its lateral, smooth surface<br />

forms the most posterior part <strong>of</strong> the floor <strong>of</strong> the orbit ; in front and below it meets the fades<br />

orbitalis corporis maxillae (sutura palatomaxillaris), in front and above the lamina papyracea<br />

oss. ethmoid, (sutura palatoeihmoidalis) , behind and above the anterior margin <strong>of</strong> the latn-al<br />

surface <strong>of</strong> the body <strong>of</strong> the sphenoid (sutura sphenoorhitalis) ; behind and below it lies free<br />

and helps in part to form the medial portion <strong>of</strong> the fissura orbitalis inferior, in part it looks
