Horseshoeing
Cross-section of keraphyllous and podophyllous laminæ (horny and fleshy
leaves): _a_, inmost part of the solid wall; the horn-tubes approach
very close to the horny leaves; _b_, body of the podophyllous membrane;
_c_, horny portion of a horn-leaf directly continuous with the middle
or principal layer of the wall; _c′_, a rudimentary horn-leaf that does
not reach the body of the podophyllous membrane; _c″_, cross-section
of horny leaves from the sides of which branch many secondary leaves
(leaflets) composed of soft (young) horn-cells. These soft cellular
horn-leaflets dovetail with the podophyllous or fleshy leaflets;
_d_, podophyllous laminæ extending from the body of the podophyllous
membrane; _d′_, podophyllous laminæ which have branched in their course
to the wall, and thus given rise to _c′_, rudimentary horn-leaves;
_d″_, cross-section of podophyllous leaflets extending from the
sides of the podophyllous leaves; each two such leaflets secrete a
keraphyllous leaflet between them; _e_, injected arterial vessels.]
[Illustration: FIG. 37.
Vertical section of the horny sole magnified: _a_, funnel-shaped
openings which contain the horn-producing villi of the fleshy sole;
they are of various sizes; _b_, horn-tubes; _c_, intertubular horn.]
[Illustration: FIG. 38.
Horny frog, with the posterior portion of the perioplic horn-band and
the periople which covers the quarters removed from the hoof as one
piece by maceration: _a_, trough-shaped depression of upper surface,
which is divided posteriorly into the two upper channels of the frog by
_b_, the frog-stay; _c_, part of the frog that is joined to the bar and
forms the lateral wall of the depression (channels) on upper surface
of frog; _d_, lateral surface of horny frog which, in its upper part,
adheres to the bar, but below, at _d′_, lies free; _e_, point or summit
of the frog; _f_, perioplic horn-band; _f′_, periople of the quarters.]
