Alligators
A pair of very small arteries, n², may be seen in the nasal chamber
between and parallel to the branches, n¹; they lie close to each
side of the nasal septum and supply the anterior nasal region. They
apparently arise, as shown by the broken lines, from the loop of the
superior dental artery, dm¹, though this could not be definitely
determined.
