Comparative anatomical and neurohistological observations on the tongue of the northern fur seal ( Callorhinus ursinus)
Abstract Five fetal and ten adult fur seal tongue were investigated. The number and shape of the vallate papillae vary from one to five on the different tongues. They are intermediate between the fungiform and circumvallate papillae in their neurohistological features. There are a few taste buds on...
