Muscle of parietal fossa (inserted on endolymphatic pouch). Weber, 1820. 4. Utriculus divided into anterior and posterior sections, not directly connected with each other. Retzius, 1878, 1881. 5. Otoconia instead of otoliths. Breschet, 1838. These peculiarities were discovered many decades ago; most of them are in general ignored by present day comparative anatomists and writers of laboratory manuals.
