%X The skull of the monkey was analysed experimentally. The strains around the supraorbital node differ from those in the calf (Tucker 1956c). The lateral wall of the brain case shows depressions related to the forces applied in the glenoidal cavity. The palatine bone in the monkey is replaced functionally by the lateral pterygoid lamina in the squamoso-maxillary tract. Three functional1y different areas at the base of the skull are described and illustrated.
