Three pairs of teeth are present, two in the upper and one in the lower jaw, the two principal pairs of teeth are borne on the palato-pterygoids and splenials, while the third pair are found in the vomerine region.
The ethmo-vomerine region is always cartilaginous, but bears small teeth.
In front of these there are a pair of small conical vomerine teeth loosely attached to the ethmoid cartilage.
The upper tooth structures are attached respectively to the ethmoid orvomerine region of the skull, and to the palato-pterygoids.
The vomerine teeth are small, while those attached to the mandible and the palato-pterygoid region are large and bear several roughened ridges adapted for grinding food.
The patches of vomerine teeth lie between the posterior margins of the choanae.
Smith in the dry season were juveniles and subadults, the development of the vomerine ridges could not be diagnosed properly.
Hylella sumichrasti has been characterized as having no vocal sac, rarely having vomerine teeth, and as having a relatively smooth throat.
They include long strips like the vomerine bones in the Lias fossil, and they diverge in the same way as they extend back to the quadrate bones.
The numbers of maxillary, premaxillary, and vomerineteeth are summarized in Table 5.
The posteroinferior vomerine process extends directly posteriorly and then angles sharply posterodorsally, enclosing an ellipticalvomerine fenestra.
Upper parts almost uniformly Ochraceous-Buff; incisive foramen widest posteriorly; vomerine sheath complete; p4 and m2 with three counterfolds; m1 and m3 usually with two counterfolds.
Back and sides with more reddish; narrower interorbitally and across zygomata; palatilar length less and nasals shorter; maxillary part of vomerine sheath thicker; usually four instead of three counterfolds in M3.
Variation in number of vomerine teeth is shown in Table 1.
Most specimens have the vomerine teeth situated on V-shaped elevations, but in some individuals the elevations are more nearly transversely situated between the inner nares.
Other sympatric species are Hyla walkeri, which has a green dorsum with brown markings and a rather pointed snout, and Hyla sumichrasti, a small yellow frog usually lacking vomerine teeth.
Once the obstructing maxillary spine is cleared away it is easier to deal with any vomerine deformity.
It is then easier to lay bare any thickening or deviation of the nasal process of the superior maxilla, or of the chondro-vomerine suture--the usual sites of bony obstructions.
The black-spotted trout, forming the subgenus Salar, differ from Salmo salar and Salmo trutta in the greater development of the vomerine teeth, which are persistent throughout life, in a long double series on the shaft of the vomer.
In this genus vomerine teeth are said to be present, and there are three anal spines.
In many specimens the vomerine ridges are larger and more closely approximated medially than in the specimen described above.
Vomerine teeth 4-4, situated on rounded vomerine ridges between rather small ovoid inner nares; vocal slits present, situated along posterior edge of each ramus.
In males the total number of vomerine teeth varies from 4 to 7.
These specimens differ noticeably from the individual from Chinaja in the number of vomerine teeth and in coloration.
He stated that the vomerine teeth were about 12 in number and that in life the dorsum was mottled gray and black, the sides gray and brown, and the undersurfaces uniformly dark gray.
The number of vomerine teeth is variable; the number of teeth seems to be closely correlated with the size of the salamander (Fig.
Correlation between the number of vomerine teeth and snout-vent length in 79 Pseudoeurycea belli from Michoacan.
Taylor (1939a) distinguished gigantea from belli by the larger size, fewer intercostal spaces between adpressed limbs, more vomerine teeth, and absence of occipital spots in gigantea.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "vomerine" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
