Using a microscopic measuring method we were able to detect minor regions of asymmetry in the zygomatic arches of rabbits in which the common carotid artery had been ligated. These are considered in connection with the (also slight) asymmetric gains in the dry weight of the muscles of mastication in the ligated animals (see 2nd Bulletin).
