[The structure of the nasopharyngeal duct of Tupaia glis (Diard 1820). A comparison with primates and European insectivores (author's transl)].

The nasopharyngeal duct of Tupaia glis was studied and compared with other Primates and some Insectivores. In T. glis as in other Primates the ductus nasopharyngeus is separated by the septum nasi into two parallel passages whereas in Insectivores it is a simple undivided duct.
