A description of the times of appearance and regression of marginal lingual papillae in human fetuses and newborns

“…(Habermehl, 1952)) "papilles p6rilinguales" in the pig (Adamesteanu et al, 19661, and "marginal papillae" in the dog (Evans and Christensen, 1979). Habermehl(1952) proposed that these papillae might be called "Saugpapillen," because of their function.…”

“…The papillary structures in some land mammals have been referred to as "papillae rhabdiformes" in the dog and Lycaon (De Beaux, 1924), "Randpapillen" in the pig, dog, cat, etc. (Habermehl, 1952)) "papilles p6rilinguales" in the pig (Adamesteanu et al, 19661, and "marginal papillae" in the dog (Evans and Christensen, 1979). Habermehl(1952) proposed that these papillae might be called "Saugpapillen," because of their function.…”

“…(Habermehl, 1952)) "papilles p6rilinguales" in the pig (Adamesteanu et al, 19661, and "marginal papillae" in the dog (Evans and Christensen, 1979). Habermehl(1952) proposed that these papillae might be called "Saugpapillen," because of their function. Although we previously described the very large papillae of dolphins as "papillary projections" to distinguish them from general lingual papillae of other mammals (Yamasaki et al, 1976(Yamasaki et al, , 1978, we here consider that such papillae in mammalian tongues should be uniformly described as "marginal lingual papillae" owing to their localization.…”

“…Although the existence of such papillae, or their vestiges, at corresponding regions of tongues of some toothed whales has been briefly described or illustrated (Mayer, 1843; Owen, 1868; Burmeister, 1869; Sonntag, 1922; Ping, 1927; Arvy and Pilleri, 1972; Chen and Chen, 1975; Slijper, 19791, the possible relationship of the presence of these papillae to the age of the animal has not been examined. Homologous papillae have also been observed in the tongues of perinatal stages in several kinds of land mammals (De Beaux, 1924; Habermehl, 1952; Adamesteanu et al, 1966;Evans and Christensen, 1979). In humans there have been a number of morphological studies on lingual papillae (i.e., on filiform, fungiform, foliate, and vallate papillae), but no descriptions of marginal papillae have been reported.…”

The Sublingua and Tongue of Tupaia (Scandentia, Mammalia): A Scanning Electron Microscope Study

“…A clear functional interpretation of all these structures seems hardly possible be fore the corresponding organs of insectivores and prosimians have been studied using the same methods. An accumulation of papillae at the tip of the tongue has been found in Homo [10], in neonatal Felis, Canis, Sus, Vulpes, Panthera, and Ur sus [11], and in adult Pongo [12], Tupaia [4], and Pan [13]. In this context, the occurrence of tentacle-like, elon gated papillae at the apex linguae in certain mammals must be mentioned: Tarsius and various other primates [14], Lemur fulvus [15], Microcebus [5], Didelphis, and Cheirogaleus [16].…”
