Heart Conduction System- Bird, Monotreme and Placental

It is interesting to compare the septal disposition of the right limb of the auriculo-ventricular bundle in the monotreme heart with that in the avian heart on the one hand and with that in the heart of the placental mammal on the other. The present study shows that the right limb of the auriculo-ventricular bundle in the monotreme heart, which reaches the free wall of the right ventricle in the form of five branches, is intermediate in its arrangement on the right side of the ventricular septum between that of the much-branched right limb of the avian bundle and that of the (as usually described) single unbranched right limb of the bundle in the heart of the placental mammal.
