The External Organs of Generation
- The cloacal membrane, composed of ectoderm and endoderm (entoderm), originally reaches from the umbilicus to the tail.
- The mesoderm extends to the mid-ventral line for some distance behind the umbilicus, and forms the lower part of the abdominal wall; it ends below in a prominent swelling, the cloacal tubercle.
- Behind this tubercle the urogenital part of the cloacal membrane separates the ingrowing sheets of mesoderm.
- The first rudiment of the penis (or clitoris) is a structure termed the genital tubercle (phallus); it is derived from the phallic portion of the cloaca which has extended on to the end and sides of the under surface of the cloacal tubercle.
- The terminal part of the phallus representing the future glans becomes solid
- the remainder, which is hollow, is converted into a longitudinal groove by the absorption of the urogenital membrane.
entoderm - is a historic term for endoderm.
phallus - is a historic term for genital tubercle.
