Awad, A. (Zagazig Univ. (Egypt). Faculty of Veterinary Medicine)
The morphological features of the lingual epithelium of ferret were studied with a special reference to the papillae. The rostral 2/3 of the dorsum was characterised by the presence of a rasp like area due to the filiform papillae. Then, it was followed by a smooth relatively triangular area free of papillae or folds except 2 vallate papillae present caudally in that area. The most caudal area of the dorsum showed irregular folds except transverse folds of the foliate papillae laterally. Four subtypes of filiform "two simple and two compound", fungifrom, 2 vallate and rudimentary foliate papillae were identified. Most of fungiform and the vallate papillae carried taste buds.
