In rabbit the external carotid artery is the larger of the two terminal branches of the common carotid artery. It detaches the linguofacial trunk, occipital artery and a common stem for the caudal auricular and the superficial temporal arteries, then the parent vessel continues as the maxillary artery. On the surface of the face, the facial artery gives off the interior labial artery then continues as the superior labial artery. The lateral, intermediate and medial auricular branches ramify on the convex aspect of the convex aspect of the auricular cartilage and anastomose near its apex.
