Studies of the morphology of the testicle have been largely qualitative in character. Quantitative data, however, exist with reference to gross weight, tubule diameter, tubule length, and cell counts. As examples may be mentioned the work of Bouin and Ancel, Hatai, Jackson, Massaglia, Latimer, and Ressesen and Carlsoii, who have rocordecl gross weights of the testicles of various animals. Siperstein, in addition to gross weights, also gives the diameter of the seminiferous tubules and diameter of nuclei of interstitial cells. Moore, in a later paper on experimental cryptorcliidism, gives gross weights and tubule diameters. Tl Tatson records seasonal changes in testicular diameter in the green finch. Riddle off’ers data on size and length relations in the right and left testes of the pigeon. Rasmussen, in his study of the seasonal changes in the marmot, employed cell counts of interstitial cells and records percentage weights of the testicles. Lengths of individual tubules were determined in the mouse, rabbit, and dog by Curtis. Huber and Curtis, writing on the seminiferous tubules in mammals, mention in an incidental way some quantitative data as to tubule length. Cunningham’s Nanual of Practical Anatomy, without citing the source of information, makes the statement that the human testicle “~ onsists of four to six hundred fine hairlike tuhcs, each of which is ahout 60 em.(two feet) long.”
