摘要

Abstract

The orbit of the bowhead whale is quite modified

shows much more variation in comparison to that of the better studied mammals

and is composed of the maxillary bone

lacrimal bone

frontal bone

temporal bone

zygomatic bone

parietal bone and sphenoid bone. The whale’s eyeball usually protrudes beyond the bony orbital rim

based on the observation of this study. Our observation in this study that the whale has an enclosed orbit differs from that of Prince (1956)

who mentioned that the whale has an open orbit.
