We have studied the morphology of the anatomical structures that permit communication between the anterior chamber and the sinus venosus sclerae. Examination of the posterior or inner wall of this canal, represented by the sclerocorneal trabecula, in 15 species of primates and 5 adult humans, has enabled us to observe the existence of some small orifices or stomata that are the outermost part of the so-called Sondermann’s canals, which in our opinion are made by the successive confluence of the interstices worked in the interior of the sclerocorneal trabecula by means of contraction of the longitudinal portion of the ciliary muscl
