Abstract EN
Histologically the dorsal surface of rabbit tongue was Coverd by stratified squamous epithelium, from lingual epithelium progect me chanical papillae which represented by filiform papillae was similar to threads like and distributed on the entire dorsal surface of the tongue, and gustatory papillae were included , fungi –form like cone –shape or musbroow like, located at apex and dorso – lateral surface of tongue , contain few taste – buds in their walls while the circumrallate papillae wererounded in shapes and surrounded by trenches and their walls with numerous taste buds .
the foliate papillae similar to ridges that separated by groove.
the foliate papillae more developed in the rabbits tongue when compared with other mammalian tongue .
the core of the tongue consist of skeletal muscle bundles , interlaced in many direction (longitudinal, oblique, vertical and transverse)
