The distribution of oviductal vessels of eight Korean native pheasants was observed after Latex casts of vessels. Latex was injected into thoracic aorta and posterior vena cava of these birds for cast preparation. The results were as follows: 1. The arteries suppling oviduct of the Korean native pheasants contained A. oviductalis cranialis, media, caudalis and vaginalis. The veins drainaging oviduct were stretched along the following ateries and all of the oviductal vessels were situated on the left side of the body. 2. The anterior oviductal artery arose from the pubic artery of the left external iliac artery and distributed to the infundibulum and the magnum of the oviduct. 3. The middle oviductal artery arose from the left sciatic artery and distributed to the isthmus and shell gland of the oviduct. 4. The caudal artery arose from the left internal pudendal artery of the median sacral artery and distributed to the caudal part of uterus and the cranial part of vagina. 5. The vaginal artery arose from the left internal pudendal artery of median sacral artery and distributed to the caudal part of vagina.

Ulmus parvifolia has been used as a traditional folk medicine to treat the carbuncle in deep skin. In this study, the effect of water extract of root bark of Ulmus parvifolia (WUP) on the carbuncle, pain, inflammation and hypersensitivity was evaluated in animal models. The administration of WUP significantly decreased the size of Staphylococcus aureus ($10^8$ cells/mouse)-induced carbuncle, and also exhibited analgesic activity in the HAc-induced writhing syndrome at doses of 50-500 mg/kg. It also showed significant anti-inflammatory activity in the carageenin- and complete Freund's adjuvant-induced inflammation. In the histamine-induced anaphylaxis, it decreased the percent of mortality by protecting mice treated with Bordetella pertussis. In the immune responses in the mice sensitized and challenged with sheep red blood cells, the Arthus reaction determined by swelling of foot pad at 4 h after challenge, HA titer, HY titer and PFC which can be used to evaluate the humoral immune response were significantly suppressed by oral administration of WUP at doses of 100 and 200mg/kg. The cellular immune responses in the same mice such as delayed type hypersensitivity determined by swelling of foot pad at 24 h after challenge and RFC were also significantly suppressed in the same manner.
