%X the epididymal region of the pigeon consists of a mass of tubules attached to the dorsomedial surface of the testis, and comprising proximal and distal efferent ductules and a short epididymal duct. the efferent ductules are lined by a stereociliated pseudostratified epithelium and the epididymal duct by a nonciliated pseudostratified low colummnar epithelium. the morphometric evaluation showed that the proximal efferent ductules have the greatest calibre (x = 283,64 ¦̀m) in epididymal region, with possible physiological envolvement in seminal fluid resorption
