They are found on the under surface of the apex of the tongue, and are covered by a bundle of muscular fibers derived from the Styloglossus and Longitudinalis inferior. They are between 12 and 25 mm (0.47 and 0.98 in) in length, and approximately 8 mm (0.31 in) wide, and each opens by three or four ducts on the under surface of the tongue's apex.
