* Forms after ovulation, which occurs 24 - 48 hours after mating.
* Forms after ovulation, which occurs 24 - 48 hours after mating.
* The ovulating follicle collapses at ovulation and then the follicular cavity fills with blood to form a [[Corpus_Haemorrhagicum|corpus haemorrhagicum]].
* The ovulating follicle collapses at ovulation and then the follicular cavity fills with blood to form a [[Corpus_Haemorrhagicum|corpus haemorrhagicum]].
* Luteinization of the [[Corpus_Haemorrhagicum|corpus haemorrhagicum]] occurs within 4 - 5 days and gives rise to a corpus luteum.
* [[The_Ovary_-_Corpus_Luteum_Formation_-_Anatomy_%26_Physiology|Luteinization]] of the [[Corpus_Haemorrhagicum|corpus haemorrhagicum]] occurs within 4 - 5 days and gives rise to a corpus luteum.
* Regression of the CL occurs between 10 - 12 days after a sterile mating or just before parturition in the pregnant female.
* Regression of the CL occurs between 10 - 12 days after a sterile mating or just before parturition in the pregnant female.
* The corpus albicans, originating from the regression of the CL of pregnancy is hard, white or grey in colour and has no blood vessels on its surface. Corpora albicantia of different sizes (5 - 12 mm in diameter) can remain on the surface of the ovary of the female for a long time.
