. The anatomy of the domestic animals. Veterinary anatomy. 90 THE SKELETON OF THE HORSE notch of the ulna. The lateral condyle (Conclylus lateralis) is much smaller and is placed somewhat lower and further back, giving the extremity an oblique ap- pearance ; it is marked by a wide shallow groove. The coronoid fossa (Fossa coro- noidea) is situated in front, above the groove on the medial condyle; it furnishes origin to part of the extensor carpi, and lateral to it is a rough depression from which the common digital extensor arises. Behind and alcove the condyles are two thick ridges, the epicondyles. The medial epicondyle (Epicondylus medialis) is the more salient; it furnishes origin to flexor muscles of the carpus and digit, and bears a tubercle for the attachment of the medial ligament of the elbow joint. The lateral epicondyle (Epicondylus lateralis) bears laterally the condyloid crest (Crista cond\-loidea), which forms here the outer boundary of the musculo-spiral groove, and gives origin to the extensor carpi radialis. Below this is a rough excava- tion in which the lateral ligament is attached. The distal border of the epicondyle gives attachment to the ulnaris lateralis. Between the epicondyles is the deep olecranon fossa (Fossa olecrani), into which the processus anconseus Fig. 65.—Pi 1, Intertuberal (or bicipital) groove: 2, 3, anterior parts of lateral and medial tuberosities: 4, fossa: 5, 6, posterior parts of lateral and medial tuberosities: 7, Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Sisson, Septimus, 1865-1924.
