The m. cricothyreoideus. Figs. 29 and 31 picture this muscle insection, and figs. 34 and 38 give the appearance in reconstruction,both wax models and graphic representation. Its origin on theexternal surface of the arcus cartilaginis cricoideae is as in theadult. It inserts on the medial surface of the inferior margin ofthe lamina cartilagins thyreoideae. It is a well developed mus-cle with numerous evidences of fibrillations. However there isno division into a pars recta and pars obliqua as in the adult, nor DEVELOPMENT OF THE HUMAN LARYNX 55 —.

Drawn from the posterior aspect; the thyreoid cartilage has been partlyremoved above and posteriorly to admit of clearer view of muscles and nerves. THE AMERICAN JOURNAL OP ANATOMY, VOL. 12, NO. 1
