Thus we see that the peroneus. FIG. 62.—The skeleton of the left foot of a Eaven, seen from the side ; designedto show passage and insertion of tendons, &c.

According to Sir Richard Owen, the present muscle inthe Apteryx behaves in a very similar manner in thelower part of the leg to what I have just described THE MUSCLES OF THE LOWER EXTREMITY. 211 for the Raven. We find in the Apteryx that the peroneus longus arises tendinous from the head ofthe tibia, and by carneous fibres from the upper halfof the anterior margin of the tibia; these fibres passobliquely to a marginal tendon, which becomes strongerand of a rounded form, where it leaves the tendon gives off a broad, thin, aponeurotic sheath,to be inserted into the capsule of the t
