From the resemblance of the aponeurotic expansions of the sartorius tendon to the foot of a goose, it is called by the author /« anserinus, but it is to he noted that this name is given by English anatomists to an entirely different strnclureâto wit, the plexus formed in the substance of the parotid gland and on the side of the face by the freely communicating twigs of the temporofacial and cervicofacial branches of the facial nerve, known also as the " parotid plexus " (see l''ig. 1314, p. 871, sect. vi. of this work).âTr.
