The lateral part of the muscle is also less developed compared to that of Malaclemys and others and shows variations in its extent, never covering more than a small portion of the anterior and anterolateral side of the lung. M. S. P. ;. Fig. 11. Diagrammatic sketch of the di-spositiou of the respiratory muscles in Podocnemis. Six species belonging to the Testudiniuae, Testudo hcrmamii, Testudo graeca, Geochelone pardalis, Testudo horsficldii, Testudo Ideinnianni (Fig. 8) and Pyxis arachnoides (Fig. 9) have been examined. In all these except Pyxis arachnoides the muscularis striatum pulmonale is totally absent and a thin sheet of con- nective tissue is present in its place. In Pyxis arachnoides (Fig. 9) there is a poorly developed lateral part of the muscularis striatum pulmonale present, covering only a very small part of the anterior region of the lung. The presence of part of the.
