X J. It has been seen that llic instances of abnormal human nuiscular development described by Testut, Fromont, and the writer con- firm the comparative anatomical evidence taken from a wide field by Kisler, McMmrich, anil Kajava for the theory of end-to- end fusion to the extent that they reveal a tendency toward the formation of short suiierficial digital flexors in man. But at the .same time the anomalies of Fromont and the writer present a difficulty for the theoiy in the simultaneous occurrence of the short superficial flexors and the tendons which are .supposed to arise fro:n them. Observations of a like condition in the.
