The m. infrasjimatus re- presents the VI. infraspina- tus, teres major and minor oî human anatomy. It is of triangular form, with the broad base directed in- wards ; it arises from the whole of the upper sur- face of the suprascapula except along the inner border which is formed of hyaline cartilage alone : from this origin the fibres converge outwards to a fiat tendon which unites with that of the m. latis- simtis dorsi to be inserted into the crista deltoidea hu- meri, by means of a thin, triangular, tendinous ex- pansion.
