COMPARISON OP THE MUSCLES OP THE SHOULDER OP MAN WITH THOSE OP ANIMALS. As muscles of the shoulder, there are only described the deltoid, subspinatus, teres minor and major, and the subscapular is; the coraco-brachialis being included in the region of the arm, and the small scapulo-humeralis is absent (see Fig. 120). The deltoid, represented in part by the long abductor of the arm of Solipeds, is a large, triangular, flat muscle, Fig. 120. that covers the articulation of the shoulder. Its fibres are inserted into the external third of the anterior border of the clavicle, the external border of the acromion, and the inferior border of the scapular spine for the whole of its width; below, it is attached, through the medium of a tendon, to the deltoid imprint. By their disposition, the superspinatus, subspinatus, and subscapularis resemble the muscles of Carnivora The teres major, after establishing relations with the great dorsal, as in Solipeds, is fixed into the inner lip of the bicipital groove. MUSCLES OF THE ARM. These muscles, grouped around the humerus, are attached to the fore-arm by their inferior ex- tremities. Those situated in front flex this por- tion of the limb, while those behind extend it. The first form the anterior brachial region, the second the posterior brachial region, A.
