Quain's Elements of anatomy. hem theinterarticular ligament; 6, lower, and 6, upper facetof the costo-central articulation ; 7, posterior costo-transverse ligament ; 7, the costo-transverse synovialcavity ; 7, the costo-transverse articular facet ; 8,anterior superior costo-transverse ligament; 9, superiorarticular process of the 5th vertebra; 9, inferior of the 9th. the cliondro-sternal articulations, and withone another by the interchondral three portions of the breast-bone areunited by the sternal articulations. The COSTO-CENTEAL ARTICULATION Uuites the head of the rib, in most instances, withthe bodies of two vertebr£e by two distinct synovial joints, supported by hgaments as follows. The anterior costo-central or stellate ligament consists of fibres which radiate from the head of the rib to the body of its proper vertebra, to the intervertebral •disc, and to the body of the vertebra above Short fibres surround the remaining portion of the articulation and complete a capsule to the THE ARTICULATIONS OF THE BIBS. 159 The interarticular ligament is a thiu and short band of fibres, which passestransversely li-om the ridge separating the two articular surfaces on the head of the ribto the intervertebral disc, and divides the articulation into two parts, each linedbj a separate synovial membrane. The ligament does not exist in the articulationsof the first, eleventh, or twelfth ribs, as these ribs are each attached to only onevertebral body by a single synovial joint. Conjug-al ligament.—In many mammals there is a band known as the lif/amcnfum conju-galc costavHut nnitinu the heads of opposite ribs acioss the back of the intervertebral disc. Thisligament is represented in man by fibres passing from the hinder part of the neck of the ribthrough the intervertebral foramen to the back of the intervertebral disc and the correspond-ing process of the posterior common ligament of the vertebrse (Jit/, conjiigale colli codee—Luschka).
