These muscles may be reflected, when the following dis-section will be seen. I. The plantar arch, situated between theflexor longus digitorum and interossei mus-cles ; the arch sends off in this situation thedigital arteries. It is accompanied by theexternal plantar nerve. m. The flexor brevis pollicis arises tendi-nous, from the under and fore part of the oscalcis, and from the os cuneiforme externumIt is united with the abductor and adductorpollicis, to be inserted into the externalsesamoid bones, and root of the first bone ofthe great toe. Action, — to bend the firstjoint of the great toe. 7i. The adductor pollicis arises by a lonffthin tendon from the under part of the oscalcis, from the os cuboides, from the ex-.

Action,— to pull the great toetowards the rest. o. The flexor brevis minimi digiti arises tendinous from the oscuboides, near the groove for lodging the tendon of the peroneus longus,and fleshy from the outer and back part of the metatarsal bone of thelittle toe, to be inserted into the anterior extremity of the metatarsalbone, and root of the first bone of the little toe. Action, — to bendthis toe. p. The transversalis pedis arises tendinous, from the under and forepart of the metatarsal bone of the great toe, and from the internal sesa-moid bone. It forms a fleshy belly, which runs transversely betweenthe metatarsa
