It has an action similar to that of the m. tibialis anticus. III. Muscles of the Foot. A. Muscles on the Plantar Surface. 133. Ajwneurosis planiaris (Fig. 88 A,p). As already mentioned, the ten- don of the m. gasfrocnemins is, at the heel, continued into a strong aponeui'osis, and possesses at this place a thickening ^ The aponeu- rosis is of triangular form, the base directed towards the toes and attached to these. The lateral borders of this triangle are con- tinued into weaker fasciae, which are attached to the two long tarsal bones. The inner border in par- ticular gives a strong bundle of ' Lehmann, Ueber den Knorpel in der U. Zool. XTV, p. 109. (See also literature.
