The fibers of the rectus muscles extend longitudinally and may be interrupted by several narrow transverse bands of connective tissue (inscriptiones tendineae), which are commonly regarded as persistent myoseptums. The muscles which are most important in effecting the bending movements of the trunk constitute an extremely elaborate system massed along the vertebral column. Most conspicuous of these is the longissimus dorsi, which begins at the sacrum and pelvis and ex- tends forward, one on each side, dorsal to the vertebral column and lying in the angle between the neural spines and the transverse proc- esses of the vertebrae (Figs. 457, 458). It traverses the entire length of the trunk and has complex relations to many vertebrae. Along the.
