The other muscles are indicated by the same letters as in the preceding figures. so disposed that the coracoid bone, instead of ternal, is anterior; this arrangement, in fact, being anterior, as in mammalia, is internal, exists more or less in all oviparous verte- and that the acromion, instead of being ex- brata.

The other muscles as in preceding figures. The analogue of the great pectoral (fig. 191, 56) is composed of two superficial portions, one of which is attached to a ridge on the anterior part of the plastron, and goes to be inserted into the small tuberosity of humcrus: the other is much more extensive; it arises from a great portion of the internal surface of the plastron, and is likewise inserted by a flat- tened tendon into the lesser tuberosity of the humerus, but it is continued by an aponeu- rotic expansion, which spreads like a fan over the inferior surface of the arm, of the fore-arm : its tendon is united to that of the preceding. The analogue of the deltoid (fig. 191, 60 a, and 606) arises from the extremity of the acromion, and goes to be inserted upon the external surface of the sm
