The dorsal straight muscle of the head, m. rectus capitis dorsalis, extends from the axis to the occiput. It is the most superficial of the short muscles of the head. Origin: Muscular from the spinous process 2C. Insertion: The muscle has a very extensive mus- cular insertion on the occiput below the nuchal crest. Action: Extends the atlanto-occipital joint. Innervation: Dorsal branch of the first cervical spinal nerve. The lateral straight muscle of the head, m. rectus.
