Delta Mes/)scapul(B—The delta of the mesoscapula (Fig. 44),—We suggest this as a suitable designation of the slightly elevated triangular rough surface at the vertebral end of the mesoscapula. § 394. Fossa Infraspinata—The infraspinous fossa.—This is the larger of the two ectal fossae, and is distinctly triangular in shape. It is overhung by the mesoscapula and metacromion. § 395. Fossa Supraspinata—The supraspinous fossa.—This is less regular in form than the infraspinous fossa, and its area is less extensive ; but the muscle which occupies it is larger than might be inferred, both on account of the inclination of the mesoscapula and its own projection beyond the coracoid border of the scapula. Mesoscapula—Spine of the scapula.—See above (§ 390). § 396. Metacromion—(Fig. 43, 67).—At its greatest elevation, near the glenoid end, the mesoscapula is produced over the infraspinous fossa as a quadrate or subtriangular pro- cess, the metacromion. Its ectal surface and free border are rough for the insertion of the MM. legator clamculm and acromio- A, GkjioicC ind. of ri^ht , bicipltaie Acromion., -fossa, gltnoidea.

Tuberositas [Mesoscapula)— The tuberosity of the spine of the scapula.—At about midway between the tip of the acromion and the delta the mesoscapula is thickened and roughened, constituting the tiiberosity. § 398. Explanation of Fig. 45, A.—This shows the glenoid end of a right scapula. The bone is so placed that the acromion appears 1 ess pointed than the metacromion, the infraspi- nous surface of the mesoscapula is much foreshortened, and only a part of the glenoid border is shown; the coracoid border is not represented at all.
