A complex muscle, which is represented in the Horse by tliu anterior extensor of the phalanges, and the tendon of the flexor metatarsi. Single at its superior extremity, which begins by a tendon arising from the digital fossa situated between the trochlea and the external condyle of the femur (Fi^. 205, 1), this muscle comprises lu its middle part three fleshy divisions, whicli are terminated inferiorly by tendons. One of these divisions, situated in front of, and within the other two, has its tendou prolonged to the extremity of the principal metatarsal bone, and is also inserted into the cuneiform bones. It is a flexor of the metatarsal region, and replaces the tendon which performs this function in Solipeds (Fig. 203, 2). The second, placed external to the preceding, con- stitutes a common extensor of the d
