Sacro-coccygeus dorsalis (M. muscle lies along the dorso-median aspect of the tail, in contact with its fellow Origin.—The last three sac- ral spines and some of the coccy- geal spines. Insertion.—The dorsal sur- face of the coccygeal vertebrae. Action.—Acting together, to elevate (extend) the tail; acting singly, to elevate and incline it laterally. Structiire.—The muscle has a strong rounded belly. It is in- serted by means of short tendons which fuse with those of the next muscle. Relations.—Superficially, the coccygeal fascia; medially, its fellow; laterally, the sacro-coccy- geus lateralis; deeply, the verte- brae. 3.
