(After Wiedersheim.) From the lower end of the scapula two bars extend toward the middle line. The anterior of these consists of a bar of hyaline cartilage, the procoracoid, in front of, and partly inclosing which is a membrane bone, the clavicle. At its outer end the clavicle is bent forward, and applied to a forward projection of cartilage, the acromion, at the lower end of the scapula. The posterior bar, the coracoid, is a.
