Diseases of the nose and throat . blique line and superiortubercle as well as from the inferior cornua and from the sides ofthe cricoid behind the crico-thyroid muscle.

Near its upper border the supe-rior laryngeal nerve and artery pierce the thyro-hyoid recurrent laryngeal nerve enters beneath its lower border behindthe crico-thyroid articulation. The stylo-pharyngeus arises from the base of the styloid processinternally and passes downward and inward between the superiorand middle constrictors. Its fibers diverge, some joining the palato-pharyngeus to be inserted into the posterior border of the thyroidcartilage, and the rest mingling with the constrictors. The palato-pharyngeus forms the posterior pillar of the arises from the aponeurosis of the soft palate by two heads sepa-rated by the insertion of the levator palati.
