Blood-supply.—Internal maxillary, niasseteric, and inferior alveolar arteries. Nerve-supply.—INIandibular nerve. 4. Pterygoideus lateralis (s. externus).—This muscle is considerably smaller than the preceding one, and is situated lateral to its upper part. Origin.—The lateral surface of the pterygoid process of the sphenoid bone. Insertion.—The medial surface of the neck, the medial part of the anterior border of the condjde of the mandible and the articular disc. Action.—Acting together, to draw the lower jaw forward; acting singly, to Ethmo- turhinates Dorsal meatus Septum of frontal sinuses meatus. ^y/o'hyoideuS 7 r -Occipito- ularis ^ Digastricus, posterior belly Digastricus, anterior helly Intermediate tendon Fig. 204.—S.^GiTTAL Section of Head of Horse, Showing Deep Pterygo-m-vndibular Region and Nasal and Cranial Cavities. 1, Cerebral compartment of cranial cavity; 2, cerebellar compartment of same; 5, tentorium osseum; 4. ten- torium cerebeili; 5, sphenoidal sinus; 6, hamulus of pterygoid bone-tendon of tensor palati cut off short at anterior border of hamulus; 7, mylo-glossus.

The latter action is due to the fact that the origin is nearer to the mediali plane than the insertion. Structure.—The muscle is almost entirely fleshj-,"and the fibers are almost longitudinal in direction. Some of them are inserted into the edge of the articular disc. Relations.—Laterally, the temporo-mandibular articul
