The main part of the muscle, remotor a, is a large leaf-shaped, almost vertical bundle, with a dorso-lateral attachment on the epimeron of the fourth segment. Remotor b is fairly broad, but shorter than remotor a. It is located rostrally in the pleural muscle chamber and arises somewhat ventrally on the outer face of the vertical part of the posterior process of the endopleurite between the third and fourth epimera. Remotor c, which occurs between the other two heads, originates on the under surface of the stem and the anterior process of the endopleurite projecting from the junction of the fourth and fifth epimera. The fibres of all three parts of the muscle are inserted caudo-laterally on the proximal border of the.
