three strong digitations, each of considerable bulk. 

 The first of these slips arises from the outer aspect 

 of the second true dorsal rib (counting from before 

 l^ackwards) rather above the base of its epipleural 

 appendage. The other two slips arise from similar 

 points on the next two succeeding ribs, just above 

 the origin of the derrtio-ulnaris. The extremities of 

 these digitations of the serratus magnus anticus, are 

 strongly inclined to partake of a tendinous character, 

 and the first two may be more or less attached to the 

 interpleurapophysial membrane. They converge as

If the reader will refer to my dermo-ulnaris (No. 11 of the 

 present work) he will find that that muscle represents the pars 

 metapatagialis of the above synonymy ; so that the synonyms here 

 will probably stand thus —
