MUSCLES OF NECK. 



155 



The musculature of the neck does not present many peculiarities. 

 The most striking feature was the long sternal tendon of the sterno- 

 cleido-mastoid and the considerable interval that existed between the 

 sternal and clavicular portions of the muscle (Fig. 4).

The cleido-occipitcUis or acr&mio-basilar muscle must also be re- 

 ferred to as it sometimes occurs in the human subject. Its insertion 

 in my case was immediately anterior to the clavicular insertion of the 

 trapezius. C'hampneys notes that it is found in all mammals below 

 man, and seems to be correlated with a quadrupedal gait (Fig. 4).
