71. M. flexor digit i II bred* s. pfofundu* (Fig. 77/^2), 

 Duges, sous-carpophalangien de 1'index, n. 102. 



This flat muscle, covered by the preceding', has a tendinous origin 

 from the palmar surface of the os capitato-hamatum , together with 

 one head of the flexor gublinns, and is inserted into the basal 

 phalanx. 



72. M. flexor digiti II tertiv* (Fig. 78/62'). 



Duges, tendini-phalangien de 1'index, n. 103. 



A small, thin muscle which arises close to the foregoing from the 

 os capitato-hamatum. and is inserted into the basal phalanx (see 

 below, m. wteroaetu I'olari* I). 



73. 31. adductor diyiti II (Fig. 78 adz). 



Duges, metacarpo-me'tacarpien de 1'index, n. 90. 



This muscle represents the adductor poUici* of man ; it arises from 

 the base of the third os metacarpal and is inserted into the metacarpal 

 of the second finger, which latter it draws towards the third finger. 



74. 31. opponent diyiti II (Figs. 77 and 78 0). 



Duges, sous-carpo-nietacarpien de 1'index, n. 90. 



This muscle represents the muscle of like name in man. It arises 

 from the palmar process of the o$ captiato-lamatui* bv a narrow 

 tendon and passes into a broad, flat muscle, which is inserted into 

 the under surface and outer border of the metacarpal of the second 

 finger throughout its length. It has, undoubtedly, the same action 

 as the corresponding muscle in man. 



(4) Muscles of the third finger. 



75. 31. flexor digit i III loiir/m #. sublimis (Fig. 77/3). 



The smaller portion of this muscle arises from the free border of 

 the aponeuroiis paiittari*. the chief portion, together with the flexor 

 brevis, from the palmar surface of the os capitato-Jtamatum. The 

 two portions pass into one long tendon, which is inserted into the 

 last phalanx.

Duges. tendmi-phalangiens du inedius, n. 104. 105. 



These two muscles arise in part from the free border of the apo~ 

 neurosi* pafataris, in part from the volar surface of the os capilato- 

 Tiamatum, and pass backwards on either side 'of the muscle last 

 described, to be inserted into the basal phalanx. Dug-es regards 

 these as analogies of the tutu. I "rubricate*.
