8^ Orang^Outang five Homo Sylveflm : Qr^ 



Tho' the Auricula, or Outward Ear of this Ammal was as large, if not 

 larger than that of a Man., yet I could not obferve any Mufcle., which 

 ferv'd for it's Motion. I could not examine the Mufcles of the Tym^a- 

 mmt and Stapes, by reafon the Bones were kept entire for a Sceleton. 



The Sternohyoideiis- , Coracohyoidem , Mylohyordem and Gemohjioideus, 

 did not differ from thofe in Me« 5 which Drelinconrt has alfo obferved 

 of the former in the Female Ape. The Stylohyoideus did not arife from 

 the Styljform Procefs 5 that Frocefs being wanting in this Animal., or at 

 leaft: did not appear, by reafon it was young ^ this Mufcle therefore 

 feem'd to arife from the Os Fetrofum. 



The Gemoglojp0, by reafon of the length of the Lomr Javo, was lon- 

 ger than that in iVL;?. The Ceratoglojfp^is SLnd Styloglojfus differed not 5 

 except that the latter arifes from the Os Petrofum, like the Stylohyoideus. 

 The other Mufcles appear'd in this Animal belonging to it's Tongue. The 

 Sternothyroidet^., Hyotkyroiderfs, Cricothyroideus, Cricoaryt^noideus , Pojii' 

 cuf and Lateralis •■, the Thyroaryt£noideuf, znd. Aryt£noideus varied not from 

 thofe. in Men. The Mufcles of the Fauces alfo, differ'd not from thofe 

 in Man., (viz.) The Stylopbaryng£m ., ?terygopbaryng£US ., Oefophag£Uf 

 and VaginaUs Gida. The following Mufcles of the Gargareon were ex- 

 actly lika the Humane, (viz.) the Sphenojlaphylimfs and Pterygojiaphy- 

 linm. 



Now all the Mufcles of the Lower Jaiv may be feen without incommo- 

 ding any hereafter mentioned. ThzTemporalk (Fig. 3. i.) and Majf/e- 

 ter (Fig. 5. 6.) feem'd fomewhat larger than the Humane, and as they 

 are commonly in Brutes, by reafon theirlowcrjavp-hones are larger than 

 thofe o? Men ; yet thefe Mufcles were notfo ftrong, as thofe of Monkeys., 

 as the Parijians reprefent them. The Superior Salival DuB paft over the 

 Maffder, and entred the Mufculm Buccinator of the Py^mie, as in Man. 

 The Digaihicifs arofe not from the Mammiform Procefs, as in Men ; but 

 fprana; from the Occipital-bone j it's progrefs in this Animal agreed exact- 

 ly with that in a Humane 'Stody. Drelincourt defcribes it in Apes thus, 

 Tendinem habet intermedium poUice longum, C^ gracilem, enafcitur, autem 

 nan ab Apophyfe Styloide, fed ab ojfe Bajilari. 



The Mufcles of the Thorax which appear on the fore-part come next. 

 The Intercofiales externi znd interni, (Fig. 4. 52.) Triangularis, Scalenus 

 Primus, Seeund//s a.nd Tertius -^ Subclavius ( Fig. 3. 34. ) Serratus minor 

 anticiis, (Fig. 3. 35 •) Serratm major anticiis, (Fig. 3. 37.) All thefe were 

 like the Hnmatte. The Parijians tell us, That the Great Serratus did in 

 in their Monkeys arife from the fourth, fifth, and fixth Vertebra of the 

 'Neck.-', but it was not fointhe Pygmie: The like is taken notice of by 

 Drelincourt in Apes.> The Diaphragm a was hrg^r in this Animal, than in 



Many
