To the four extcraal Mufcles of the Auricb, dcfcribed 
hy Caffkrins^ he adds a new one of his own difcovery^ 
and names it, Mufculns AuricnU A^iterior. It fprings from 
the Inverting Membrane of the Temporal Mufcle, above 
that part of the Zygoma^ which proceeds from the 0/ tefn- 
porls ; Thence running ftreight down, it fplits into two 
parts, one being inferted into the fore part of the fuperior 
Cavity of the Concha*^ the other a littk higher into the 
lore part of the Cavity of the Scapha. 
:c iHe fays the pofterior Mufclcs of the AnricHU vary 2ts 
to thof number in different fub)eas ^ there being fooie- 
times four, and fometimes but two of them j yet for the 
nioft part there are three in each Auricle. 
Befides thefe, he defcribes two Internal Nlufcles belong- 
ing to this partf which he fays none has hitherto taken 
notice of ; One he calls Mufculns Tragi, the other Mufcu^ 
/us anti-iragius, aaording to their fituation ^ but in Bodies 
lean and emaciated they are not to be feen, as he owns 
himfeif; 
He has difcovered a new Ligament, which faftens the 
Auricle to the Frocejfu^ Zygomaticusoi the Temple Bone. 
' Upon fining the Meat tff audit or it^s with Wax, he ob- 
ferves that in the beginning it alcends a little, then about 
its middle ic^s crooked downwards 5 again it runs upwards 
and then downwards to the Membrana Tympanic by which 
it is obliquely (hut. 
He defc ibes the Jncifuraj or Slits in the cartihginoos 
part of this paflage, more accarately than MonC Duvermy 
has done. 
When the Membrana Adipofa comes ta the beginning of
