chief Mufcular Fibers are moft curioufly Indented, as in the 
Mole; efpecialy near the C<xca. Not ill refembling the

which are continu d by the length of the Gut, run others of 
the fame colour, round about it 3 one of them to every In- 
denture, which it divides into two equal parts. 
The fame Indented-Work, is feen in moft other fmaller 
Birds, as well as here, but not every where after the fame
