other mammals. Thirty-five specimens of the hedgehog were dissected and 
some interesting variations in the cutaneous musculature were found. The 
author concludes that the facial musculature in particular represents a mixture 
of primitive conditions, resembling those found in Echidna, and those existing 
in much higher forms. The large orbicularis muscle is restricted to the hedgehog, 
but seems to have developed from the musculus humero-dorsalis, which has a 
very wide distribution among mammals. All the facial and cervical musculature 
is supplied from the nervus facialis, and all the trunk musculature, except the 
musculus dorso-cuticularis, from the anterior thoracic nerve.
