Section 92. Attached just behind the bulla above, and passing round

on either side of the throat to meet at the base of the tongue, is the

hyoid apparatus (Figure 6). The stylohyal (s.h.), epihyal (e.h.), and

ceratohyal (c.h.) form the anterior cornu of the hyoid. The body of the

hyoid (b.h.) forms a basis for the tongue. The posterior coruna (t.h.) of

the hyoid are also called the thyrohyals.
