II. MUSCLES OF THE SHOULDER

The =deltoid= is clearly divided into acromial and scapular portions.

The former arises on the acromion, the latter on the posterior border of

the scapula and the aponeurotic covering of the infraspinatus. The

scapular part of the muscle is largely inserted into the fascia covering

the triceps.

The =supraspinatus=, =infraspinatus=, and =teres minor= do not differ

materially from those of the horse.

The =subscapularis= consists of three portions with a common tendon of

insertion.

The =teres major= and =coraco-brachialis= resemble those of the horse.
