Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Journal of Anatomy and Physiology, Normal and Pathological, Human and Comparative, 1905, Vol. 39
The constant and uniform structural character of this varia tion in all of the observed instances would alone suggest that it represents a myological type, abnormal as an element of the primate pectoral group, but forming a normal constituent of the pectoralis complex in certain of the specialised types assumed in other mammalian orders.
In the case of certain of the other variants here considered no such homologous muscles are found among the lower mammalian orders.
