nerve (excluding the paraperoneal branch) of _Tympanuchus
pallidicinctus_, showing the distribution of the branches.

FIG. 12. _Tympanuchus pallidicinctus_ 2L. Lateral
view of the superficial muscles of the left leg. × 1. 397
FIG. 13. _Tympanuchus pallidicinctus_ 2L. Medial
view of the superficial muscles of the left leg. × 1. Articular
capsule shown by concentrically arranged dashes. 398
FIG. 14. _Tympanuchus pallidicinctus_ 2L. Lateral
view of the muscles of the left leg. The following muscles have
been removed: extensor iliotibialis lateralis, extensor
iliotibialis anticus, gastrocnemius pars externa and pars
interna, and peroneus longus. × 1. 399
FIG. 15. _Tympanuchus pallidicinctus_ 2L. Medial
view of the muscles of the left leg. The following muscles have
been removed: extensor iliotibialis lateralis, extensor
iliotibialis anticus, ambiens, flexor cruris lateralis (in part),
flexor cruris medialis (in part), gastrocnemius pars externa
and pars interna, and peroneus longus. × 1. 400
FIG. 16. _Tympanuchus pallidicinctus_ 2L. Lateral
view of the muscles of the left leg. The following muscles,
in addition to those listed for Fig. 14, have been removed:
ambiens, vastus lateralis pars lateralis, vastus medialis (except
for part of patellar tendon), extensor iliofibularis, flexor
cruris lateralis (in part), flexor perforans et perforatus
digiti II, and flexor perforans et perforatus digiti III. × 1. 401
