    2. Irregular Muscular 11 ranclies. 3. S li ]) c rf i c i a I i s Vo la; arises from the Radial, at the lower margin of the Pronator Quadratus, passes superficially to the ball of the thumb, and sends a branch to the Arcus Sublimis. 4. Dorsalis Carpi arises from the Radial, at the wrist, runs across the back of the Carpus, below the Extensor Ten¬ dons, and supplies the Interosseal Spaces of the back of the hand. 5. Magna Pollicis a terminating branch of the Radial, at the head of the Metacarpal Bone of the thumb ; it divides into two branches, which run along the sides of the thumb. C. Radial is In icis arises at the same place with the last, and runs along the radial side of the fore-finger. 7. Palmar is Profunda arises near the same place, crosses the hand between the Metacarpal bones and Flexor ten¬ dons, forming the Arcus Profundus, which joins a branch of the Ulnar Artery, called the Cubitalis Manus Profunda, near the origin of the Superficial Arch. U LINAR ARTER1 is one of the forks of the Brachial, and is more in a line with it than the Radial. At its upper part it passes under the muscles arising from the Internal Condyle. At its lower part it is more superficial, and at the wrist it passes over the Annular Ligament, and forms the Arcus Sublimis, between the Flexor Tendons and Palmar Fascia. Its branches are the following : 1. Rccurreus Ulnar Is arises from the Ulnar, near the tubercle of the Radius, winds upwards over the Internal Condyle, and anastomoses with the Anastomotica. 2. I n! r r o 8 x i! a arises below the last, and divides into two
