    muscles in this group except the quadratus femoris, while the adductor magnus gets additional branches from the great sciatic. The supply of the pectineus has already been given. The quadratus femoris gets its entire supply from the sacral plexus. ABDUCTORS. One Special,—Tensor Vaginae Femoris. ( Gluteus Maximus. Three Accessory. \ Gluteus Medius. ( Sartorius. Nerve supply: The tensor vaginee femoris derives its sup- ply from the inferior branch of the superior gluteal, one of the important divisions of the sacral plexus. The sartorius, as before mentioned, gets filaments from the anterior crural, and the glutei from the small sciatic and the superior gluteal branch of the sacral plexus. OUTWARD ROTATORS.

Nerve supply: Branches from the sacral plexus supply all the special muscles in this group, with the exception of the obturator externus, which is supplied, as already stated, by posterior branches of the obturator. The accessory group has already been treated as to the nerve supply under their respective localities as special muscles, and a repetition is unnecessary. INWARD ROTATORS.
