Myology 3.2.1 M. latissimus dorsi pars cranialis This muscle forms a broad, dorsoventrally flattened ribbonlike structure. Its origin is on the spinal processes of the thoracic vertebrae II–VI (Suzuki et al., 2014), and it inserts on the caudal margin of the proximal shaft of the humerus (Figure 1; Figure ; Table ). 3.2.2 M. latissimus dorsi pars caudalis This muscle forms a large, roughly triangular sheet and makes up the superficial muscle layer of the back musculature.
