Turtle Muscles Head and neck muscles Mylohyoid: (intermandibularis) Superficial muscle under the jaw. Latissimus coli: midventral muscle caudal to the mylohyoid; responsible for compressing the throat during swallowing. Omohyoid: lateral to the sternohyoid. Sternomastoid: deep to the latissims colli. Sternohyoid: midventral muscles that is deep to the mylohyoid. Digastric: superficial muscle lateral to the mylohyoid. Brachiohyoid: oblique muscle that is deep to the mylohyoid. Longus coli: deep lateral muscle that is best seen in a dorsal view; responsible for extending the neck the neck. Retrahens capitis collique: lateral to the longus colli; responsible for retracting the neck. Depressor mandibuli: lateral jaw muscle securing the articular and quadrate. Biventer cervical: mid-dorsal muscle that is medial to the latissimus coli. Transverse cervical: lateral to the spinal cervical and the biventer cervical. Spinal cervical: located mid-dorsally, lateral to the biventer cervical and medial to the transverse cervical. Pectoral Girdle and Forelimb muscles Latissimus dorsi Triceps brachii: cranial and lateral to the internal brachial muscle. Deltoid: 2 heads on the ventral surface near the clavicle. Pectoralis major: large superficial muscle of the ventral surface of the chest. Subscapularis: within the subscapular fossa of the scapula Biceps brachii: caudal and lateral to the subscapularis along the inferior border of the scapula. Serratus magnus: similar to the serratus ventralis in the cat; caudal and lateral to the scapula. External radius longus: lateral border of the radius Internal brachial: medial to the biceps brachii; External radius brevis: lateral to the external radius longus. External ulnar: lateral border of the ulna. Extensor digitorum: Medial dorsal side of the limb. Suprascapularis: major muscle on the dorsal aspect of the scapula. Claviculobrachialis (clavodeltoid): lies along the scapula, cranially to the suprascapularis. Palmaris: muscle along the ventral forelimb responsible for moving the digits. Pelvic and Hindlimb muscles Attrehens pelvim: superficial muscle lateral to the pubis bone. Oblique abdominis: superficial, lateral to the attrehens pelvin. Transverse abdominis: deep to the oblique abdominis. Retrahens pelvim: caudal to the attrehens pelvim. Internal iliac: deep to the attrehens pelvim; medial to the transverse abdominis. Triceps femoris adductor: deep muscle that is medial to internal iliac. Sartorius: lateral superficial thigh muscle. Semimembranosus: broad medial superficial thigh muscle; Semitendinosus: medial to the semimembranosus. Gracilis: deep to the semimembranosus. Plantaris: superficial muscle of the hindlimb on the plantar surface. Anterior Tibialis: mid-ventral superficial muscle that lies over the tibia. Gastrocnemius Rectus femoris: deep to the sartorius Extensor digitorum longus: seen on a dorsal view- medial to the anterior tibalis. Peroneus: medial to the extensor digitorum longus (dorsal view) Flexor caudae lateralis: moves the tail; mid-dorsal deep to the flexor caudae lumbalis.
