Book excerpt: "Variation in the Muscles and Nerves of the Leg in Two Genera of Grouse (Tympanuchus and Pedioecetes)" by E. Bruce Holmes is a study about two closely related genres of grouse. The purposes of this study were: (1) to obtain information on individual variation in the anatomy of the muscles and nerves of the leg of Tympanuchus cupido pinnatus (Greater Prairie Chicken), T. c. attwateri (Attwater's Prairie Chicken), T. pallidicinctus (Lesser Prairie Chicken), and Pedioecetes phasianellus jamesi (Sharp-tailed Grouse); (2) to determine whether or not the two species of the genus Tympanuchus differ constantly in the myology of the leg; and (3) to determine what constant differences in the myology of the leg exist between the two closely related genera Tympanuchus and Pedioecetes.

These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside Variation in the Muscles and Nerves of the Leg in Two Genera of Grouse (Tympanuchus and Pedioecetes): Look inside the book: General Description and Relations.—Posterior to proximal part of shaft of femur and deep to M. extensor iliofibularis; posterior part deep to M. flexor cruris lateralis; bounded medially by Mm. flexor ischiofemoralis (dorsally), flexor cruris medialis (posteriorly), and adductor superficialis (anteroventrally); anterior end distal to anterior end of M. flexor ischiofemoralis; two distinct heads—pars iliofemoralis and pars caudifemoralis; pars iliofemoralis dorsal to pars caudifemoralis; posteroventral corner of former overlapped by latter; pars iliofemoralis wider and much shorter than pars caudifemoralis; extreme posterior end of pars iliofemoralis fused to overlying posteroproximal aponeurosis of M. extensor iliotibialis lateralis; small part of ventral edge sometimes fused with underlying tendinous posteroproximal corner of M. flexor cruris medialis; entirely fleshy except for small triangular tendinous area along dorsal margin at point where branch of middle tibial division of sciatic nerve passes deep to muscle; pars caudifemoralis long, thin,Pg 419 narrow, and strap-shaped; overlapping posteroventral corner of ischium; posterior end of fleshy belly narrowed and forming long slender tendon passing into caudal musculature; anterior end forming short narrow tendon fused to deep surface of ventral edge of pars iliofemoralis relatively near insertion; tendon continuous to insertion; fleshy anterodorsal corner of pars caudifemoralis slightly overlapped by ventral edge of pars iliofemoralis; some form of connection usually present between anterior part of M. caudofemoralis pars caudifemoralis and dorsal end of raphe between Mm. flexor cruris lateralis and femorocruralis, most often consisting of narrow weak tendon. ...General Description and Relations.—Divided into three distinct, widely separated parts—pars externa, pars interna, and pars media; pars externa: large; on posterolateral surface of shank; narrow proximally and distally; bounded anterolaterally by M. flexor perforans et perforatus digiti II and anteromedially by medial head of M. flexor perforatus digiti III; completely separate from pars interna and media except for common tendon of insertion; pars interna: large; on anteromedial surface of shank; narrow distally; bounded anterolaterally by M. peroneus longus and posteromedially by pars media (proximally) and medial head of M. flexor perforatus digiti III; broad sheet of tough connective tissue extending between distal parts of pars externa and pars interna; covering underlying M. flexor perforatus digiti III (medial head), somewhat fused with anteroproximal edge of M. peroneus longus; pars media: small and short; on medial surface of proximal part of shank; deep to tendon of insertion of M. flexor cruris medialis; bounded anteromedially by pars interna, posterolaterally by medial head of M. flexor perforatus digiti III, and proximally by M. femorocruralis; fused to latter, and boundary between the two difficult to locate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: IT was on the morning of the 26th of May, 1848, that after a short passage of twenty-nine days from Liverpool, we came to anchor opposite the southern entrance to the River Amazon, and obtained our first view of South America. In the afternoon the pilot came on board, and the next morning we sailed with a fair wind up the river, which for fifty miles could only be distinguished from the ocean by its calmness and discoloured water, the northern shore being invisible, and the southern at a distance of ten or twelve miles. Early on the morning of the 28th we again anchored; and when the sun rose in a cloudless sky, the city of Pará, surrounded by the dense forest, and overtopped by palms and plantains, greeted our sight, appearing doubly beautiful from the presence of those luxuriant tropical productions in a state of nature, which we had so often admired in the conservatories of Kew and Chatsworth. The canoes passing with their motley crews of Negroes and Indians, the vultures soaring overhead or walking lazily about the beach, and the crowds of swallows on the churches and house-tops, all served to occupy our attention till the Custom-house officers visited us, and we were allowed to go on shore. Pará contains about 15,000 inhabitants, and does not cover a great extent of ground; yet it is the largest city on the greatest river in the world, the Amazon, and is the capital of a province equal in extent to all Western Europe. It is the residence of a President appointed by the Emperor of Brazil, and of a Bishop whose see extends two thousand miles into the interior, over a country peopled by countless tribes of unconverted Indians. The province of Pará is the most northern portion of Brazil, and though it is naturally the richest part of that vast empire, it is the least known, and at present of the least commercial importance. The appearance of the city from the river, which is the best view that can be obtained of it, is not more foreign than that of Calais or Boulogne. The houses are generally white, and several handsome churches and public buildings raise their towers and domes above them. The vigour of vegetation is everywhere apparent. The ledges and mouldings support a growth of small plants, and from the wall-tops and window-openings of the churches often spring luxuriant weeds and sometimes small trees. Above and below and behind the city, as far as the eye can reach, extends the unbroken forest; all the small islands in the river are wooded to the water's edge, and many sandbanks flooded at high-water are covered with shrubs and small trees, whose tops only now appeared above the surface. The general aspect of the trees was not different from those of Europe, except where the "feathery palm-trees" raised their graceful forms; but our imaginations were busy picturing the wonderful scenes to be beheld in their dark recesses, and we longed for the time when we should be at liberty to explore them.
