Please understand that some textbooks use names that are not used in your lab manual. You must identify muscles based upon the names provided in the Dissection Study Guide.
Ventral View – Pectoral Girdle
Note the Pectoralis Minor is called Pectoralis Profundus here. The Pectoralis Major is labeled Pectoralis Transversus, and the pectoantebrachialis is labeled Pectoralis Descendens.
