A broad, thin aponeurosis, with decussating fibres; which is attached, above, to the spine of the scapula; below, to a crest between the teres major and inira-spinatus; within, to the spinal edge of the scapula; and which, at its middle, unites with the thin aponeurosis that covers a part of the external surface of the deltoid.
