These muscles are of two kinds. The one (Muscle grand epineux du dos, of Winslow) representing fleshy bundles of different lengths, applied upon the lateral surfaces of the spinous processes, from the third dorsal vertebra to the second lumbar. The other (Muscle petit epineux du dos, Winslow) covered by the preceding. They are situate on each side of the interspinal ligament, in the form of small, short flat bundles, which pass from one spinous process to the second, third or fourth above it. These muscles aid in extending the vertebral column; and incline it a little to one side, when they act on one side only.
