(b) The cutaneous and the muscular veins, lying under the pectoralis muscle, and arising independently from the subclavian vein. They supply the skin and muscles in the region of the arm. There is a second cutaneous vein arising from the abdominal vein and extend- ing on to the skin of the abdomen. Two other small cutaneous veins are seen on the skin of the leg, and another on the skin under the mouth. (In the Frog a single musculo-cutaneous vein is seen lying under the pectoralis muscle and extends on to the skin.) (c) The abdominal vein, partly visible through the wall of the body, in the centre of the rectus-abdominis muscle. (d) The brachial vein going to the arm, near which may often be seen the white brachial nerve. Endeavour to trace the point of origin of the brachial, muscular, and cutaneous veins (or the brachial and musculo-cutaneous veins in the Frog) as shown in the figures. Mylo-hyoid
