The tandem type of muscle spindle is defined as one that has two or more encapsulated sensory regions spaced along the length of the intrafusal bundle, while the single spindle has only one of them. Cipollone1) was the first to find this type of spindle in frog muscle. And later, other investigators reported spindles with similar arrangements in toads and mamrnals2-5). Cooper and Daniels6) were the first to use the term 'Tandem' to describe the above-mentioned muscle spindles. Moreover, Gray7', Jahns8), Barker, Cope and Ip9) , and Barker and Cope10) described complex variants of the tandem spindle in frog and cat muscles. However, little attention has Eeen paid to searching for the tandem type of spindle, and until now no tandem type has yet been dissected in the masticatory muscles. The present report is the first to describe the whole shape of the tandem type of muscle spindle in the masseter muscle of mammals.
