The reexamination of the branchiogenic muscles of the shoulder shows also in the Lowland Tapir, that the dorsal branch of the Ramus ext. of the N. accessorius innervates the three parts of the M. trapezius (Pars clavicularis, cervicalis and thoracalis), and the ventral branch innervates the two parts of the M. sternocleidomastoideus (Pars sternomandibularis and sternomastoidea). There is no Pars cleidomastoidea in the latter muscle. As common name for all muscles innervated by the Ramus ext. of the N. accessorius, the term M. cucullaris is proposed again.
