Abstract

The muscle iliacus minor normally occurs in the Semnopithecus entellus. It takes origin from the anterior margin of the ilium between the two heads of the rectus femoris and is inserted into the lesser trochanter. The medial limb of the iliofemoral ligament is absent in this animal. This adduces additional evidence for the view that the muscle iliacus minor and the medial limb of the iliofemoral ligament are homologous structures.
