. The anatomy of the domestic animals. Veterinary anatomy. BONES OF THE PELVIC LIMB 205 The tarsus comprises seven bones. The tibial tarsal consists of a body, neck, and head, like the bone in man. The body presents a proximal trochlea for articula- tion with the tibia and fibula. The plantar surface has three facets for articulation with the fii)ular tarsal bone. The head is directed a little inward and articulates with the central. The fibular tarsal has a long anterior process or "beak, " but the sustentaculum is short. The tuber calcis presents a sagittal groove. The central has a concave proximal surface adapted to the head of the tibial tarsal. Its distal surface articulates nth the first, second, and third tarsals. It bears two plantar tubercles. The first tarsal is flattened and irrcgularh' quadrangular; its proximal surface articulates with the central and the distal with the first metatarsal.
