Shank, tarsus and foot musculature of Xenopus laevis. Right shank and tarsal musculature in dorsal (A) and ventral (B) views. Dorsal view of specimen (C) showing location of cross‐sections through the shank (D,E) and tarsus (F). Right foot musculature in dorsal (G) and ventral (H) views. Attachment sites on the right tibiofibula in dorsal (I) and ventral (J) views, and for the right tarsus in dorsal (K) and ventral (L) views.
