Quote p. 219

Das runde Schenkelband (Lig. teres s. rotundum femoris), ist ein plattrundliches , etwa einen Zoll langes Bündel, innerhalb der Gelenkhöhle gelegen, welches mit breitem Ursprunge von beiden Rändern der Incisura acetabuli und dem Lig. transversum ausgeht, im Fettpolster der Fossa acetabuli, durch eine dünne Falte mit diesem verbunden, senkrecht aufsteigt und sich verschmälert in der rauhen Grube am Kopfe des Schenkelbeins befestigt. Es besteht aus einer Fortsetzung der Synovialhaut, mit der es durch die Lücke unter dem Lig. transversum acetabuli zusammenhängt, und darin eingeschlossenen feinen Bindegewebsbündeln und Blutgefälschen, und hat mehr die Bedeutung der Synovialfortsätze, als die eines eigentlichen Bandes. Als solches könnte es übrigens zur Befestigung des Schenkelkopfes in der Pfanne kaum etwas beitragen, sondern seine Wirkung bestände höchstens darin, die mit Beugung verbundene Auswärtsdrehung zu beschränken oder, nach Henle, vermittelst seines Zusammenhangs mit der Kapsel, diese enger an den Schenkelhals heranzuziehen.

FIG. 65. Die Bänder des Beckens und des Hüftgelenks, von hinten und aufsen. 1. Lig. ilio - sacrum posticum longum, die übrigen Bänder der Kreuz – Darmbeinverbindung deckend. 2. Lig. tuberoso - sacrum. 3. Lig. spinoso - sacrum. 4. Foramen ischiadicum majus. 5. Foramen ischiadicum minus. 6. Labrum glenoideum acetabuli. 7. Lig. teres femoris, im schlaffen Zustande , durch Wegnahme der Kapsel des Hüftgelenks und Seitwärtsdrehung des Gelenkkopfs freigelegt. 8. Untere Ansatzstelle der losgetrennten hintern Kapselwand des Hüftgelenks, welche weniger tief hinabreicht als die in der vorigen Figur dargestellte vordere. 9. Membrana obturatoria.

Vertebrates

VERTEBRATES According to the molecular clock, a specific method for dating phylogenetic events, vertebrates (Vertebrata) separated from arthropods (Arthropoda) 976±97 Ma (2004HedgesSB_ShoeJL). The latter began to dominate in species diversity with the Cambrian burst of radiation, which occurred 520 Ma (2010EdgecombeGD). This ratio in the fauna of the Earth is still preserved. Approximately 525 Ma, the phylum Chordates separated from the group of bilaterally symmetrical animals (1995ChenJY_ZhouGQ). In turn, the evolution of chordate organisms led to the formation of the first vertebrates at least 500 Ma, from which the jawed mouths 450-400 Ma descended, becoming the ancestors of the placoderms or "armored" fish (Placodermi) (1979 НаумовНП _ КарташевНН ).
