This study was performed on the tendons and muscles of two Anatolian bobcats (Lynx lynx). The research materials were donated by Republic of Turkey Ministry of the Forestry and Water Affairs Sivas Branch Manager. To achieve this objective, dissection and radiography were applied to two dead specimens. Digit I is radiographically rudimentary in the forepaw. The muscles and tendons of the forepaw in the bobcat are located in the cranial and caudal aspect of the antebrachium, the central manus and hypothenar region. The extensor muscles are situated on the cranial aspect of the antebrachium, while the flexor muscles are located on the caudal aspect of the antebrachium. The m. extensor carpi radialis in the extensor group has long and short portions; the m. extensor digitorum lateralis et communis give rise to tendons associated with fingers; the fascia covering the muscles emerges on the lateral and medial border of the m. extensor digitorum lateralis. The m. flexor digitorum superficialis et profundus lie on the caudal aspect of the antebrachium; the superficial digital flexor tendons give rise to the origin of the bellies of the m. flexor digitorum brevis; the m. flexor digitorum profundus form a stout tendon from which the mm. lumbricales originate on the palmar aspect of carpal joints; the tendon of the muscle perforates the tendon of the m. flexor digitorum superficialis. The mm. flexores digitorum profundi breves in the central manus group consist of the lateral and medial portions and insert on the palmar aspect of each proximal phalanx associated with the fingers. Other muscles in the group, adductores digitorum, end to those in the fingers.

Material za raziskavo je darovalo Ministrstvo za gozdarstvo in vode TurAije. Na dveh kadavrih je bila izvedena radiografija in sekcija. Radiografija je pokazala, da je prvi prst sprednje Aiape rudimentaren. MiAiice in kite sprednje Aiape se pri risu nahajajo v kranialnem in kavdalnem podroAju podlahti, centralnega dela dlani in na podroAju miAiic, ki premikajo 5. prst. MiAiice iztegovalke se nahajajo na sprednjem delu podlahti, medtem ko so miAiice upogibalke nameAiAene na kavdalnem podroAju podlahti. Ena izmed miAiic iztegovalk m. extensor carpi radialis ima dolge in kratke odseke; iz miAiice m. extensor digitorum lateralis et communis izhajajo kite za prste; fascija, ki pokriva miAiice pa se zaAne na lateralnem in medialnem podroAju miAiice m. extensor digitorum lateralis . MiAiica m. flexor digitorum superficialis et profundus leA¾i na kavdalnem podroAju podlahti; iz povrAiinskih tetiv digitalnega fleksorja pa izhaja trebuh miAiice m. flexor digitorum brevis ; m. flexor digitorum profundus tvori moAno tetivo, iz katere mm. lumbricales izvirajo na palmarnem podroAju karpalnih sklepov. Tetiva miAiice perforira tetivo miAiice m. flexor digitorum superficialis . MiAiice mm. flexores digitorum profundi v osrednji skupini miAiic podroAja dlani so sestavljene iz lateralnih in medialnih delov in se nahajajo na palmarnem podroAju vsake proksimalne prstnice in so povezane s prsti. Druge miAiice v skupini mm. adductores digitorum , se konAajo na koncih istih prstov. KljuAne besede: ris ( Lynx lynx ); sprednja Aiapa; miAiice; kite; anatomija
