The ligaments which unite these bones together are a capsularligament, two strong short lateral ligaments, some of the fibres of whichdescend and ultimately become connected with the extremities of thenavicular bone, and two short posterior ligaments (fig. 357). Its movements are those of flexion and extension. SECOND INTERPHALANGIAL ARTICULATION ORCOFFIN-JOINT The bones concerned in the construction of this joint are the os coronaeor coronet-bone, the os pedis or foot-bone, and the os naviculare or navi-cular bone. The two last-named bones are united together in such amanner as to form two concavities separated by a slight central ridge, towhich are applied the two convexities and central groove upon the lowerend of the coronet-bone. The ligaments of this joint are: 1, The capsular, common to the threebones. 2. The lateral ligaments uniting the os coronae to the foot-bone.3.
