Propleural elevator of the head; originates from the propleuron and has two bands- 1) the median band that originates from the propleural epicoxal sulcus, and 2) the lateral band that originates from the anterior part of the lateral propleural area; the tendon of the propleuro-postoccipital muscle extends lateral to the cervical prominence.
