Abstract:
:The jaw muscle (i.e., masticatory, suprahyoid, and extrinsic tongue) anatomy and mass were examined in four genera of Old World hamsters (cricetine murids), Mesocricetus, Cricetulus, Tscherskia, and Phodopus. The masseter was the largest and most complicated of the muscles examined. In the superficial layer, a few ventral fibers form a small medially turned portion with an insertion site more similar to those of sciurids than of other murids. In Mesocricetus, the superficial layer has a discrete anteroventral portion that has not been reported for other murid rodents. Examination of the fiber attachment sites indicated that the deep layer contains four parts and the medial layer contains three parts. The deep layer originates from two aponeuroses that are firmly connected to each other at their anterior ends and lie along the zygomatic arch. The aponeurosis of insertion for the deep layer is situated along the masseteric ridge and the dorsal border of the angular process, but is absent in its middle part, consistent with reports in two relatives, sigmodontine and arvicoline murids. In cricetine murids, unlike in other rodents, fibers insert on the dorsal narrow strip of the posterior mandibular aponeurosis, not on its broad medial aspect. The relative mass of some masticatory and suprahyoid muscles is related to body mass. Small species (Cricetulus and Phodopus) have relatively larger masseter and mylohyoid muscles and smaller temporalis and geniohyoid muscles than large species (Mesocricetus and Tscherskia).
