In [[birds]], where the arm is somewhat rotated compared to other [[tetrapod]]s, it is called '''ventral epicondyle of the humerus'''. It gives attachment to the [[ulnar collateral ligament]] of the [[elbow-joint]], to the [[Pronator teres]], and to a common tendon of origin (the [[common flexor tendon]]) of some of the Flexor muscles of the [[forearm]]. The [[ulnar nerve]] runs in a groove on the back of this [[epicondyle]]. ==Additional images== <gallery> Image:HumerusFront.png|Left humerus. Anterior view.
