In the posterior wall of the aorta lies the pericardial dilator muscle. This extends from the pericardial floor down to a tendinous plate in the aortic wall just above the level where the aorta bifurcates. This plate, the aortic tendon, marks the point of attachment of various muscles and is itself connected to the ectoderm through the frontal apodeme (Fig. 12). The muscles are the anterior and posterior aortic-oesophageal muscles and the aortic endosternite muscle all running ventrally, while the aortic
