The musculature of the Onychophoran P. dominicae, its ultrastructure and details of innervation are described. Significant differences were noted between its gross anatomy and that reported in previous accounts, notably in the presence of inner circular body wall muscle and a prominent, functionally significant, levator of the leg. The former is important in regard to the evolutionary position of the Onychophora while the latter helps to elucidate the control of walking in a lobopodial leg, and therefore the evolution of arthropod locomotion, which was the focus of the study.
