    This document summarizes four muscles of the caudal hip and pelvic limb in horses: the internal obturator, gemelli, quadratus femoris, and external obturator. It provides the origin, insertion, action, and innervation for each muscle. The internal obturator and gemelli muscles originate on the pelvis and insert on the femoral trochanteric fossa, acting to laterally rotate the hip. The quadratus femoris originates on the ischium and inserts on the intertrochanteric crest, acting to extend the hip and laterally rotate it. The external obturator originates on the pelvis and inserts on the trochanteric fossa,
