Long dorsal neck muscle that passes below the pleural apodeme (apophysis) and has its posterior attachment slightly ventroanterior to TH1 (Gorko et al., 2024).

Based on length, position and proximity of anterior end to muscle 20 (OH muscles), TH1 and TH2 probably correspond to muscle 23 in Miller (1950) - FBrf0186027.
