dorsal interosseous: flex the metacarpophalangeal joint, extend the proximal and distal interphalangeal joints of digits 2-4, abduct digits 2-4 (abduction of digits in the hand is defined as movement away from the midline of the 3rd digit) Innervation by ulnar nerve, deep branch palmar interosseous: flexes the metacarpophalangeal, extends proximal and distal interphalangeal joints and adducts digits 1, 2, 4, & 5 (adduction of the digits of the hand is in reference to the midline of the 3rd digit) Innervation by ulnar nerve, deep branch lumbricals: flex the metacarpophalangeal joints, extend the proximal and distal interphalangeal joints of digits 2-5 Innervation by median nerve (radial 2) via palmar digital nerves & ulnar nerve (ulnar 2) via deep branch
