The three fossae of the scapula are the supraspinous fossa, infraspinous fossa, and subscapular fossa. The supraspinous fossa is located above the spine of the scapula and serves as the origin for the supraspinatus muscle. The infraspinous fossa is situated below the spine and provides attachment for the infraspinatus muscle. The subscapular fossa is found on the anterior surface of the scapula and serves as the origin for the subscapularis muscle.
