Connective tissue coverings surrounding muscles include the epimysium (surrounding the entire muscle), perimysium (surrounding bundles of muscle fibers or fascicles), and endomysium (surrounding individual muscle fibers). For nerves, the coverings are the epineurium (surrounding the entire nerve), perineurium (surrounding bundles of nerve fibers), and endoneurium (surrounding individual nerve fibers). In bones, the periosteum covers the outer surface, while the endosteum lines the inner surfaces.
