Aponeurosis
The galea aponeurotica is the connective tissue sheath that runs between the frontalis muscle in the forehead and the occipitalis muscle at the back of the head. It forms a continuous layer of tissue over the skull, providing attachment points for these muscles and allowing them to work together in various facial expressions.
The antagonist muscle to the frontalis is the occipitalis. The frontalis muscle raises the eyebrows and wrinkles the forehead, while the occipitalis muscle pulls the scalp backwards.

The position of the frontalis is over the frontal bone or the forehead. This muscle works with the occipitalis which is over the occipital bone in the back of the head. It's action is to elevate the eyebrows.
The thick and flat sheet of tendon deep to the scalp is known as the galea aponeurotica. It is a tough layer of connective tissue that connects the frontalis muscle at the forehead to the occipitalis muscle at the back of the head. This structure plays a crucial role in the movement of the scalp and also serves as an attachment point for various muscles.
The muscles covering the scalp are commonly known as the epicranial muscles. These muscles include the occipitalis, frontalis, and the temporoparietal muscles. All of the epicranial muscles help in the moving of the eyebrow. However, the occipital part of the epicranial muscles draw the scalp in a backwards motion and the frontalis helps to raise the eyebrow.

This is called an aponeurosis. These are layers of flat broad tendons. They are found in the abdominal region and the palm of the hand and the plantar surface of the foot. One runs from the frontalis muscle to the occipitalis on the top of the head.
the function of the frontalis muscle is to raise the eyebrows.
Dendroctonus frontalis was created in 1868.
Ecsenius frontalis was created in 1836.
