The ansa cervicalis innervates most of the infrahyoid muscles, including the sternothyroid, sternohyoid, and the superior belly of the omohyoid muscle. The thyrohyoid muscle is innervated by fibers from the hypoglossal nerve (specifically, C1 fibers that hitchhike on the hypoglossal nerve), and the anterior belly of the digastric muscle is innervated by the mylohyoid nerve, a branch of the mandibular nerve (CN V3).
