Wikipedia
Perimysium
Perimysium is a sheath of connective tissue that groups muscle fibers into bundles (anywhere between 10 and 100 or more) or fascicles. Studies of muscle physiology suggest that the perimysium plays a role in transmitting lateral contractile movements. This hypothesis is strongly supported in one exhibition of the existence of "perimysial junctional plates" in ungulate flexor carpi radialis muscles constructed by Emilie Passerieux. The overall comprehensive organization of the perimysium collagen network, as well as its continuity and disparateness, however, have still not been observed and described thoroughly everywhere within the muscle. Found to have type I, III, VI, and XII collagen.

perimysium
Perimysium is a type of connective tissue that groups muscle fibers into bundles (also known as fascicles) within a muscle. It is a sheath surrounding these bundles, providing pathways for nerves and blood vessels. Perimysium helps to reduce friction between muscle fibers and increase the muscle's overall strength and stability.
Webster Dictionary
Perimysiumnoun
the connective tissue sheath which surrounds a muscle, and sends partitions inwards between the bundles of muscular fibers
Etymology: [NL., fr. Gr. peri` about + my^s muscle.]
