abd.pollicis brevis,oppones pollicis and flexor pollicis brevis are supply by deep branch of radial n or by median n.??some book says they are supply by median n.

  The 3 thenar muscles of the flexor surface of the thumb that you describe are supplied by the recurrent branch of the median nerve after it crosses the carpal tunnel. the sensation across some of these is superficial radial nerve and median nerve.

The Hypothenar Muscles are innervated by the Deep Branch of the Ulnar Nerve, not the Deep Branch of the Radial Nerve. (at 34:40)
