Dimensions of the CAUDAL VERTEBRZ in the Bactrian Camel. 
Rostro-caudal Dimensions (Length) of the 
Vertebre of the Tail, in the Mesial Plane. 
Sterno-dorsal Dimensions (Height) of the Vertebrze of the Tail, 
in the Mesial Plane. 
I. 
Distance in the mesial plane from 
the rostral margin of the sternal 
surface of the vertebrz of the tail, 
To thecaudal margin of the same 
surface. 
IV. 
Distance in the mesial plane from 
the rostral margin of the sternal 
surface of the vertebrz of the tail, 
To the opposite dorsal margin, 
Being at the articulation of each 
vertebra with that preceding. 
VIII. 
Distance in the mesial plane from 
the summit of the spinous pro- 
cess of each vertebra of the tail, 
To the nearest point on the ster- 
nal surface of the vertebra.
