The pelvis is perfectly preserved. The ischium is hut little over half 

 as long as the ilium measuring from the middle of the acetahulum. The 

 ilium is a triradiate bone, the superior or sacral plate rather shorter and 

 wider than that forming the "crest," which is subsimilar to the peduncu- 

 lar portion. The crest expands very slightly distally forwards and down- 

 wards. The isehio-pubic suture is a long one, and the obturator foramen 

 a long oval ; the inferior pelvic elements do not form a transverse, but 

 meet at an open angle.

Femur. The head projects inwards on a well-marked neck. The 

 great trochanter is strongly recurved and presents an anterior tuberosity 

 as well. It rises to an incurved apex much elevated above the head. 

 The prominence of the front of the femur is continued into the front of 

 the trochanter. The outer margin of the shaft is thin, and at a point 

 two-fifths the length from the proximal end is produced into a low thin 

 trochanter, which is curved forwards and thickened on the margin. The 

 trochlea is well elevated, the inner margin a little the most so, and is 

 narrow. It is continuous with the surface of the inner condyle, which is 

 the shorter and more vertical ; the external is longer and divergent ; its 

 terminal face is marked by two fossae, one in front of the other just out- 

 side the distal end of the ridge bordering the trochlea. Little trochanter 

 moderate.

The tibia has a broad prominent crest, which is remarkable in being 

 deeply fissured longitudinally at its superior portion. The tendinous 

 notch separates the outer portion of the crest from the spreading margin 

 of the outer cotyloid face. The crest disappears at the proximal third, 

 and the shaft becomes flattened in front and on the inner side. The dis-
