of New Zealand,' pi. Ixxxiii. figs. 1-3. In figs. 1, 2 the 

 beak is drawn from the preceding specimen. In the 

 present example there is a squamous ossification in the 

 nasal aperture which is wanting in the latter. 



Presented by Sir li. Owen, K.C.B., 187-5. 



46622. The mandible, wanting the left ramus ; from Timarii. 



Presented hy Sir E. Owen, K.O.B., 1875. 



A. 54. The imperfect cranium, with the rostral portion in frag- 

 ments, locality unknown. 



Presented hy Sir Oeorge Orey, K. C.B. 



46623, 46593. The sternum and left coracoid ; from Timaru. The 

 {Fiij.) sternum is figured by Owen in the ' Trans. Zool. Soc' vol. 



viii. pi. xiv. figs. 2-4, and also in his ' Extinct Birds of 

 New Zealand,' pi. Ixxxi. figs. 2-4, The distal extremity 

 of the right coracoid is anchylosed to the antero-cxtcrnal 

 angle. The left coracoid, which has now been attached 

 to the sternum, is figured by Owen, with an incorrect 

 restoration of the distal extremity, in the ' Trans. Zool. 

 Soc' vol. ix. pi. xxxvii. figs. 4-7, and also in his ' Extinct 

 Birds of New Zealand,' pi. liii. figs. 4-7, as the coracoid of 

 Cnemiornis. The broken surface fits exactly on to that 

 of the sternum. 



Presented hy Sir R. Oiuen, K.G.B., 1875. 



46626. The left humerus ; from Timaru. Figured by Owen in the 

 (i'7r/.) ' Trans. Zool. Soc' vol. v. pi. Ixvi. figs. 7-10, as Cnemior- 

 nis, but referred to the present species in vol. ix. p. 266. 

 The essential characters of this bone are the same as in 

 Ocydronms, but the present bone is still more aborted. 



Presented hy Sir II. Oiuen, K.C.B., 1875. 



46627. The left humerus, associated with the preceding. 



Presented hy Sir R. Oivcn, K.C.B., 1875. 



46624. The nearly entire pelvis and sacrum ; from Timaru. Fi- 

 {Fi(j.) gured by Owen in the ' Trans. Zool. Soc' vol. viii. pi. xiv. 

 fig. 1, and pi. XV., and also in the ' Extinct Birds of New 

 Zealand,' pi. Ixxxviii., and pi. Ixxxix. fig. 1. The general 

 contour is precisely the same as in Ocydromus ; this being 

 especially shown by the lozenge-shaped superior surface of 

 the postacetabular region. 



Presented hy Sir R. Owen, K.C.B., 1875.
