39752. The left metatarsal, referred to this species by Falconer and 

 (Fig.) Cautley, by whom it is figured, op. cit. (unpublished) pi. E. 



fig. 12. The present writer (Pal. Ind. ser. 10, vol .ii. p. 135) 

 has suggested that this bone, owing to its great length in 

 comparison to the metacarpus, may not belong to this 

 species. In nearly all Ruminants (and notably in the 

 allied Giraffa and Hettadoiherium) the length of the fore 

 and hind cannon-bones is nearly the same ; but in Ran- 

 gifer the metatarsus is considerably the longer. The 

 absence of another type of bone in the Siwalik Hills which 

 could be considered as the metatarsus of Sivatherium 

 countenances Falconer's view. 



17089. The proximal two-thirds of a similar metatarsus ; from the 

 Pliocene of the Siwalik Hills. 



39753. The proximal third of a somewhat larger metatarsus. 

 (Fig.} Figured by Falconer and Cautley, op. cit. (unpublished) 



pi. E. fig. 13. 



39526. The inferior arch of the atlas vertebra. Figured by Fal- 

 (Fig.) coner and Cautley, op. cit. (unpublished) pi. B. fig. 1. 



Presented by Dr. Hugh Falconer. 



39527. The nearly complete atlas vertebra. Figured by Falconer 

 (Fig.) and Cautley, op. cit. (unpublished) pi. B. fig. 2. 



15289 a. The atlas, and centrum of the associated axis vertebra, in 

 a somewhat damaged condition. 



39624. The associated axis and the following cervical vertebrae, 

 (Fig.) Figured by Falconer and Cautley, op. cit. (unpublished) 

 pi. B. fig. 4. 



39528. The axis vertebra, nearly complete. Figured by Falconer 

 (Fig.) and Cautley, op. cit. (unpublished) pi. B. fig. 3. 



16161. The axis vertebra, wanting the greater part of the neural 

 spine, and otherwise damaged. 



15289 b. The axis vertebra of a small individual, wanting the 

 neural spine. 



15297. The sixth cervical vertebra, wanting the extremities of most 

 of the processes. This specimen has a very indistinct 

 hffimapophysial keel, and agrees very closely with the one 

 figured by the present writer in the ' Palseontologia Indica,' 

 ser. 10, vol. ii. pi. xxii.
