of Como, Italy (| nat. size ; original in the Munich Museum). 



(See coloured reproduction in frame on wall.) 



In Wall- case 10 are exhibited numerous more or less com- 

 plete skeletons of species of the genera Cryptoclidus, Murceno- 

 saurus, and Peloneustes from the Oxford Clay of Peterborough 

 (Leeds Collection). In some cases the bones are so little 

 crushed that it has been possible to mount them in their natural Glass-case 

 position. One nearly complete skeleton of a young Plesiosaur 

 (probably Cryptoclidus) from the same locality has been mounted 

 and placed in a separate case in the centre of gallery.
