4749. The thirteeu dorsal vertebrae. 



The metapophysis, at first developed, as usual, above the diapophysis, rises upon the fore 

 part of the prozygapophysis in the eleventh vertebra : the diapophysis is very small in the 

 twelfth vertebra, and an anapophysis is developed from this vertebra : in the thirteenth dorsal 

 both the diapophysis and anapophysis increase in length. 



4750. The six lumbar vertebrae. 



The diapophysis increases in length and width, and becomes turned upwards at its 

 extremity. The metapophysis is also of considerable length, and has a pointed process 

 developed from its upper and anterior part in the third and fourth lumbars. The anapo- 

 physis becomes rudimental in the fifth, and all trace of it is lost in the sixth lumbar 

 vertebra. 



4751. The sacrum. 



It consists of two vertebrae, whose centrums have not yet coalesced, although their neurapo- 

 physes and neural spines have done so. 



4752. Fourteen caudal vertebras. 



4753. The thirteen thoracic ribs of the left side. 



They all articulate, by means of a head and tubercle, with their respective vertebrae. 



4754. The sternum. 



It consists of seven bones articulated end to end. 



4755. The right scapula. 



The spine is perforated by a fissure of an inch and a half in extent. 



4756. The left scapula. 



The coracoid element has not entirely coalesced with the rest of the bone, either in this or 

 in the preceding scapula. 



4757. The left clavicle. 4758. The right clavicle.
