 Foxii. Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc. vol. xxx. pp. 18-23, pi. iii. 



Further details are given respecting the structure of the skull and of 

 the vertebral column. The palatals and pterygoids are described. 

 The sacrum is contrasted with that of Iguanodon Mantelli. The writer 

 maintains the generic distinctness of Hypsilo^hodon. L. C. M. 



Note on an Astragalus oi Iguanodon Mantelli. Quart. Journ. 



Geol. Soc. vol. xxx. pp. 24-26, figs. 1-4. 

 In all recent and fossil reptiles, except Dinosauria, which have a 

 foot capable of flexion and extension, the hinge occurs at the junction 

 of the log with the astragalus. In birds the movable joint is beyond 

 the astragalus, but, except in some of the Batitce, the astragalus unites 

 with the tibia at an early age. In Dinosauria the joint is situate as in 

 birds, but the astragalus remains distinct throughout life. The present 

 fossil shows its persistence as a separate bone in Iguanodon, and also 

 its immobility with respect to the tibia. L. C. M.

of fore limbs in Iguanodon and Megalosaurus does not hold in 



Hylceosaurus. L. CM.

 Two new examples are described and figured, while a third is 

 noticed. The reference of similar bones to the shoulder-girdle of 

 Dinosauria is controverted. No evidence of junction with sacral 

 vertebrae has offered itself. The author thinks that the attachment of 

 the ilium to the vertebral column may have been fibrous. L. C. M.

A large part of a palmated left antler with a part of the skull 

 attached, obtained from the Forest-bed at Hasbro. The author con- 

 siders it allied to Cervus megaceros, and, on account of the great width 

 of the frontal bones, proposes to name it C. latifrons. A list of the 

 Cervidae of the Forest-bed is given. E. T. N.
