NO. 2 DIMENSIONS OF FLYING ANIMALS — GREENEVVALT 



37 



Table 14. — continued 



Forbush's measurements were made of the folded wing. Here again the value 

 given in the table is the average of the two extremes. It is evident from the good 

 correlation in the charts that Ridgway and Forbush were both measuring the 

 same dimension within a very small error. 



In the table that follows, wing-length measurements from Forbush are marked 

 * ; the two from Witherby, ** ; all others are from Ridgway.
