The dorsal vertebra which I suppose the anterior one of those received, 
is characterized by the lack of the median portion of the neural spine, and 
the extension outwards of the median lateral processes described above. 
The diapophyses are much longer, and the zygapophyses more extended 
transversely. The centrum is constricted at the middle, and especially just 
behind the convex articular extremity, whose circumference forms a prom- 
inent rim. The edges of the lip are flared outwards, forming a deep basin, 
much wider than deep. The fossz described in other vertebre are present 
in this one, but differs in proportions, owing to the greater size and expanse 
of the superior parts of the neuralarch. The fossa posterior to the base of 
the diapophysis is nearly plane, while that at the anterior base is deeply 
excavated, is narrower, and extends so far along the inferior side of the pro- 
cess as to give it a semi-circular section near the middle. Distally the di- 
apophysis has a trialate section, owing to its three longitudinal ridges, and 
the articular extremity is large and antero-posterior in direction. The pro- 
cess differs from that of the vertebra next described, in the possession of 
a facet near the middle of its anterior inferior bounding ridge, which is 
probably costal, as in the vertebra of Crocodilia. The lateral foramen of 
the centrum is subround. The general surface is smooth.

A dorsal vertebra from a more posterior position, is characterized by its 
undivivided transverse neural spine. The entire neural arch is of enor- 
mous elevation, but as the zygapophyses are above its middle, the neural 
spine is not as long relatively as in various other genera or as in the
