The Iguanodon in the sands of the chalk. 



anterior part of the condyles is very narrow, as if for the passage of 

 a very strong tendon. The original was, thirty three inches long ; 

 a, is the trochanter major — h, the trochanter minor. 



Fig. 3. 



The pointed figures represent the claw-bone of the Maidstone 

 Iguanodon, which is here exhibited laterally and anteriorly ; it is the 

 smaller of the two specimens. You will perceive how much it dif- 

 fers from the unguical bone represented in Geol. S. E. of England. 

 This one is more like the nail-bone of the foot of a tortoise. If the 

 Maidstone animal were furnished with such bones to all its claws, itmay 

 belong to a different species to that of Tilgate For- 

 est : or the Iguanodon may have had flat claw-bones 

 to the hind feet, and curved ones to the fore feet.
