170 FAUNA ANTIQUA SIVALENSIS. 



in a manner which is remarkable for the fossil state among Sewalik 

 remains. From the clay-marl of Maginnud. Figured by Messrs. 

 Baker and Durand in Journ. As. Soc, vol. v. PL XVII. fig. 19. 



Ifo. 273. Rhinoceros ? — Upper extremity of humerus showing 



the head and upper trochanters ; the descending spine of the large 

 tuberosity broken off: of large size. 



No. 274. Rhinoceros ? — Upper extremity of hiunerus, right 



side, showing the head and both tuberosities, as also the middle apophysis 

 of the upper end. 



No. 277. Rhinoceros ? — Eight femur, articulating head with 



part of shaft attached ; leafy expansion of third trochanter broken off. 



No. 278. Rhinoceros ? — Shaft of femur, left side, articular 



epiphysis and trochanters broken oiF, base of leafy expansion remaining. 



No. 280. Rhinoceros ? — Lower end of femur, left side, showing 



the condyles and trochlear puUey with a short portion of the shaft 

 attached. 



No. 283. Rhinoceros ? — Top of ulna, left side, showing articular 



pulley and part of olecranon. 



No. 285. Rhinoceros ? — Upper half of right tibia with arti- 

 cular surface nearly entire. 



No. 287. Rhinoceros ? — Astragalus, very perfect, of right side. 



No. 288. Rhinoceros ? — Calcaneum, left side, nearly entire. 



No. 289. Rhinoceros —— 1 — Middle metacarpal of right fore leg 

 entire. 



No. 302. Rhinoceros ? — Entire humerus, left side found em- 

 bedded in argillaceous matrix, which has been partly removed, laying 

 bare the articular surfaces of both extremities together with the tuber- 

 osities, and a great part of the shaft on one side ; the lower jaw of a 

 horse, both rami, together with the lower end of the left femur of the 

 same animal united to it on the other side by matrix. The hiunerus is 

 of large size, and equal to Nos. 273, 274.

There is great obliquity in the plane of the distal end of the lower 

 articulation, the outer condyle projecting very much beyond the inner, 

 as in Baker and Durand's figure, Joui'n. As. Soc. vol. v. PI. XVII. figs. 6 

 and 7. 



A notable specimen as indicative of the manner in which the bones 

 of different animals were washed together into the mud-beds of the 

 Sewalik strata : the Maginnud bone-bed being a stratum of argillaceous 

 earth : the bones soft and white and adhering to the tongue. The mud 

 matrix penetrates into the cores of the hollow bones. 



No. 324. Rhinoceros ? — Molar of upper jaw, nearly entire, with 



part of palate attached.
