 surface.) Length of rotular siirface (in centre), 5-5 in. Breadth of rotular surface 

 (in centre), 5'6 in. Circumference at commencement of fractured portion 13 in. above 

 inferior articular svirface, 22- in. 



Figs. 2 and 2 a. — Elephas Namadicus. Lower end of right tibia, 

 with articular siirface ; from the Nerbudda. — B.M. 



Greatest transverse diameter of inferior extremity, 7-4 in. Greatest antero- 

 posterior diameter of ditto, 6-1 in. Projection downwards of the internal mal- 

 leolus, 1-4 in. Circumference at broken end 9 in. above inferior surface, 12-6 in. 



Figs. 3 and 3 a. — Elephas Namadicus. Upper end of right radius ; 

 from the Nerbudda.— B.M. 



Greatest transverse diameter, 6-2 in. Greatest antero-posterior diameter, 3-^in. 



Figs. 4, 4 a, and 4 h. — Elephas Namadicus. Dorsal vertebra ; from 

 the Nerbudda.— B.M. 



Height of body, anteriorly, 5-8 in. Breadth of body, anteriorly, 5& in. Length 

 of body, inferiorly, 2-4 in. Spinal canal, height, anteriorly, 2- in. Spinal canal, 

 breadth, anteriorly, 3- in. Between extreme points of transverse processes, 12-8 in. 

 Anterior costal surface, height, 2-6 in. Anterior costal surface, breadth, 1-8 in. 



Fig. 5. — Elephas Namadicus. Left femur in three fragments. This 

 figure is copied from an illustration of Mr. J. Prinsep's description of 

 a fossil found by Dr. Spilsbury in the Nerbudda Valley, near Nar- 

 sinhpoor (Jom-n. As. Soc, Aug. 1834, vol. iii. p. 396, Plate XXIV. 

 fig. 3). The dimensions of the femur, while it remained whole and at- 

 tached to the rocky matrix, were as follows: — 



Greatest length, 63- in. Circumference of the head, 27' in. ; diameter of ditto, 

 8-75 in. Breadth from tip of great trochanter to inner edge of head, 18- in. Cir- 

 cumference of shaft at centre, 19- in. Breadth of condyles, 1 1- in. 



j'ig. 6. — Elephas Nam,adicus. Fragments of right femur. The epi- 

 physis of the head is lost, but its place is shown by a dotted hne. This 

 fio-ure is copied from the same source as the last. ( Journ. As. Soc, vol. iii. 

 plate XXIV. figs. 9 and 10. Fig. 6 a. is lower end of the left femur 

 represented in fig. 5, and not of that in fig. 6, as might be inferred from 

 dotted line in Plate. 



Fig. 7. — Elephas Namadicus. Humerus; copied from the illustra- 

 tion of a paper by Dr. Spilsbury in Journ. As. Soc, June 1837, vol. 

 vi. p. 487, Plate XXX. fig. 1. 



Fig. 8. — Elephas Namadicus. Bones of pelvis with acetabulum, copied 

 from same source as fig. 7. (Plate XXX. figs. 5 and 6.) 



Fig. 9. — Elephas Namadicus. Lower jaw, with molar incomplete at 

 left side. This specimen is also copied from an illustration of Mr. J. 

 Prinsep's description of a fossil found by Dr. Spilsbury in the Nerbudda 

 Valley (Journ. As. Soc, Nov. 1833, vol. ii. p. 583, Plate XX. fig. 1). 

 The jaw is inverted in the drawing. 



Length of tooth, 11-5 in. Breadth, 3-5 in. Length of grinding surface, 8-5 in. 

 Girth of jaw-bone, 24- in. Probable length from chin to condyle, 26- in. 



A description of the locality where the Nerbudda fossils were found, with sec- 

 tional drawings, will be foimd in the paper above referred to. 



Fio-s. 10 and 10 a. — Elephas insignis. Fragment of molar showing 

 four plates. The specimen is remarkable as coming from the Valley 

 of the Nerbudda.— B.M. 



Length of molar, 47 in. Greatest breadth, 3-1 in. Height of fragment, 6- in.
