The new generic and specific terms Ogmodirus martini are proposed for the 

 new animal. 



The limbs are short and heavy, with the ends of the propodials not modified 

 for the reception of the mesopodial elements. The anterior and posterior pro- 

 podials both exhibit traces of the peculiar vascular canals and cavities so 

 often described for the plesiosaurs. In the opinion of the junior author this 

 condition is a persistence of an embryonic condition confined to the plesiosaurs 

 and indicating a distinct evolution in that group. The developing long bones 

 of all vertebrates show precisely the same condition as is exhibited by the 

 adult propodials. The fact that they seem to be more exaggerated in some 

 embryonic plesiosaurian propodials would go to show that the character has 

 been deeply impressed on the organization of some of the group. Other mem- 

 bers of the Plesiosauria show this character very little, or not at all. Until 

 the plesiosaurs are better known, no definite solution of the problem can be 

 attained; but it is suggested that the more generalized and plastic forms of 

 the group will be found to exhibit this character, while the development of 

 this character has been obliterated in other forms.
