Lull — Restoration of Blastomeryx marshi. 161 



fore limb were approximately complete. The humerus 

 could have been.no shorter than restored, as there is bone 

 throughout ; it may have been longer, but this is extremely 

 doubtful. Of the femoral and tibial length I am not so 

 sure. Doctor Matthew's restoration of Blastomeryx 1 

 was used, but in no two limb segments was there corre- 

 spondence where the length was actually preserved. The 

 two restorations differ in many details, some of which 

 may well be due to interpretation of material. As usual 

 with these small mounts, I have restored the flesh on the 

 right side, with carefully wrought muscular interpreta- 

 tion and a minimum of conjectural surface detail. The 

 mounting of the skeleton was very largely the work of 

 Mr. Hugh Gibb.
