M. 8509. Distal ends of tlireo Ininieri of similar form to C. 8G55. 
H. 8430. Distal oiuls of two right humeri. 
C. 8652. Distal end of right humerus of a similar form, l)ut considerably larger size, the width of 
its distal articular surface heiug 4*7 cm. against 3'8 cm. in C. 8G;'35. 
M. 8862. Distal ])art of right humerus. In this specimen there is a su])ratrochlear perforation. 
Tlu^ dimensions (in centimetres) are: — Width of shaft 3; width of distal end G; width 
of distal articulation 4’, 5. Presented Inj the E<j)j'i>tian Government, l'JU4. 
C. 8124. Left radius. This hone is comparatively long and slender, hut it widens out considerably 
towards the distal end. The anterior face of the shaft is convex, the posterior (idnar) 
surface flattened. The proximal articular surface consists of a hu'ger outer portion, 
deeply grooved towards its inner side for the intertrochlear ridge of the humerus, and 
a smaller inner portion only very slightly concave from before backwards and looking 
upwards and inwards : this, with the large inner portion of the sigmoid surface of the 
ulna, articulates with the inner portion of the distal articulation of the humerus. About 
the middle of the posterior face there is a ])romineut facet for articulation with the 
ulna, but in addition to this the whole posterior surface seems to have been ridged 
and roughened, showing that the union between the two bones was a very close 
one. The distal articulation is unknown. The dimensions (in centimetres) of this 
specimen are : — 
"Width of j)roxinial articular surface 4-7 
„ uiiddle of shaft 2-4 
„ distal end 5-3 
Length (without distal epiphysis) 31‘4 
M. 9124. Incomjdete left radius similar to last. 
M. 8863. Upper portion of a left ulna. The olecranon process is large and rises high above the 
articulation, but ]3rojects veiy little backwards. The inner boialer of its upper end is 
produced upwards into a flange which forms the inner side of a large groove (? for a 
tendon). The sigmoid notch is shallow and except towards the upper end the surface 
for the humerus is on the inner side only. There is a small distal surface for the outer 
side of the humeral articulation, and immediately beneath it is the projecting facet 
by which the bone interlocks with the upper end of the radius, which must also have 
been closely united with the rugose anterior face of the shaft. This becomes considerably 
nari'owed towards its middle and is strongly compressed from before backwards, though 
less so than iii JJij)lopiis ; towards the distal end the radial surface forms a sort of shelf 
on the inner side of the shaft and is bordered externally by a strong ridge. The 
distal extremity of the bone is unknown. The dimensions (in centimetres) of this 
specimen are : —
