C. 8060. Atlas vertebra associated witli tlie type skull. In this specimen the lateral snrlaces tor 
the axis are roughly triangular, their inner sides hounding the broad notch tor the 
odontoid being straight and nearly vertical. Condylar cups broad and deeply concave, 
extending u[) to the level ol: the neural arch and down to the ventral bar.
