* The absence of a number indicates that the bone was broken at that particular place and did not allow of 
exact measurement. My materials for the lateral digits were much more scarce than for the middle ones, as 
the former, through their slenderness, are often broken and lost. Nearly all the hones of Hyopotamus figured, 
from Puy and Hempstead, belong to the small species Hyopotamus velaunus, Aym. Such measurements as 
I could take of the lateral digits show that they have half the breadth of the middle ones. So the breadth of 
the second metacarpal from Puy is 8 millims., the depth 10 millims. ; the second metatarsal is 8| millims. 
broad, and 6 deep at the attenuated proximal end ; the fifth metacarpal is 9f millims. broad and 8 millims. 
deep at the proximal end ; the fifth metatarsal is 9| millims. broad and 9 millims. deep.
