Pelves. The two pelves are stoutly built, the translucent area of the alae 
being small and the remainder of the bone quite opaque. The alae are of 
considerable extent, but fairly vertical ; the pectineal lines are rounded ; the 
measurements and indices are given in the table

Vertebral Column , In No* 3 the inferior part of the vertebral column, 
with the exception of the sacrum, is absent; in No* 1 it is practically complete. 
In the former specimen the centra spinous processes and left transverse pro¬ 
cesses of the fifth and sixth dorsal vertebrae, have become anchylosed together ; 
while the right transverse processes have remained distinct, that of the fifth 
vertebra being also separated from the spinous process of the same bone by 
a jagged break, which does not appear to be due to any posthumous accident. 
Professor Annandale, who has kindly examined the specimen, thinks that 
this curious condition may possibly be due to an accident during life, which 
has, to some extent, been repaired by natural processes ; but it is difficult, if 
this be the case, to account for the absence of callus.
