The tuber is higher in Bovini, but generally projects as far or almost as far as in the Hippotragini. In Bos gaurus it has an excavation on its antero-lateral side. Pelorovis most resembles Bovini other than B. gaurus. (Text- figs. 27, 29). 68. The lateral side of the glenoid facet on the scapula is indented in Bovini and Pelorovis, but not in Hippotragini (Text-fig. 28). 69. In Bovini there is a tendency for the teres minor cavity on the scapula not to pass so far forwards as the base of the spine ; this is less clear in Syncerus than in Bos and the single Bubalus, although it is not possible to tell Syncerus from every specimen of Bos. Pelorovis is like the Hippotragini or Syncerus (Text-figs. 27, 29).. Please note that these images are extracted fro
