The fifth was probably hexagonal, but a considerable portion of it appears to have been crusht down beneath the fourth. The sixth, seventh, and eighth are approximately hexagonal. The table gives the dimensions of the neurals. The anterior suprapygal is bifur- cate, having a total height of about 87 mm., and inclosing between its right and left limbs the second suprapygal. The latter has a height of 84 mm. on the midline and a breadth of 125 mm. The costals are alternately wider and narrower at their upper ends and vice versa at their lower, but the amount of the differentiation is not great. Omitting the first the dimensions are given in the table above. 17 75 79 100 9J 97 73 100 62 (•3 87 5° 78 37 72 56 106 loo 73 56 40 94 5« 61 95 40 75 43 62.
