Other letters as in Fig. 100. (From Flower's Osteology.) shoulder girdle of the Armadillos is somewhat diverse in form in different genera; the acromion is always large, and is remark- able in Priodon for the fact that the humerus also articulates with it, its extremity being recurved, and forming a socket for this purpose. As in some other Edentates there is a second spine on the scapula behind the first. The clavicle is strong. There is some variation in the form of the manus. It is tive- fingered in Dasypus; in Tolypeutes tlie first digit has finished; on the other hand, in Priodon, the fifth has become rudimentary.
