A middle dorsal vertebra, wanting the neural spine; from Queensland. Presented by Sir D. Cooper, Bart., 1866. 47835. An entire posterior dorsal vertebra; from Queensland. {Fig.) Figured by Owen, op. cit. 1880, pi. xxxiv. figs. 1,2. This specimen (woodcut fig. 66) closely accords in contour with No. R. 740 of V. sivalensis, but the relative shortness of the centrum and arch is still more marked ; the neural canal being, as is always the case with larger animals, relatively smaller. Presented by Dr. George Bennett. 47839. A slightly imperfect middle dorsal vertebra; from Queens- land. Same history. 47839 a. A smaller vertebra from the middle or posterior dorsal region; from Queensland. Accords very closely with V. sivalensis, No. R. 740, but is about double the size. Same history. R. 724.
