The distal end is fused with the radius; it projects below the level of the latter, forming the styloid process of the ulna (Pro- cessus styloideus ulna'), which furnishes part of the facet for the ulnar carpal. The summit of the olecranon and the distal end imite with the shaft at three and one-half to four years. The carpus consists of six bones, four in the proximal row and two in the distal. The proximal row is oblique in conformity with the carpal articular surface of the radius. The radial and intermediate resemble in general those of the horse, but are less regular in shape, and their long axes are directed obliquely backward and medially. The radial is narrower than in the horse and curves upward behind. The intermediate is constricted in its middle, and wider behind than in front. The ulnar is large and very irregular. Its proximal surface is extensive and sinuous and articulates with both radius and ulna; it has a large oval facet behind for articula- tion with the accessory carpal. The accessory is short, thick, and rounded; it. Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been dig
