Strangely enough, the right ulna was 1 cm., and the right radius cm. longer than the corresponding bones of the left arm although the humeri were the same length. Although the arteria volaris superficialis originated abnormally from the radial artery about midway between the origin of the radial and the wrist no other vascular anomalies were present in the arm. The mm. pal- mares longi and extensores carpi ulnaris were completely absent. The veins also exibited slight abnormalities in the region under discussion. The vena azygos was unusually large, having a diameter of nearly 1 cm. where it joined the aorta. The v. hemiazygos crossed the vertebral colunm at the level of the.
