EAST AFRICAN CHALICOTHERES 229 In comparison with the Paris cast it appears in proximal view to be more drawn out in an oblique direction from radiodorsal to ulnovolar. The proximal surface is completely occupied by the articulating surface for the radius, more definitely rhomboidal than in A. pcntelicum, but as in that species convex in the dorsovolar direction and to a lesser degree also in the transverse direction. The radial surface bears as in A. pcntelicum a proximal facet for the scaphoid, flat and triangular, and. Fig. 23. Cu
