The articular area is not as expanded pos- terodorsallv and, on the ventral side, does not extend as far posteriorly. The ischium is very concave on its medial surface, the concavity deepening to a fossa at the level of the acetabulum. The bone does not in- crease in depth in the part preserved. A small spina ischiadica is present. The part of the pubis preserved is similar in struc- ture and proportions to that of Onjcteropus, differing in the possession of a sharper crest on the ventral surface and in being di- rected more ventrallv.
