. Elementary text-book of zoology. 398 CHORD ATA. Fig. 289.—Dorsal View of Left Man us of Rabbit. (Ad nat.) (Slightly magnified). or metacromion. The anterior or coracoid border of the scapula is continuous with a coracoid process projecting inwards. It represents a vestigial portion of the precoracoid bone. The humerus has a large head and two prominent tuberosities. Distally it moves in the trochlea or articular sur- face of the fore-arm, above which is a small supratrochlear foramen. The radius and ulna are distinct but closely united to allow of no pronation. The fore- limb is permanently supinated. The ulna is produced back beyond the radius to form the olecranon process. The carpal bones are nine., closely bound to- gether by ligament. The proximal carpals consist of scaphoid, lunare and cuneiform, and a small sesamoid {pisiform), together with a small cent rale. The distal carpals are the trapezium, trapezoid, magnum and unciform. There are five meta- carpals, each bearing a digit. The first digit has two phalanges and the others three. The pelvic girdle has large ilia which run backwards to the acetabulum. The pubes are united ventrally to the ischia, thus enclosing on each side a large obturator foramen. The symphysis is pubic Cuneiform, Ulna. Metacarpals. Trapezoid. Trapezium. Scaphoid. Lunare.
