In Fig. 274 a short isth-mus extends from the upper end of the elongated pelvisand separates it from what may be regarded either as arudimentary second pelvis or a major calyx with secondarycalyces. In Fig. 275 the separation of the upper calyx isseen more distinctly and is apparently a distinct pelvisdivided into three secondary major calyces with their minor.
