In Figs 237 and 238, and in subsequent illustrations of hair pencils, the pencils themselves are not drawn in detail but their limits are shown by dashed lines. If limits are not shown, this indicates that the hair pencil scales had become detached before drawing. In addition, the shading at the base of the pockets indicates the extent of the main fields of hair pencil scale Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original British Museum (Natural History).
