Pelvic girdle The proportions of the pelvic girdle as a whole are shown on numerousspecimens, among them SAM-9938, 9945, K4597f and K4609a. The ilium is wellseen in dorsal view on K4609a. No specimen permits a lateral view of theacetabular region, but the general shape of the ischium and pubis area is shownin K4609a and 9945 (Fig. 5C). The ilium is elongate and there is an iliac symphysisproximally on the midline. The iliac shaft on most specimens extends far forward,nearly or actually touching the transverse processes of the third vertebra (SAM-9965) but in others terminates near the end of the sacrum (SAM-K4596c). Theiliac shaft is robust but only a small iliac crest is present. The dorsal protuberanceis well developed but low and rounded, not protruding far from the shaft. Theischium is usually obscured by the urostyle, but in SAM-K4609a it is wellossified and robust (Fig. 5C). The pubis is well ossified as shown in SAM-9945, 66 ANNALS OF THE SOUTH AFRICAN MUSEUM.
