(c) Posterior. coracoid is small and only slightly greater than the coracoid. The glenoid is fairly deep, the scapular part is very long, the coracoidal short, the former being much longer than the latter ; the scapular part is directed downwards, backwards, and outwards ; the coracoidal upwards, backwards, and outwards. The cleithrum is a straight, rod-like bone partially fused to the antero-external border of the scapula. Owing to the fusion it is difficult to determine its dorsal extension. Humerus (fig. 19).—The humerus is large, long, and massive, with the proximal end moderately, and the distal greatly, expanded ; the ends stand at 80° to each other; the delto-pectoral crest is of.
