. Annals of the South African Museum = Annale van die Suid-Afrikaanse Museum. Natural history. cap. hum. rad. con. dp. cr pm. con. j&>—/ Fig. 7. Cistecephalus sp. BPI 4086. Right humerus. A. Dorsal view. C. Ventral view. B. Posterior view. The proximal part of the humerus is convex dorsally and concave ventrally. The distal half is twisted so that the plane in which the distal edge lies is at right angles to the plane in which the deltopectoral crest and posteromedial process lie. In this way, when the proximal part of the humerus is brought to lie in the horizontal plane, the articulatory surfaces for the radius and ulna on the distal edge face forward and laterally. With the distal edge in the horizontal plane, the most anterior part is formed by the broad ectepicondyle. A thin crest leads medially from the ectepicondyle to merge with the body of the humerus near the waist of the bone. Below and behind the ectepicondyle is a prominent, rounded condyle for the radius, separated from the ectepicondyle by a distinct groove. Behind this is a smaller but equally distinct condyle for the ulna; the.
