The small exogenous process standing out from the sides of the centrum is a dismemberment of the parapojDhysis; in the first caudal vertebra it is given off' from the base of the parapophysis, increases in length in the second caudal, rises upon the side of the centrum in the third, and becomes distinct from the parapophysis in the fourth : it diminishes and disajjpears in the ninth and tenth caudal verteljric. In Polijptems and ]\Iura3- noids a transverse process coexists, from the same cause, with the parapophysis.
