They begin in as fully developed a condition as the lumbars, with well-marked transverse processes, etc.; but they end as no more tlian centra, from which sometimes tiny outgrowths represent in a rudimentary way the neural arches, etc. Very often the caudal vertebrae are furnished with ventral, generally V-sbaped, ap])eiid<iges, the chevron bones or intercentra.^ These are ^ Intercentra are but rarely met with anterior to the caudal series. Mr. Parsons has, however, recorded their occurrence in the lumbar vertebrae of 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 Harmer, S.
