On some New Therapsid Genera. 73. posterior end of the interclavicle, forming a triangular plate which meets its neighbour in the middle line below the interclavicle, extend- ing as far back as the suture between the precoracoid and coracoid. Its anterior edge in ventral view is straight, its posterior edge slightly concave. Its length in the mid-line of the body is 37 mm. The interclavicle is a large, elongate, median plate with, probably, lat- eral wings lying on the clavicles in its anterior half.

On some New Therapsid Genera. 73. posterior end of the interclavicle, forming a triangular plate which meets its neighbour in the middle line below the interclavicle, extend- ing as far back as the suture between the precoracoid and coracoid. Its anterior edge in ventral view is straight, its posterior edge slightly concave. Its length in the mid-line of the body is 37 mm. The interclavicle is a large, elongate, median plate with, probably, lat- eral wings lying on the clavicles in its anterior half. Ventrally it has an elongate boss in the mid- line just behind the clav- icles. The length of the bone is about 90 mm. Hand.—Among the skeletal elements pre- served there is also the larger portion of a right manus with the bones in articulation with one an- other. It differs con- siderably from the manus of Aelurognathus tigri- ceps. The third and fourth digits are complete, and each definitely contains only three phalanges, so that the digital formula was in all probability 2, 3, 3, 3, 3. Of the carpus we have the radiale and two closely articulated centralia. The former has a trefoil outline seen dorsally, but is transversely elongate in palmar view ; while the centralia—closely pressed to the radiale—are much larger in palmar than in dorsal view. The inner centralia is larger than the other. There are five carpalia. Carpalia 1 and 2 articulate with the 1st centrale ; carpal 3 has its proximal border between the two centralia and touching the radiale ; carpal 4 is the largest of the series, and must have articulated with.
