Reptiles, Fossil. _J9'f%^ Scapula of Opliihalmosaurvs: A, from above ; B, proximal eud; C, proximal end of scapula of the type specimen.

The upper (visceral) face of the expanded portion of the scapula is flat or slightly concaA'e and is deflected sharply downwards in fi-ont, as mentioned above; the degree of deflection of this anterior border differs very considerably in different specimens, but in no case is a broad flat anterior surface formed for union with the clavicle, such as is figured by Gilmore (op. cit.) in the shoulder-girdle of JBaptanodooi; there may, however, be an extension of the rough clavicular surface, best marked on the anterior edge of the blade of the scapula, so.
