PECTORAL GIRDLE AND FORELIMB Scapula (Figs 1, 3-4, lOD) Both scapulae are preserved, the left presenting the external aspect, the right the inferior-external aspect. The glenoid cavity is clearly visible on the right (Figs 1, 3) as the humerus is disarticulated from the scapula, but the humeral head lies in the glenoid on the left side (Fig. 4). Both scapulae lie approximately parallel to the vertebral column, the anterior extremity somewhat more ventral than the posterior. In the reconstruction the scapula has been reoriented parallel to the vertebral column in a position comparable to that seen in well-preserved hadrosaurs (Lull & Wright 1942). An anteroventral- posterodorsal orientation of the scapular long axis would also be quite accept-.
