The second vertebra is much the same as the first, but anteriorly the basal por- tion of its neural arch bears a prezyg- apophysis which has a medial face artic- ulating with a posterolateral face of the postzygapophysis of the first vertebra. The neural arches and spines of the second through the fourth vertebrae are similar in shape and articular relation- ships to those of the first vertebra. The fifth (third) and successive vertebrae gradualK diminish the broad dorsal bor- der of the arches until by the eighth (sixth) vertebra these arches taper to their respective spines. The spines remain un- fused until the 39th (30th) vertebra is reached. The spine of this vertebra in- serts between the last two pterygio- phores of the dorsal fin of D. taenia, but in D. maderensis it inserts between the.
