. Annals of the South African Museum = Annale van die Suid-Afrikaanse Museum. Natural history. Text-fig. 5.—True lateral view of the pelvis and hind limb in the stand- ing position. Brachy- pareia rogersi. X TV (8953.). Text-pig. 6.—True anterior view of the right half of the pelvis and limb—with the limb in the forward position at the commencement of the stride. Br achy par eia rogersi. X ^. (8953.) articulated the left tarsal element to the right foot, and vice versa. In Boonstra's description of this bone this error can be corrected by substituting pre- for postaxial and proximal for distal, and vice versa. Proximally the postaxial two-thirds of the surface is formed by a well-defined, elliptical, articulatory surface. With this the fibula articulated. Preaxially the articulation for the tibia lies more dorsal and is not very well defined. The dorsal opening of the nutritive foramen lies near the dorsal edge, as in the Russian forms. We still hold the view that this proximal tarsal element is composite and composed chiefly of the fibulare and intermedium.
