The distal end of riglit metacarpal IV of (A) Eudimorphodon cromptonellus, new species, and (B) Rhamphorhynchus sp. (after Wellnfiofer, 1975a, fig. 13c) in distal (above) and medial, or ulnar, views. Not to scale. and thus a diaphyseal section appears to be missing. The other proximal wing pha- lanx overlies the humeral head and is com- plete (18 mm length) although broken at midshaft and crushed distally (Fig. 3). Other wing phalanges are identified on the basis of the dimensions of their artic- ular ends.

Other wing phalanges are identified on the basis of the dimensions of their artic- ular ends. A second wing phalanx ( mm length) lies behind the skull (Fig. 2); the breadth of the proximal and distal ends are respectively and mm. The prox- imal half of the other second wing phalanx protrudes from beneath the metatarsals (Fig. 3); its proximal end ( mm breadth) contacts the distal end of a prox- imal wing phalanx. The proximal two thirds of a third wing phalanx (Fig. 2) is tentatively identified on the basis of the breadth of its proximal end ( mm). Several fragmentary bones may represent fourth wing phalanges, but are too incom- plete to assess. Hind Limb. Both femora are preserved in close association (Fig. 3). The complete right femur ( mm length) is presented in dorsolateral view, with only the distal end partially obstructed by overlying bone. The left femur, represented by the diaph- ysis and distal end (fragment length, mm), was removed for histologic exami-.
