First Rib H-os head or neck - much compressed in its dorsal 1/3- in the proper mid 7/2 a cross section is oval just just above the articular surface for the clavulum the inner edge has a thin flat plane curved obliquely, rib is widest at articulation with coracoid width distally: 190" Length straight: 113 mil. "at sternal artic.: 115" articulation: 160 Sternum - has curved shape - Length 400 mil. Breadth 400 mil. First Caudal - has the paired epiphysis for the clavicle on its posterior upper edge, there is a cleavage line, which would really be the 2nd caudal but the caudal area is it cleavage been prominent, greater height (post.) = 730 mil. Height body: 550" " breadth (" ) : 710 " breadth : 380. Scapula: Glentoid breadth = 1330 mil. length of coracoid breadth = 900 " (just tip to lower Breadth glenoid fossa: 360" depth glenoid fossa) is 3 in mils. Scapula has a marked depression on its center where it is very thin - probably an error. The suprascapular border is convex, i. e. height near its dorsal edge than in center - Atlas has a thick transverse process projecting outward and slightly upward from the lower bar of the body - the laminae of its arch forming a large sharp ridge - the two hoofed foramina above the bar of atlas are distinct, axis: The axis has a deep & narrow fovea - the latter is nearer to the former, two do not join distally - the neural arch is long & massive. The 3rd & 4th Cervicals have a dia - few processes not meeting distally - the lower process of the 4th is very short - The 6th has a displacement of its left neck, a small knob representing the lower process - this is not present on the right side. The 6th & 7th have only an upper process. All the vertebrae are free and have the cervixes of the arch quadrates above - The 6-7th. Have the highest spines of the series.
