Humerus (Figs. 4 and 5)–This bone is of the ordinary type, but it is remarkable for its short length and heavy character. This is the more noticeable in view of the great length of the scapula. The figures and the comparative measurements given herewith require little comment. The great radial crest with its upward aspect is rather striking.
