Note 605 — Chapter XVI
Reading edition
This fossil Crocodile supplies a good illustration of the biconvex body of the first caudal vertebra already described as peculiar to these loricated reptiles, see page 656; and I have subjoined Lign. 217 in illustration of this structure.
[606] Most of these valuable fossils are in the British Museum. They are all described in detail and most elaborately illustrated in Prof. Owen’s Monograph, already referred to.
