On the external side the pre-scapular fossa is concave antero-posteriorly, and plane in the direction of its length; it is very thin in the middle, but becomes heavier at the lateral border. The postscapular fossa is larger and less concave; both fossæ, as they approach the upper border, gain greatly in thickness. The spine rises from the supra-scapular border, and extends to within an inch from the glenoid cavity. It is decidedly antroverted; thickest and highest near glenoid cavity; thinnest and lowest in the middle, expanding again at its upper extremity; its acromio-scapular notch is long and shallow. The acromion is rudimentary. The coracoid process is a low, rugose tuberosity; the coraco-scapular notch is short and low. The internal surface of the scapula has a large, smooth median ridge, extending the whole length of the bone, separating it into slightly concave fossæ. About two thirds up, the median ridge sends obliquely up two branches, forming a V, superimposed upon the main ridge; but these disappear before they reach the upper extremity. The whole inner surface is curved outward, presenting a concave appearance throughout. The glenoid cavity is deep, ovoid in form, with its greatest diameter fore-and-aft, and its smaller end behind. The resemblance between the scapula of _Uintatherium_ and that of the _Proboscidea_ is more closely marked than in any other corresponding bones. The chief points of similarity are: first, the subtriangular shape; second, the same relative proportions between the fossæ; third, the antroversion of the spine; fourth, the glenoid cavity looking directly down. The marked points of difference may be summed up as, first, in the dissimilar proportion of the glenoid cavity; second, the great thickening of the spine at its upper and lower extremities; third, in the high, shallow acromio-scapular notch; fourth, in the longitudinal concavity of the internal surface. _Measurements._ M.
