Seventh thoracic: Metapophyses long, extending horizontally, straight superiorly. A small articular facet on the outer side near the base, directed downward; strongest on right side. A very small facet on posterior upper edge of centrum, scarcely noticeable on right side. Neural spine rather narrow at tip; superior margin straight. Eighth thoracic: Metapophyses squared and thin. A distinct transverse process on side of centrum about half as broad as the centrum is long, and as long as centrum is broad; flattened, squared, and a little curved backward and upward. Articular facet for rib elliptical and directed obliquely backward. A broad, shallow groove across base of transverse process, the anterior edge of which is emarginate proximally. Neural spine as in seventh thoracic. Ninth thoracic: Metapophyses squared. Transverse process similar to that of eighth thoracic, but equal to centrum in length, little narrowed at base, and directed outward; anterior edge convex, posterior concave; articular facet occupying the posterior half of the distal edge. A very shallow groove proximally. _Newport_ (male).—First thoracic: Neural spine a little curved backward and rounded at tip; much higher than length of arch and centrum together. Articular facets as in Barnegat skeleton. Seventh thoracic: Metapophyses similar in shape to those of Barnegat skeleton but with a very distinct facet on side of arch, terminating a process about as long as the greatest diameter of the facet; surface of facet rugose. Below this process, on side of centrum, a very large, oval, sessile facet, reaching forward nearly to the anterior face of the centrum and upward to its superior edge. A very low, small swelling on the posterior superior edge of centrum, probably indicating the point of attachment of a cartilage connecting the head of the eighth rib. Neural spine expanded at free end, and superior margin rounded. Eighth thoracic: Metapophyses similar to those of Barnegat skeleton. A distinct transverse process nearly as broad as the length of the centrum, oblong or squared, flat, directed somewhat backward, but not upward. Articular facet for rib not occupying whole of free end and only slightly directed backward; anterior margin as in Barnegat skeleton. Neural spine similar to that of seventh thoracic. Ninth thoracic: Similar to that of Barnegat skeleton, but transverse process longer than centrum and directed a little downward, articular facet occupying less than posterior half of free margin; proximal groove inconspicuous; anterior and posterior margins nearly straight.
