=C. dispar.=
The articular faces in the cervicals are a broad transverse oval,
faintly emarginated above for the neural canal. In the dorsals and
lumbars the cup continues transverse, and the emargination is deeper,
but in the anterior caudals the outline becomes a vertical oval. There
appears to have been thirteen mandibular teeth.
Length of axis with odontoid process 32 lines 100
Width between diapophyses 26.8 103
Length from edge of cup to end of ball in
eleventh vertebra 25 100
Width of ball 14 56
Depth of ball 12 43
=C. Wymani.=
In the cervical vertebrae, the outline of the articular faces is
transversely cordate. The centra of the anterior dorsals are elongate,
and much constricted behind the diapophyses. In the anterior caudals,
the articular faces are a broad vertical oval.
Length of axis with odontoid process 19 lines 100
Width between diapophyses 17 89.4
Width of ball 8 42.1
Depth of ball 7 36.7
Length of sixth cervical, without ball 13 100
Width of cup 9 69.1
=C. rex.=
The cervical vertebrae have very broad, transversely oval faces, with
indications of emargination. The dorsals are elongated, with transverse
faces, and a distinct superior excavation for neural canal. The
articular ends of the anterior caudals are vertically oval.
Length of posterior cervical vertebrae 44 mm 100
Vertical diameter of ball 24 54.5
Transverse diameter 29.5 67
Length of a dorsal vertebra 52
=C. stenops.=
The anterior caudals possess wide diapophyses. Their articular faces
are a vertical oval, a little contracted above, sometimes a straight
outline. They present a peculiarly elongate form.
Length of axis (alone) 60 mm 100
Vertical diameter of ball 27 45
Transverse diameter of ball 27 45
Length of the mandible 720 100
Depth at coronoid process 150 20.9
