Of neither of these bones has a perfect specimen been found. While fragments of humeri are met with frequently, fragments of these bones are rare. In accordance with the analogy with birds the Ulna might be presumed to be the larger bone of the two. But from a study of German specimens the larger bone is found to be the Radius, which according to the mammalian plan is placed in front of the ulna. As a whole, the fore-arm of Ornithosaurians is only to be compared with the insectivorous mammal _Chrysochloris Capensis_, in which there are also three bones in the fore-arm,--the third bone like the _Pteroid bone_ in Ornithosaurians, extending about half-way from the carpus to the humerus, and holding, relatively, a similar position and development to the fibula in bats. The pteroid bone articulated with a separate carpal, and was placed on the side of the arm, adjacent to the radius, which at the distal end extended in German specimens more inward than the ulna. In Chrysochloris the third bone appears to be behind the other bones, and adjacent to the ulna[P]. [Footnote P: See D'Alton and Pander _Chiropteren und Insectivoren_, Bonn, 1831, pl. 5, Chrysochloris.] Among neither birds nor reptiles is any comparable modification of the fore-arm to be found. Then by examining the proximal surface of the proximal carpal, the characters of the distal end of the Radius are readily discovered. The proximal carpal shows on the same surface another articular facets with which however only one fragmentary distal end of a bone corresponds. That accordingly is identified as the ulna. Besides these, three other articular ends of bones occur, one of which fits on to the distal end of the femur. The remaining two are both large bones, with epiphyses which formed portions of the articular surfaces, and are usually wanting. One of these bones corresponds in form with the ulna of a bird, and would fit the facet on the ulnar side of the distal end of the Pterodactyle humerus. The other bone is massive with a sub-quadrate articular end, and might well be the proximal end of the radius. Some specimens are among the largest fragments of Pterodactyle bone known. The only other bone that either of these could be is the distal end of the tibia, a bone not yet known, but probably not unlike that of a bird. I. Distal End of Ulna.
