They represent worked super-frontals with fringes, and frontals with fringed orphreys at either end: and I saw one altar with a painted imitation of embroidery all over it.
Tailed batrachians, with the frontals distinct from the parietals and the palatines from the maxillary.
The squamosal bone is large and either in contact with the frontals and parietals or separated from them by a vacuity; the orbit is sometimes roofed over by bone.
The expanded portion of the maxillae and frontals broader in front of the orbit.
The origin of the parietals and frontals as paired bones in membrane reinforces this conclusion.
These membrane bones are: along the dorsal middle line, the parieto-frontals (p.
Many surplices, vestments, palles, frontals and ornaments of Idols alters and temples.
In the skull the frontals are broad, and there are long {464} postorbital processes.
The horns are small elevations upon thefrontals just at the junction of these with the nasals, and, indeed, lying partly upon the latter bones.
As in the Cetacea, the nasal bones are limited in size, and the premaxillae send up processes to join the frontals and the nasals.
The postorbital processes of the frontals are totally wanting--there are not even the traces to be seen in Anomalurus.
The mesethmoid is larger than in the carnivorous Marsupials, and the frontals are very large.
Forbes pointed out that in most of the New-World forms the parietals and the malars come into contact; in the Monkeys of the Old World they are hindered from coming into contact by the frontals and the alisphenoids.
The neck and limbs are shorter than in the Giraffe, and the horns, longer than in Giraffa, are placed just above the orbit upon the frontal bones alone, instead of upon the boundary line of frontals and parietals as in Giraffa.
Frontals are usually changed according to the different ceremonies.
Of, pertaining to, or in the region of, the parietal bones, which form the upper and middle part of the cranium, between the frontals and occipitals.
In the skull, the supraorbital processes of the frontals are broader in the rorquals than in others, and the olfactory fossa is less elongated.
The skull is that of a lynx, but the processes of the frontals and intermaxillae are not quite so much produced, and they do not entirely separate the nasal from the maxillae.
Prefrontals often, as in most reptiles, occur lying partly at the sides and partly in front of the frontal, and postfrontals similarly occur behind the orbit lying partly behind the frontals and partly at their sides.
There is a median unpaired ethmoid whose dorsal end appears at the surface wedged in between the frontals and parietals.
The frontals are drawn out, not into permanent horn cores as in the Bovidae, but into short outgrowths, the pedicels, upon which in the Cervidae long antlers are annually developed.
In the Giraffe the frontals bear a small pair of bony cores, which are at first distinct, but subsequently become fused to the skull.
The Saiga antelope has a curiously specialised skull; the nasals are absent or have coalesced with the frontals and the anterior nares are enormously large.
In most cases the frontals meet one another in the middle line between the mesethmoid and orbitosphenoid, but in Man, Simia, and some Cebidae this does not take place.
A and C, 7) connect the frontalswith the maxillae.
A, 6) and parietal bones, but the frontals diverge a little anteriorly and enclose between them the ends of the nasal processes (fig.
The maxillae are large, but do not extend back to cover the frontals as in the Odontoceti.
At the sides of the supra-occipital behind the frontals are a pair of small parietals (figs.
Some anatomists consider that the closing in of the brain case in front is entirely due to the frontals and parietals.
The frontals and parietals on each side are united so as to form a pair of fronto-parietals, and a girdle-like sphenethmoid is present.
Just in front of the orbit the outer margins of the frontals are either notched or pierced by a pair of foramina.
There are large prefrontals, but the frontals are very small.
For examples of this ornate and graceful, but frivolous style, we may remember the mosaic altar frontals throughout the basilica of St. Peter's at Rome.
No postfrontal bones; præfrontals meeting, or narrowly separated on the median line.
The head is covered with nine large symmetrical shields, but the internasals and præfrontals are sometimes broken up into scales.
Usually with 9 shields on the head, or internasals and præfrontals broken up into scales.
The supra-occipital bone rises upwards and forwards from the foramen magnum, to meet the frontalsat the vertex, completely excluding the parietals from the upper region; and the frontals are expanded laterally to form the roof of the orbits.
On the side towards me the frontals and middles were good, the tops poor, but stags were scarce, and hoping for the best I dropped him with one shot.
The glass showed that though he had good tops, both middles and frontals were very poor, so we decided to leave him and go back to the first stag.
The head was a pretty open one, but the middles and frontals were poor, so we left him alone.
It was difficult to determine the points, owing to the bits of velvet hanging all about, but getting the glass on to him I saw that though the frontals were good the rest of the head was very indifferent, so he had too to be passed.
The suture between the nasals and frontals varies from V-shaped to truncate to W-shaped.
In front was often a hanging panel of embroidered cloth (the frontal; but frontals of wood, ornamented with carving or enamel, &c.
These embroidered frontals are changeable, so that the principal colour in the pattern can accord with the liturgical colour of the day.
Many birds possess a more or less well developed cross-joint in front of the frontals and lacrymals, perhaps best developed in Anseres and Psittaci.
Prefrontal bones are absent; post-frontals are possibly indicated by a frequently occurring separate centre of ossification in the post-orbital process, to which the frontals always contribute.
The skull (plates 29 and 30) lacks most of the braincase; a fragment, consisting of the supraoccipital and the coalesced frontals and parietals remains.
All the right, and part of the left nasal, the upper part of the right maxilla, the postorbital process and intervening area of frontals are missing.
Measured from ventral face of palatine bones at posterior edge of upper molars to dorsal face of frontals in plane of postorbital processes of frontals.
He denied the resemblance of the frontal and nasal "vertebræ" to true vertebræ, pointing out that both parietals and frontals are bones specially developed for the purpose of roofing over and protecting the cerebrum.
The frontals and parietals show a peculiar mode of origin in the adder, differing from their origin in other Vertebrates.
So, too, the frontals and parietals of Teleosts developed independently of the cartilaginous skull, and belonged to the skeletal system of the skin, not to the true vertebral axial skeleton (pp.
The frontals develop in continuity with the orbitosphenoids, the parietals in continuity with the alisphenoids, and so have much resemblance with the vertebral neural arches which surround the spinal column (p.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "frontals" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
