Of these three vertebrae, the first is much the largest, and is firmly united to the ilium on each side by a structure formed by the transverse processes and expanded ribs.
Its anterior portion is separated from the ilium by the large oval =ilio-sciatic foramen= (fig.
The ilium is attached by ligament to the transverse process of one of the vertebrae.
The ilium is very large, and is united along its whole length with the sacral and pseudosacral vertebrae.
The ilium is flattened and expanded in front (fig.
In Man and the Anthropoid Apes the pelvis is very large and wide, and the ilium has much expanded iliac and gluteal surfaces.

In the lower Anthropoidea the ilium is long and narrow and has a small iliac surface.
The iliumand ischium agree in their general characters throughout all the various groups of reptiles, but that is not the case with the pubis.
This makes it probable that the so-called ilium of the Frog is really to be regarded as an ilio-pubis, and renders the homology of the cartilaginous part uncertain, but it probably corresponds to the acetabular bone of mammals.
The pubis has a strongly developed pectineal process, which occasionally unites with a process from the ilium enclosing a large pre-acetabular foramen.
The ilium and ischium do not as in Carinatae unite posteriorly, and enclose a foramen except in very old Rheas and Emeus.
The pelvis in Notoryctes differs much from that in all other Marsupials, the ilium and ischium being ankylosed with six vertebrae in a manner comparable to that of many Edentates.
In the Dugong it consists on each side of two slender bones, one of which represents the ilium and the other the ischium and pubis; the two bones are placed end to end and are commonly fused together.
The three bones of the pelvis are, except in Archaeornithes, always ankylosed together in the adult, and the iliumis greatly prolonged in front of the acetabulum, which is perforated.
Opposite to Ilium and close to the Hellespont there are to this day trees growing on Protesilaus' tomb, which, in every generation, as soon as they have grown high enough to see Ilium, wither away and again shoot up.

The pectineal process is an anterolaterally directed projection of the ventrolateral edge of the ilium anteroventral to the acetabulum.
The short, thick anterodorsal division, partly covered by the anterior division, turns dorsally and passes through the femoral notch of the ilium and penetrates the deep surface of M.
The femoral notch of the ilium is a shallow notch in the ventrolateral edge of the ilium approximately halfway between the last rib and the pectineal process.
The muscle arises fleshily from the ventrolateral edge of the ilium posterior to the femoral notch and ventral (adjacent) to the origin of M.
The dorsolateral iliac ridge begins at the lateral edge of the ilium near the posterior end of the lateral iliac process and curves posteromedially and somewhat dorsally, extending to the posterior edge of the ilium.
In some cases the origin of pars postica does not include the dorsal end of the internal ilio-ischiatic crest nor the ilium posterior to it.
The ilio-ischiatic fenestra is a large oblong opening behind the acetabulum between the ilium and the ischium.
The oblique iliac crest is a pronounced blunt ridge on the ventral surface of the ilium and extends from the posterolateral corner of the last synsacro-thoraco-lumbar vertebra to near the anteroventral border of the ilio-ischiatic fenestra.
The muscle arises from the ventrolateral surface of the ilium anterior to the acetabulum and posterior to the origin of M.
A superficial depression may form on the iliumwhere it is pressed upon by the head of the femur, covered by the capsule; and in the course of years, as the head changes its position, several secondary sockets may be formed.
The prognosis is unfavourable, particularly in cases complicated by extensive disease of the ilium with abscess formation and mixed infection.

A small awl-like opening was found in the ilium with powdered bone at its entrance leading to the wound of exit.
In this case the track was so oblique as to have necessitated almost pure lateral impact on the part of the bullet; hence the form of injury was nearly allied to the comminutions of the ilium already described.
The opening in the ilium by which the bullet had entered the abdomen was found at the brim of the pelvis; the loin and peritoneal cavity were sponged dry and flushed with boiled water; no lymph was seen on the small intestine.
