Distinct elongated beak; pronounced bulge to forehead; blowhole located in lateral crease behind bulge; body to 32 feet (9.
Stranded Specimens Stranded striped dolphins should be readily identifiable by the highly distinctive patterns of lateral striping discussed above for living animals.
Gopherus agassizii, morphologically the closest Mexican relative of flavomarginatus, differs from it in having a narrower head and in lacking the contrasting pale and dark coloration of the plastron and lateral marginal area.
Lying at the outer side and slightly dorsal to the tympanic cavity is a deep depression, the =lateral tympanic recess=, and immediately in front of this is the articular surface for the quadrate.
The surface of the centrum is marked by more or less wedge-shaped depressions, one in the mid-dorsal line, and two on the ventral surface immediately mesiad to the bases of the ventri-lateral process.
In the next few vertebrae the centra gradually lengthen, and at the fourth or fifth vertebra the ventri-lateral processes appear and gradually increase in size as followed back.
Lateral ethmoids are developed, and there are ossifications in the sphenoidal region which vary in different forms.
The lateralportions are somewhat flattened and expanded, and bear in addition to those previously mentioned a pair of small downwardly directed facets, the postzygapophyses, which articulate with the prezygapophyses of the second vertebra.
In the anterior region where the ventri-lateral processes are short they arise from the ribs, further back they arise from the ventri-lateral processes.
The articulation is such as to allow but littlelateral play of the lower jaw.
In Labyrinthodontia there is an exoskeletal ventral buckler formed of three plates, a median one, which probably represents an interclavicle, and two lateral ones, which are probably clavicles.
They cover the posterior fontanelles and stretch over from the sphenotic to the lateral ethmoid, forming a roof for the orbit.
To prevent lateral pressure bulging the silo two iron rods should be run through the partition walls joining the sides of the building, placing one about two feet above the partition sill and the other about four feet above that.
One of the difficulties in silo construction is to avoid spreading of the building, which sometimes occurs through lateral pressure of the contents when settling.
I consider the "Baucher" snaffle the best, as the bars on either side prevent it from slipping into the horse's mouth under a strong lateral pressure.
A horse is said to "lead" at a canter with his right foot when the lateral movement of his right foot is more marked than that of his left.
Upper parts paler and less drab; lateral line brighter and more ochraceous; underparts never buffy; skull averaging larger in all measurements taken except interparietal breadth and length of maxillary tooth-row which are smaller.
They differ from the latter in several minor cranial features and more drab back, sides and lateral line.
We have heard it asserted that the laterallobes were enormously developed, but having made enquiry on this subject, we do not find they were more developed than is usual.
There is in both the same coronal elevation, occipital compression, and lateral protuberance accompanied with frontal depression, which mark the American variety in general.
The rudimentary thorax presents traces of a division into three segments; and the dorso-lateral margins of the cephalic blastoderm, behind the procephalic lobes, have a sinuous margin.
The nasals are only slightly pointed anteriorly, and posteriorly they bear short, blunt palatine processes and medial processes in contact with the lateral corners of the ethmoid.
The skulls are uniformly broad with angular lateral margins, and truncate anteriorly.
One branch of this second stock retained tadpoles having only one row of labial papillae and did not develop lateral processes on the frontoparietals; this branch evolved into S.
Two muscles arise from the anterior arm of the squamosal and insert on the lateral face of the mandible.
The median and lateral edges of the prenasal processes lengthen heterochronously, causing the median edges to be longest and to lie slightly dorsal to the level of the septomaxillaries.
Lateral view of the left jaw of Smilisca baudini; A.
Shortly thereafter the anterior arm of the squamosal ossifies, the distal part of the columella appears, and the anterior and lateral parts of the auditory region ossify.
The posteromedial points do not reach the lateral margins of the ethmoid, and the maxillary processes extend about three-fourths the distance from the bodies of the nasals to the maxillaries.
Ossification begins in the lateral flanges, then in the prevomerine processes, and lastly in the posterior dentigerous parts of the bones; the prevomerine processes are the last parts of the vomers to ossify completely.
The humerus is equally well-developed in both sexes and has a prominent lateral crest.
Features such as the deposition of additional bone that roofs the skull or that forms lateral projections from the frontoparietals, like those in S.
Battle at Thapsus At last Caesar, after being joined by his last reinforcements, made a lateral movement towards Thapsus.
Suddenly the ladder swerved in a lateral direction, I adhered to it manfully, myself and the ladder coming simultaneously to the ground with astounding velocity.
Again for the elbow the painful place is at the front of the tip of the internal condyle; the fan-shaped internal lateral ligament has its apex at that point, and it is most stretched in over-supination, with extreme extension of the forearm.
The lateral control is by a new invention by Octave Chanute and Laurence J.
If thelateral equilibrium is perfect the extreme ends of the machine will be on a dead level.
Refers to the movement of the lateral portions on the same side to the same angle.
The vertical keel is for lateral stability; the rudder for direction.
Placing the two wings of an aeroplane at an angle of three to five degrees to each other is perhaps the oldest way of securing lateral balance.
All successful aeroplanes thus far have maintained lateral balance by the principle of changing the angle of incidence of the wings.
This is pivoted at its lateral center 8 feet from the front edge of the main planes.
Lateral stability is obtained by warping the end wings by moving the lever at the right hand of the operator, connection being made by wires from the lever to the wing tips.
Means for simultaneously imparting such movement to saidlateral portions to different angles relatively to each other.
Not only the face, but the lateral and occipital walls as well are flattened; so also is the forehead, which in general is quite vertical.
Asymmetry of form is perceived by observing successively the two external ears according to the lateral norms; their morphological aspect should correspond on the two sides.
Below the two parietal bones, in a lateral direction, are the two temporal bones; and between the temporal and parietal bones are situated the great wings of the sphenoid.
This anomaly may be perceived also from the lateral norm.
The lateral parts of the cranium are flattened to such a degree that the vault is extremely narrow along the sagittal line (see Figs.
The manubrium and the corpus form, at their juncture, an angle more or less marked, according to the individual, and the lateral articulation of the second rib corresponds to this angle.
It is instructive to see that, although the lateral groove terminates, the separation between the two groups of muscles is still marked out by a ridge of muco-cartilage, represented in Fig.
Both scorpions and spiders possess many eyes, of which two are {76}always separate and median in position, while the others form lateral groups; all these eyes possess a simple retina and a simple corneal lens.
Ray Lankester describes in the entosternite of Mygale peculiar cell-nests strongly resembling those of Hypoctonus, and he also states that they are confined to the lateral portions of the entosternite.
Now, these two lateral horns of the plastron of Limulus are continued along its whole length so as to form two thickened lateral ridges, which are conspicuous on the flat surface of the rest of this median plate.
According to von Kennel, the cavity becomes divided into three spaces, which for a time are in communication--a lateral (I.
I entirely agree with Schimkewitsch that the nests of cartilage-cells are much more extensive in, and indeed nearly entirely confined to, these twolateral trabeculae in the entosternite of Hypoctonus.
From a lateralchamber a priest, unfit for other than menial services because of a carbuncle on his lip, dropped the wood he was sorting for the altar and gazed curiously at the advancing throng, in which the prisoner was.
From the lateral chamber the priest still peered, the carbuncle glistening on his lip.
Through the lateral entrance to the terrace a number of guests had entered.
The wings of Hexapoda are lateral expansions of the terga of the second and third thoracic somites.
Each can be readily compared with the single-layered lateral eye of the scorpion.
The lateral eyes of Hexapoda, like those of Crustacea, belong to the most specialized type of "compound eye," found only in these two classes.
The lateral eyes of Crustacea are polymeniscous, with highly specialized retinulae like those of Hexapoda, and unlike the simpler compound lateral eyes of lower Arachnida.
The Segmented Lateral Appendages or Limbs of Arthropoda.
The monomeniscous eye is rarely provided with a single layer of cells beneath its lens; when it is so, it is called monostichous (simple lateral eye of Scorpion, fig.
Its lateral edges would mark the limits of the instability of G.
The structure of the eye is not similar to that of the lateral eye, but more like that of some of the invertebrates.
It, too, would have its centre of maximum instability and its lateral edges of lessening instability.
They occur in the head and along the "lateral line" which runs down the side of the fish, and may be readily seen, for example, in the cod.
The lateral edges of the spectrum would be the limits of the instability of R.
The bases of the shafts have been Perpendicularised, probably when the vault was added, and the Norman character of the lateral shafts spoilt by scraping.
On the aisle side are two shafts to each transverse arch; and on the two lateral faces are triple shafts to the arcade arches, with four angle shafts at each corner of the main pier, taking the outer rings to same.
Between these two points runs a dark curved line exactly representing the midrib of a leaf, and from this radiate on each side a few oblique lines, which serve to indicate the lateral veins of a leaf.
Each foot possesses three complete toes; while the lateral toes are much larger in proportion to the middle toe than in Hipparion, and doubtless rested on the ground in ordinary locomotion.
It presents three complete toes--one large median and two smaller lateral ones; and there is a rudiment of that digit, which answers to the little finger of the human hand.
On one stretch it was found necessary to adopt a compromise between the wisdom of the serpent and the aimlessness of the crab, advancing by lateral jerks in a semi-recumbent attitude.
The difficulties of the South Gully are not so severe, but such as they are they must be climbed, as there is no lateral escape.
A stream, deep in a rocky gorge, rushed on each side of us, to one of which we gradually descended, passing over many lateral gullys and along the faces of some precipices by means of native bamboo bridges.
Between these two points there runs a dark curved line exactly representing the midrib of a leaf, and from this radiate on each side a few oblique marks which well imitate the lateral veins.
The summit is an irregular undulating plain with a low bordering ridge, and one deeplateral chasm.
This causes the lateral branches to grow very strong, so that some of the trees become perfect hemispheres, loaded with fruit from top to bottom, and producing from ten to twenty pounds each of cleaned coffee annually.
Observe that this dome is self-sustaining, and that its substructions, strictly speaking, would amply suffice for its support; the lateral pyramids being only its not indispensable auxiliaries.
