PROCEEDINGS OF THE GEOLOGICAL SOCIETY. .Nov. 21,
six wide thoracic rings, somewhat falcate at their outer extremities ;
but the number of joints of the abdomen, the position of the eyes.
Figs. 1-7. — Diagrams q/* Himantopterus.
1. H. bilohus ; half the nat. length ; position of the jaws, on the ander side of
the head, indicated at a.
2 a, one of the jaws and its scale-like markings ; 2 Z», a portion magnified,
3. H. maximus ; part of the head, oiie-fifch the natural length.
4. H. acuminatus ; tail-joint, one-third the length.
5. H. lanceolatus ; last two joints, about one-half the natural size.
6. H. perornatus ; part of three thoracic rings, to show the falcral point and
the scale-like sculpturing on the forward half.
7. Scale-like appendages ; many of these lie loose on the surfaces of stone in
which the fossils occur.
and the appendages are not known ; and we should not be justified
therefore in uniting the two forms on such fragmentary evidence.
From the figure I should suspect the eyes are lateral, as in Himan-
topterus ; the sculpture is like that of our fossils, and the size not
less than that of our smallest species.
There are five species of Himantopterus in the Lanarkshire locality,

and one from South Wales, already known.

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
