The illustration of the left pes (fig. 3 of Ramsay) depicts the orientation of toes and claws in a position that closely match the fixed position in M.787, e.g., the manner in which digit 5 is bent outward and the claws on digits 4 and 5 are bent back. However, the same cannot be said of Ramsays illustration of the manus (his fig. 2), which does not closely resemble the specimen.
