), it is to be mentioned that the tip of finger II is almost completely desiccated and thus the finger apparently lost some of its total length. However, even at this state of preservation, when fingers I and II are adpressed against each other, they are about equal in length. At most, we could state that finger I is only slightly longer than finger II.
