). In dorsal view, the zygosphene is wide with small and pointed lateral lobes and a rather wide and blunt medial lobe; thus, the cranial margin of the zygosphene appears to be convex. The prezygapophyseal articular facets are rather small with an oval outline and their long axis extended anterolaterally. The only preserved right prezygapophyseal process is slen- der and almost as long as the prezygapophyseal facet. It is anterolaterally directed with a pointed distal termination. In ventral view, the vertebral centrum is elongated craniocaudally. The morphology of the haemal keel strongly depends on its position within the vertebral column. On anterior trunk vertebrae, the haemal keel is narrow and sometimes has a sharp ventral margin. In the middle trunk vertebrae, the haemal keel extends slightly towards the caudal margin of the centrum, and rather indistinct furrows sometimes occur along the haemal keels axis. In the posterior trunk vertebrae, the ventral margin of the haemal keel is rather flat and may laterally overhang its narrow base slightly (

The parapophyses are rather short. The postzygapophyseal articular facets are subrectangular and slightly laterally elongated. In cranial view, the neural arch is vaulted, and the neural canal is wide and rounded with small lateral sinuses. The cranial margin of the zygosphenal lip is arched dorsally but the medial lobe can be bent slightly ventrally. The prezygapophyseal processes are also bent slightly ventrally. The paracotylar foramina occur within deep depressions on either side of the slightly dorsoventrally depressed cotyle. In caudal view, the zygantral area is wide. The base of the condyle is flattened. The vertebral dimensions of the largest vertebrae from 1/2001 Turtle Joint are as follows (n = 7): cl: or =

M-P) is fragmentary with loss of the distal tips of the pleurapophyses and haemapophyses as well as damaged prezygapophyses. In lateral view, the neural spine height is about a quarter of its length. In dorsal view, the vertebra is strongly elongated craniocaudally. The neural arch is cylindrical. Prezygypophyses with strongly elongated prezygapophyseal articular facets are directed anteriorly rather than anterolaterally. Therefore, we conclude that these caudal vertebrae belong to the same taxon as above described trunk vertebrae.
