The hones of the fore-limb, though comparatively diminutive, pi'esent all the oomplexitieB of structure of the unguiculate Hmb. The clavicle, 58, connects the acromion with Ac sternum, and affords a fulcrum to the shoulder- joint. The humerus, articulatingielow with a radius and ulna which can rotate on each other, developes ridges above both ■inner and outer condyles for the extended origin of the muscles of pronation and supina- tion. The brachial artery pierces the entocondyloid ridge. The c...arpal hones, answering to the scaphoid and lunar in the human wrist, are here confluent. The digits are. five in number, enjoy free, independent movements, and are each terminated by a sharp-xiurvcd claw.
Skeleton of the Quadirumana.— The sloth is an exclusively arboreal 'animal; its diet is foliage ; it has but to bring its mouth to the leafy food, and the Hps and tongue serve to strip it from the branches. The extremities, as wo have seen, serve mainly to cUmb and cling to branches, and occasionally to hook down a tempting twig within reach of the mouth.
