Description
BMNH 1972.1.22.3
40 mm
Most muscles still intact but cut horizontally at the level of the coronoid (presumably to inspect the interior of the mouth and/or cross-sectional areas of the muscles). Detail of the m. Depressor Mandibulae is also visible.
BMNH1922.6.16.2
64 mm
Very little of the jaw muscles remains but fascia is still present in the lower temporal fenestra.
BMNH 1969.2204
62 mm
Adductor muscles dissected on left side. The right side of the neck has been partially dissected. It may be the specimen referred to by Haas (1973) and is probably the specimen used by Al-Hassawi (2004, 2007)
FMNH 270560
both around 60
mm long
Two Sphenodon heads partially dissected. Once belonged to Professor Carl Gans. Possibly referred to as CG 5369 and CG 5370 by Gorniak et al. (1982).
