On the anatomy of the manatee.
Jour. Mamm. 34(2): 192-203. 3 figs. May 14, 1953.
–Describes the gross anatomy of two Florida manatees, including their external features, skeleton (described in considerable detail), and viscera (covered much more cursorily). Some measurements and organ weights are given, as well as some histological observations. A "thin ligamentous band" representing a clavicle is said to have been observed.
