24 .-- The Largest Known Dinosaur.

Sketch reconstruction of _Brachiosaurus_, from specimens in the Field Museum in Chicago, and the Natural History Museum in Berlin.] At the date of writing this handbook only preliminary accounts have been given of the marvellous finds made near Tendaguru by the expedition from Berlin.

From these it appears that in length of neck and fore limb this East African Dinosaur greatly exceeded either _Brontosaurus_ or _Diplodocus_.

The hinder parts of the skeleton however, were relatively small.

The proportions and measurements given tally closely with the American _Brachiosaurus_, a gigantic sauropod whose incomplete remains are preserved in the Field Museum in Chicago and to this genus the Berlin authorities now refer their largest and finest skeleton.
