Dear Jonny,
This article has really good descriptions and diagrams of the differences
between each rabbit and hare element:
Callou, C. 1997. Diagnose Differentielle des principaux. Elements
squelettiques du Lapin (Genre Oryctolagus) et du Liéve (Genre Lepus) en
Europe Occidentale. Paris. CNRS.
Hope it helps!
Best Wishes
Jennifer
