The four maxillary premolar teeth were measured for 

 greatest anteroposterior width of crown, and the sum of 

 the widths is represented for each skull by the lines in text- 

 figure 50. The sequence in this figure is the same as that 

 for the skull base.

Text-figure 50. Sequence N. Sum of the anteroposterior dimensions of the 

 maxillary premolar teeth. Same skull sequence as text-figure 49. 



The range of total premolar measurements is from 59 mm 

 down to 25 mm, the extremes differing as 2.4 :1. A comparison 

 of text-figures 49 and 50 shows no detailed exactness in cor- 

 respondence of length of skull and size of teeth, but there 

 is indication of a general though irregular agreement which 

 is probably due to a large extent to size differences among 

 the skulls. 



RESUME OF DEDUCTIONS FROM LINEAR MEASUREMENTS 

 MADE ON DIFFERENT SKULL TYPES 



From the foregoing rather comprehensive survey of linear 

 measurements on a group of dog skulls which included a 

 wide range of differences in size and type, we may make the 

 following deductions.
