292 A BOOK OF WHALES 



The genus FERESA need hardly detain us long. 

 It is only known from two skulls with 10-12 teeth 

 in each half of each jaw, both assigned now to the 

 same species, F. intermedia (one was described as 

 F. attenuata). Sir W. Flower describes it as "a 

 connecting link between Globiceps, Grampus, and 

 Lagenorhynchus." It must not be confounded with 

 the very doubtful " Delphinus feres" of Bonnaterre, 

 w r hich has been variously interpreted as an Orca or 

 as a Ziphioid.
