is formed by the premaxilla, which has a median septum separating 

 the two nostrils. From above only the front part of the nostril can 

 be seen. The posterior half is overhung by the nasal, which is 

 nearly twice as wide as the premaxilla. The premaxilla has a long 

 posterior process separating the two nasals, which, although large

 posteriorly. 



The floor of the nostril is formed by the maxilla. This carries 

 a large tusk, which is directed strongly forwards. Posteriorly the 

 maxilla sends back a long process outside and below the jugal 

 reaching to the postorbital bar. The bones in the nostril are slightly 

 crushed, and I am unable to distinguish a separate septomaxilla. 

 If present, it is small and certainly does not occur on the face.
