NOTE. 



Since the manuscript of this article has been placed in proof two articles have appeared from 

 the pen of Prof. S. VV. Williston: 



1. Restoration of Seymouria baylorensis Broili, an American Cotylosaur. Journal of 



Geology, vol. xix, 191 1, pp. 232-237. 



2. A new family of reptiles from the Permian of New Mexico. American Journal of Science, 



vol. xxxi, 191 1, pp. 37 8 "39 8 - 



In the first of these the author presents a restoration of Seymouria and discusses its habits. 

 The family name Seymouridm is proposed without specific characterization. 



In the second a new family, Ltmnoscelidte, based on the genus and species Limnoscehs paludis, 

 is proposed from material in the collection of the Peabody Museum of Yale University. The new 

 family belongs in the suborder Pareiasauria, as defined in this paper. Its characters as compared 

 with the other families of the suborder are as follows (see table in): 



D. Ltmnoscelidte. 



1. Skull large as that of Diadectes. Narrowed in front, broad in the temporal region. Not 



rugose. 



2. Basioccipital and basisphenoid large. The latter well formed and separated from the 



basioccipital by a well-marked suture. Basipterygoid processes large. 



3. Incisor teeth large; the median pair the largest. The cheek teeth conical, largest in th§ 



anterior part of the jaws. Probably only one row in each jaw.
