SINCLAIR— ENTELODONTS FROM THE 



I. From the Titanotherium Beds. 

 Archcuotherium scotti sp. nov. 

 In 1895 Professor Scott- announced the discovery of the classic 

 specimen now known as No. 10885 ^^^ mounted in the Geological 

 Museum of Princeton University. This almost complete and unique 

 skeleton (not "two almost complete skeletons" as mistakenly stated 

 in the preliminary report) was found in the summer of 1894 by Mr. 

 H. F. Wells in the upper Titanotherium beds in Corral Draw, South 

 Dakota (whether in Pennington or Washington Counties does not 

 appear), was secured by Mr. J. B. Hatcher and excavated by him 

 May II, 1894, and was referred by Professor Scott, in his announce- 

 ment to the International Zoological Congress at Leyden, to Leidy's 



Fig. I. Archcrotherium scoiti sp. nov. Holotype, No. 10885. Three-quar- 

 ter view of the skull and jaws from the left side, in the position in which it 

 stands on the mounted skeleton, approximately one-sixth natural size. Drawn 

 from photograph and the specimen.
