48164 m. Tlie left femur. This bone is relatively more slender 

 than the femui" of P. mitratus, and thereby agrees with 

 the imperfect femur of P. (/racilis figured by Milne- 

 Edwards in his ' Oiseaux Fossiles de la France,' pi. xxxviii. 

 figs. 0, 7. 



48164 m 1. The left femur. This specimen is slightly shorter than 

 the preceding. 



48164 m 2. The right femur. Slightly shorter than the last. 



48164 m 3. The left femur. This specimen is considerably shorter 

 than the preceding one. 



48164 n. The imperfect proximal extremity of the left tibio-tarsus. 



48164 nl. The distal extremity of the left tibio-tarsus, with the 

 anterior surface concealed by matrix. 



48164 n 2. The imperfect distal extremity of the left tibio-tarsus. 

 The bridge over the groove for the extensor tendons is 

 obscured by matrix. 



48164 u 3. The condylar portion of the left tibio-tarsus. 



48164 n 4. The imperfect distal extremity of the right tibio-tarsus. 



48164 0. The proximal extremity of the left tarso-metatarsus. The 

 large anterior pneumatic foramen and the greatly developed

The undermentioned specimen appears to be in some respects 

 intermediate between the preceding and following species. 

 Hab. Europe (Bavaria). 



48164*. The imperfect posterior portion of the cranium ; from the 

 Middle Miocene of Steinheim. The general shape of the 

 occipital fossa is the same as in P. mtenncdms, but the 

 ridge above the foramen magnum is more like that of 

 P.fraasi. Purchased, 1877. 



Pelecanus fraasi, Lydekker (n. sp.). 



Skull relatively wider than in P. intermedms, with the occipital
