to the posterioi' canal, and the teeth usually number about 

 twenty-two ; the inner lip in some specimens is also tootlied for 

 its full I'emaining lengtli, with the same number of similar though 

 smaller teeth, whereas in others they sliow a marked tendency to 

 become obsolete at the posterior end. In one well-pi'eserved 

 example showing this tendency I have still been able to count 

 sixteen distinctly visible teeth on this lip. All these points of 

 difference are at lirst sight striking, and might be regarded as of 

 specific value, but a close examination of a number of specimens 

 will, I think, convince anyone that we are not dealing with more 

 than an extreme form of C. platyrhyncha, McCoy.
