Dr. Jacob, in his description of Cetodiodon Hunteri (Dublin 
Phil. Journ. 1825), observes, that there are no teeth in the palate. 
‘He believes that the three skulls in Dublin, viz. of the skeleton 
in Mus. Coll. Surg. Dublin; a skull, Royal Dublin Society; anda 
‘skull in the Museum of the School of Anatomy, Peter’s Street, 
Dublin,—belong to one species; they all have two teeth in the 
lower jaw, hid in the gums. In the Zoology of the Erebus & 
Terror, t. 3. fig. 4 & 5, is a representation of one of the skulls of 
this species in the Dublin Museum, from a drawing kindly com- 
“municated by R. Ball, Esq. 
_ There is a skeleton of this species in the Museum of the Edin- 
burgh University. 
_ By the kindness of Mr. 8. Stutchbury I have been enabled (in 
‘the Zoology of the Erebus and Terror, t. 3. f.1, animal, f. 2, tatl, 
-£.3, blowers) to give a new figure of this species, from a drawing 
nade by Mr. W. H. Baily, of a specimen taken at Aust Passage, 
Oct. 1840. The measurements, on the drawing taken at the time, 
are as follows :—
