The skull in the College of Surgeons appears to be the one 
which Mr. Owen gives the measurement of as D. Orca, in his 
account of Phocena crassidens in the British Fossil Mammalia. 
The Grampus of the South Sea whalers is very frequently no- 
ticed in the Pacific Ocean, from the Equator to 44° N. and 10° 
S. latitude. They occur in herds, and their appearance is sup- 
posed to indicate the resorts of the Cachalots. Whether this 
whale is identical with the Grampus (Phocena Orca) of the Nort 
Sea may be fairly questioned; but should it prove to be so, the J 
geographic range of the latter species must be indeed extensive. 
—Bennett, Whaling Voyage, ii. 238. 
Mr. Bennett mentions a Killer which appears in small bands, 
chiefly in the vicinity of the Equator, of a moderate size, spout. 
eivek. like the Cachalot, and has a tall erect dorsal fin. —Bennett >

grown animal, is just one quarter the length and breadth of t th he
