- The skull of this species is intermediate in form between the , 
Lagenorhynchus and Delphinus. . 
M. Garnot’s description of D. bivittatus, as given by F. Cuvia { 
is very short, but it appears to fit this species. 
The skull, ware Dauphin & museau court, in the Paris Mu- 4 
seum, has teeth $$; triangle extends much in front of the tooth- — 
lme; nasal grooves wide in front; length, 143; beak, 8; width | j 
at notch, 33 inches. It is evidently this species. 7 
There is a skull named D. bivittatus, D’Orbigny, 1830, in the a 
Paris Museum,—beak quite flat above; triangle to near the 
middle of the beak; length of skull, 14; of beak, 7; width at 
notch, 4 inches,—which appears to be only a variety of this spe- b 
cies. 
This is probably the skull of the specimen and skull figured 4 
as D. cruciger, D’Orb. Voy. Amér. Mérid. Mam. t. 21, which is - 
represented as black, the underside from back of chin, and streak — 
on upper part of ee Bde from the eyes to the base of the tail 
white. Teeth .
