massive, rather elongately ellipsoid as viewed above, and greatest 
width about midway in length, so that constrictions are more or 
less evenly convex anteriorly and posteriorly. Form but slightly 
depressed above, and that over median area which is somewhat 
leveled, sides sloping rather abruptly up. Lower surface more 
depressed or flattened. Pelvic processes forming an abrupt angle 
about 5@ in length of head and trunk, and processes rather con- 
spicuous and protruding somewhat. Head rather large, elon- 
gate, well depressed both above and below, though with former 
surface more or less convex on sides, sloping up rather abruptly. 
Snout broad, depressed above, surface more or less convex, and 
its length about 17% in its width. When viewed above profile of 
snout slightly attenuated convexly in front, with sides sloping
