of first plate at the middle, °8 in.; of second, ‘95 in.; of third plate, 85 in.; of 
fourth, -75 in.; of fifth, -7 in.; of sixth, *6 in.; of seventh, °5 in. 
Fig. 8.—Elephas planifrons. A very fine and characteristic speci- 
men of the last upper molar, right side. Was found in contact with 
the lower jaw specimen, fig. 9. Shows about eight or nine ridges and 
a heel; the three first ridges worn out. The enamel is very thick, 
with irregular lozenge-shaped expansion, and a loop in the middle. The 
plates stand high in relief from the cement. The denticles are very 
few and thick, the last ridge showing only three crown plates very low, 
the Jast being but 24 inches high.—B.M. 
Length of molar, 10: in. Width of crown, 3°5 in. Height behind, 2°65 in. 
Fig. 9.—£lephas planifrons. Last lower molar, right side. Is very 
valuable from having been found in contact with the upper molar 
(fig. 8). Shows only eight ridges and a heel. The plates are very 
thick and low. The sixth ridge shows only four denticles. In this 
and the last figure the discs of wear form transverse bands, which are 
broader, fewer in number, and wider apart than in the Indian Elephant ; 
the bounding edges of enamel are sometimes nearly parallel; in other 
cases they show a slight angular expansion, or throw out a salient loop 
(or outlying) tubercle near the middle.-—B.M. 
Length of molar, 9°5 in. Width of crown, 3°5. Height of crown at sixth 
ridge, 3° in. 
Fig. 10.—Elephas planifrons. Fragment of lower jaw, with ante- 
penultimate and penultimate milk teeth in situ.'—B.M.

Figs. 5 and 5 a.—-Last true mclar, upper jaw, right side. Has 
fourteen plates and a heel, well crimped. From forest bed, Ostend, 
Norfolk. Green collection.—No. 16,229 B.M. 
Length, 10° in. Width, 3-4 in. Height, 6°5 in. 
Figs. 6 and 6 a.—Third milk molar, lower jaw, right side, imperfect. 
1 In the plate this specimen is desig- ? Erroneously designated Elephas me- 
nated E. Hysudricus, but this is doubt- | r7diona/is on plate. The error is corrected 
_Jess an error, as the figure is referred to | in Dr. F.’s handwriting in the copy of 
as that of molar of E. planifrons in | the ‘Fauna Antiq. Sival.’ belonging to 
Dr. F’s Memoir on Fossil Elephants, | the British Museum. See also note,
