B. Teeth encased in enamel: incisors (3; exceptionally, also two sup- 
plementary posterior teeth, ) continually reproduced from persistent pulps, 
and growing in a circular direction: canines none: molars attypically 
with ridged surfaces. Lower jaw with condyles longitudinal, and not 
received in special glenoid sockets, but gliding freely backwards and 
forwards in longitudinal furrows. Members and feet ambulatorial. 
Placenta discoidal deciduate.

C. Teeth (when developed) not encased in enamel: incisors typically 
absent (lateral present in Dasypus): molars variable: members and feet 
ambulatorial, (modified often for grasping and digging). Placenta diver- 
siform (discoidal deciduate in Orycteropodide and Dasypodide; diffuse 
deciduate in Manidide; and coyledonous non-deciduate? in Bradypo- 
dide).

I. PRIMATES. 
SUB-ORDERS. 
I. Cerebrum with its posterior lobe much developed, wholly or mostly cover- 
ing the cerebellum. Skull with lachrymal foramen within the orbit. 
Orbit separated from temporal fossa by the union of the alisphenoid and 
malar bones. Ears rounded, each with a distinct lobule. Female with 
uterus undivided, and clitoris imperforate. Mammz (2) exclusively pec- 
toral. 
ANTHROPOIDEA. 
II. Cerebrum with the posterior lobe not extended backwards over the entire 
cerebellum, a considerable portion of the latter being uncovered. Skull 
with lachrymal foramen outside the orbit. Orbits open behind, (partially 
closed in Tarsiidae). Ears more or less produced upwards and pointed, 
angulated at their extremities, with no distinct lobules. Female with 
uterus two-horned, and the clitoris perforated by the urethra. Mamme 
variable.

FAMILIES, 
I. Fore limbs withdrawn completely from the locomotive series, and trans- 
ferred to the ecphalic (Dana). Form habitually erect, except in infancy. 
Feet with the great toe produced, and in same plane with others. Teeth 
in an uninterrupted series. Hair scant. (Bimana.) 
HOMINIDAE. (I.)
