ramus, comprising the part opposed to the upper canine, from 

 the dental canal downwards. The jaw at this place has a large 

 downward-projecting process, very similar to that figured by 

 Marsh in his plate of Dinoccras laticcps. This process curves 

 slightly outward, and has its external side convex in both 

 directions, and its internal side convex fore and aft, concave 

 from above downwards. The posterior mental foramen, 

 which is the only one preserved in our specimen, corresponds 

 in size and position with Dinoceras laticeps. The onl}- dif- 

 ference between the two is a very slight one : in D. the curve 

 of the posterior mai"gin of the process is convex ; in Uinta- 

 tliermin it is concave ; the angle which the process makes 

 with the jaw is also greater.

Teetli. — These are peculiar for their small size compared 

 with the bulk of the animal ; for their slender fangs, and for 

 the distance through which these are exposed.

Canines. — The sockets of these teeth have been already 

 described : the fangs are very long, somewhat longer than the 

 crown, and the teeth apparently grew from permanent pulps.
