at Port Madryn [New Bay] was considered by Ortmann * to belong to 
the Patagonian beds and he held that these beds are Lower Miocene. 
Subsequent allocation.—This skull has been studied quite thor- 
oughly by Lydekker, while Abel”? has figured a restoration of a 
second skull and discussed its affinities. In discussing the relation- 
ships of this genus, Stromer* remarked that according to its organi- 
zation and geological age, it should rather be named Postsqualodon. 
The mandibles, teeth, vertebrae, tympanic. and periotic studied by 
True” were collected by the late J. B. Hatcher in the Patagonian 
beds at San Julian, Santa Cruz Territory.

SQUALODON BARIENSIS BARIENSIS (Jourdan). 
Rhizoprion bariensis JourDAN, C., Comptes Rendus Acad. Sci. Paris, vol. 53, 
pp. 959, 962, 1861.—Lorret, L., Archiv. Mus. d’ Hist. Nat. de Lyons, vol. 4, 
pp. 315-316, pls. 25 bis-25ter, 1887. 
Type specomen.—Original description was based upon a nearly com- 
plete skull with teeth in situ. The tip of the rostrum was missing 
and Jourdan thought that portion was lost or pulverized at the 
time of collection. However, Gervais later obtained this missing 
fragment from Matheron and communicated the fact to Van Ben- 
eden ** who published his letter together with a drawing of the same. 
Type in the ‘‘Muséum des Sciences Naturelles”’ at Lyon, France. 
Type locality—Obtained in a stone quarry at the village of Bari, 
near Taulignan, not far from Saint-Paul-Trois-Chateaux, Department 
of Drome, France, from the lower level of a bed of marine limestone. 
Basal Helvetian ** or Middle Miocene. 
Subsequent allocation.—This species was referred to the genus 
Squalodon by Zittel.> The acquisition of a second specimen of this 
interesting squalodont, which possesses a nearly complete rostrum 
and dentition, has so supplemented the data afforded by the mutilated 
type specimen that little remains unknown concerning the appear- 
ance and proportions of the skull. This find was announced by 
Paquier** and the specimen was obtained from the quarries of Saint-
