arr. 16, TWO SQUALODONTS FROM MARYLAND—KELLOGG. Ai 
in his description of the supposed new species, ehrlichii, associated 
two distinct cetaceans under this name. Van Beneden’s material 
included a skull with two squamosals, frontal, maxillae and premax- 
illae, ethmoid, and vomer; five cheek teeth are in place, all two-rooted, 
but only two have perfect crowns. This skull is the one that was 
mentioned by Klipstein. In addition to this skull, Van Beneden 
made reference to one premolar and two caniniform teeth and associ- 
ated the skull of the supposed young squalodont® with this species. 
The skull of the young squalodont was removed from Squalodon 
ehrlichit by Brandt® and a new species, Squalodon incertus [= Agri- 
ocetus incertus = Agriocetus austriacus Abel], was erected for it. 
In 1912, Abel” proposed a new genus Patriocetus, partly for the 
skull mentioned by Klipstein and partly for a well-preserved skull” 
found subsequently. Abel considered that the skull represented a 
precursor of the true whalebone whales and proposed to place it in a 
new family, the Patriocetidae. Winge” thought that perhaps Patri- 
ocetus might belong to the family Balaenidae, but it was not suffi- 
ciently represented by skeletal material to be definitely allocated. 
Thus a specific name for Grateloup’s Squalodon from Leognan, 
France, was never proposed by Von Meyer and he simply erred in 
his allocation of the Linz specimen to the genus Squalodon. Van 
Beneden” in revising the group applied the name grateoupu to 
Grateloup’s specimen and redescribed Von Meyer’s Squalodon grate- 
loupit under the name of Squalodon ehrlichti. This action does not 
restrict the name grateloupii to Grateloup’s specimen, for, as remarked 
above, Ehrlich had more than 15 years previously described and fig- 
ured under the name Sgqualodon grateloupwi the skull discussed by 
Klipstein and Von Meyer. In view of the above facts it is necessary 
to select another name for Grateloup’s specimen which previously 
has been known as Squalodon grateloupu. For further discussion see 
remarks under Delphinoides gratelupi Pedroni.
