Anterior Premolars {supernumerary). 



Upper Jaw. 



266. F. pardus : right P^ single and normal; on 1. side two such teeth, 

 both standing at level anterior to right P 1 . The anterior is of same size 

 as right p^, the posterior is rather smaller. B. M., 87. 4. 25. 1. 



267. F. eyra : two small anterior premolars in left upper jaw, Baird, U. S. and Mex. 

 Bound. Swrv., Pt. 2, PI. xni. figs. 2, a and 2, c [anomaly not mentioned in text]. 



*268. F. catus, Athens. Two small anterior premolars in upper

 upper jaw of F. inconspicua, No. 269. 



F. inconspicua (= torquata). Rajpootana. Two small an- 

 terior premolars in upper jaw both sides ; both small, diastema 

 between them. Posterior is nearly in contact with "jt) 3 ", while 

 anterior is only a little behind canine (Fig. 46, II.). B. M., 85. 

 8. 1. 26. (Another specimen has p^_ as large single-fanged 

 tooth.) 



F. domestica (out of 38 skulls) : internal to and rather behind left p} is an 

 almost identical copy of it, though rather smaller. Not a milk-tooth. C. S. M., 414. 



Out of 252 skulls two anterior premolars on Ijoth sides, 4 cases ; on right, 2 cases; 

 on left, 1 case [none specially described]. Hensel, Morph. Jahrb., 1879, v. p. 553. 



F. caligata, Socotra : outside right p} t a small extra tooth. In this specimen )j} 

 on each side has two roots. B. M., 857, b. 



Doubtful cases of extra upper anterior premolar, F. pardus, C. S. M. 365 ; F. leo, 

 C. S. M. 308. 



Lower Jaw. 



273. F. concolor : a supernumerary anterior premolar on both sides 

 present, Berl. Anal. Mus., 3678. Hensel, ibid. F. catus or mani- 

 culata : ditto. Frank/. Mils., Hensel, ibid. F. catus : ditto, on 

 left side, closely resembling^ 1 . Two cases, B. M., 1143 and 1143, a. 



274. F. domestica : (in 252 skulls) a supernumerary premolar on both 

 sides, just in front of and nearly same size as the usual "P 2 ," one case ; 

 on left, as a very small tooth midway between canine and "p*" one 

 case; on right, rather larger than in foregoing and nearer to "//-'," 

 one case. Hensel, ibid. 



275. F. tetraodon: alveolus for small anterior premolar in right lower 

 jaw; but as this fossil form very rare, uncertain whether normally
