The permanent dentition of this species is mainly of the type of 

 Hycena striata, but differs by the presence of m72. In this cha- 

 racter it agrees with the genus Hycenictis of Gaudry, but differs by 

 the absence of pm. 1. The absence of the latter, and the minute 

 size of m. 2 in one specimen, coupled with the one instance of the 

 presence of this tooth in E. crocuta, induces the present writer to 

 include Hycenictis in Hycena.
