last three premolars, the carnassial, and ^~2 ; from the 

 Upper Eocene of Apt. The dentition of this specimen 

 appears to agree precisely with that of the mandible figured 

 by P. Gervais (pp. cit. fig. 1). 



Bravard Collection. Purchased, 1852. 



28122. Part of the right ramus of the mandible, showing the last 



three premolars ; from the Upper Eocene of Apt. In this 

 specimen p m . 4 is rather larger than in No. 27573, and the 

 ramus is somewhat deeper ; it is, however, very doubtful 

 if these differences can be considered more than individual 

 characters. The present specimen is entered in Bravard's 

 Catalogue as C. antiqua, Bravard.

28123. The greater portion of the right ramus of the mandible, con- 



taining the whole of the teeth in a damaged condition and 

 the perfect lower carnassial of the opposite side ; from the 

 Upper Eocene of Apt. These specimens are precisely similar 

 to No. 27573. Bravard Collection. Purchased, 1852. 



28124. Detached teeth provisionally referred to this species ; from 



the Upper Eocene of Apt.

This is a large species, which, in the small size and backward 

 position of the inner cusp of the lower carnassial and the low crown 

 of its blade, connects the more Yiverroid species (e. g. C. compres- 

 sidens) with Amphicyon and Canis. 



Hab. France. 



M. 1664. The greater portion of the left ramus of the mandible, con- 

 taining the second premolar, the carnassial, the second true 

 molar, and the alveoli of the other cheek-teeth ; from the 

 Upper Eocene of Bach, near Lalbenque (Lot), France. 

 This specimen agrees precisely with the less perfect portion 

 of the mandible figured by Filhol in the Ann. Sci. Geol. 

 vol. vii. pi. xvii. figs. 50, 51. The space occupied by the 

 seven cheek-teeth is 0,070. Purchased, 1884. 



M. 1661. Two specimens of the middle portion of the right ramns of 

 the mandible, containing the second and third premolars 

 and the carnassial ; from the Upper Eocene of Bach. 



Purchased, 1884.
