M. 1662. Hinder portion of the left ramus of the mandible, showing

 tion. 



Hob. France. 



M. 1368. Fragment of the left maxilla, containing the last four 



(Fig.) cheek-teeth ; from the Upper Eocene of Caylux (Taru-et- 



Garonne), France. This specimen (woodcut, fig. 14) 



Fig. 14. 



Cynodictis gryei, Filhol. Fragment of the left maxilla ; from the 

 Upper Eocene of Oaylux. \. 



agrees precisely with the type cranium figured by Filhol 

 in the Ann. Sci. Geol. vol. vii. pi. xix. fig. 60, but shows 

 m. 2, which is wanting in that specimen. This tooth is 

 remarkable for the great development of its inner portion, 

 and the extremely low elevation of the cusps on the crown. 

 A similar character is presented by m. 3, and the carnassial 

 is also remarkable for its antero-posterior shortness and 

 great transverse breadth. In all these characters there is 

 good evidence of the species belonging to a very primitive 

 type. Purchased, 1884.
