An imperfect cranium has recently been described by the present 

 writer (Geol. Mag. dec. 3, vol. ii. p. 443), from the Eed Crag of 

 Boyton, Suffolk (woodcut, fig. 19), which is indistinguishable from 



Fig. 19. 



Canis vulpes. Eight half of the palate; from the Eed Crag of Boyton, Suffolk. \ 



crania of the present species, with the exception of its superior 

 size. If, as seems probable, the specimen is really contemporary 

 with the Crag, it is the earliest recorded occurrence of the species.
