M. 1564. Cast of five associated upper cheek-teeth. The originals 

 of these specimens were obtained from the Siwaliks of the 

 Punjab, India, and are preserved in the Indian Museum, 

 Calcutta : with the mandible noticed below, they are the 

 type of the species. These teeth comprehend pm. 4 and 

 IP. 1 of either side, and an early premolar of one side ; 

 they are described and figured by the present writer in 

 the ' Palaeontologia Indica,' ser. 10, vol. ii. pp. 226-7, 

 pi. xxx. fig. 2. The carnassial is distinguished from that 

 of H. sivalensis by the smaller size of the anterior talon, 

 and a difference in the size and position of the inner 

 tubercle. The true molar is distinguished by the more 

 quadrate form of the crown, by the convexity of the pos- 

 terior border, and by the smaller degree of development 

 of the external cingulum, and the somewhat less bold 

 form of the outer lobes : the most marked distinction is, 

 however, the closer approximation of the central line of
