48886. Palatal portion of the cranium ; from Brixham Cave, near

Lagomys sardus (Hensel '). 



Syn. Myolagus sardus, Hensel 2 . . . - 



Lagomys corsicanus, P. Gervais 3 . 



This species is considerably larger than the last, the length of the 

 space occupied by the five upper cheek-teeth varying from 0,0085 

 to 0,0115. The penultimate upper premolar is large, but the corre- 

 sponding lower tooth is absent ; thus showing its distinctness from 

 all the existing species. The limb-bones agree in size with those 

 of L. ceningensis.
