this and the following species is similar to that of the true 

 Elephants. The mandibular symphysis is produced into a spout-like 

 termination, as in E. indicus. The cranium has the fronto-parietal 

 region very convex, the constriction of the frontals by the temporal 

 fossa3 being more marked than in the other species. 



Hob. India (Punjab to Siwalik Hills) and (?) China 1 . The 

 species may perhaps also occur in Java. All the following specimens 

 are from the Pliocene of the Siwalik Hills. 



M. 2978. The cranium, showing the third true molars of both sides 

 (Fig.) in an early stage of wear. This specimen is the type, and 



is figured by Falconer and Cautley in the ' Fauna Antiqua 



Sivalensis,' pi. xxvi. 



Cautley Collection. Presented, 1842. 



M. 2979. The cranium, showing the third true molar in a half- 

 (Fig.) worn condition. Figured by Falconer and Cautley, op. tit. 



pi. xxvii., and pi. xxviii. figs. 1-4. There are eight or 



nine ridges in the molar. 



Cautley Collection. Presented, 1842. 



M. 2980. Middle portion of the cranium, showing the partially-worn 

 (Fig.) third true molar, which appears to have eight ridges. 

 Figured by Falconer and Cautley, op. cit. pi. xxix. fig. 1. 

 Cautley Collection. Presented, 1842. 



M. 2981. Occipital segment of the cranium. Figured by Falconer 

 (Fig.) and Cautley, op. cit. pi. xxviii. fig. 5. 



Cautley Collection. Presented, 1842. 



M. 2982. Middle portion of the cranium, showing the half-worn 

 (Fig.) third true molar, which has eight ridges. Figured by 

 Falconer and Cautley, op. cit. pi. xxix. figs. 2, 2 a. 



Cautley Collection. Presented, 1842. 



36682. An imperfect cranium provisionally referred to this species, 



containing the partially-worn m. 3 of either side. The 

 teeth carry eight ridges and a talon. 



Presented by the Secretary of State for India, 1860. 



36683. The palate, showing part of m. 2 and the complete "> 3. 

 (Fig.) Figured by Falconer and Cautley, op. cit. pi. XXIVA. figs. 



1, 1 a (as E. ganesa). There are eight ridges in m. 3 t 

 which cannot be distinguished from the preceding spe- 

 cimens.
