106 ODOB^ENUS ROSMARUS ATLANTIC WALRUS. 



In addition to the above-described figures of the general ani- 

 mal, representations of various anatomical details, both of the 

 osteology and the soft parts, have been from time to time pub- 

 lished. As early as 1761, the skull, as previously stated, was 

 figured by Houttuyn, and again by Daubenton* in 1765, these 

 being the earliest figures of the skull to which I find reference. 

 Goethe, in his " Morphologic n (see antea, p. 48), gave important 

 figures illustrative of the dentition and structure of the ante- 

 rior portion of the skull. 



Home, t in 1824, published a series of excellent figures of the 

 extremities and stomach. G. Cuvier, J in 1825, figured skulls 

 and the skeleton, his figures of the skull being also reproduced 

 in the " Disciples " edition of Cuvier's Eegne Animal. Pan- 

 der and d ? Alton, in 1826, in their " Yergleichende Osteolo- 

 gie,"|| gave an excellent figure of the skeleton and detail illus- 

 trations of the skull and limbs. In the figure of the skeleton, 

 the hind feet are turned forward in a plantigrade position, and 

 the fore limbs are given their natural pose. Yon Baer,fi in 

 1835, figured the blood-vessels of the limbs, and, in 1840, 

 De Blainville ** figured the skeleton and the skull. Gray, ft 

 in 1850, gave a view of the skull, the same figure being re- 

 peated in some of his later works. J{ Owen, in 1845, figured 

 the dentition in his " Odontography " (pi. cxxxii, fig. 8), the 

 skull and dentition in 1854, and gave another figure in 

 1868. 1 1 1 1 In 1857, Walrus skulls were figured by Blasius, flff and 

 Leidy *** the same year figured a fossil skull from Monmoutk 

 County, New Jersey. Later, as already noticed (antea, p. 54) r 

 the milk dentition was figured by Malmgren, and also by 



* Buffon's Histoire Nat., tome xiii, pi. Iv. An artistically much improved 

 (but unaccredited) copy of Daubenton's figures appears in Hamilton's "Am- 

 phibious Carnivora" (Jardme's Naturalist's Library, Mam., vol. viii, pp. 

 100, 101).
