2. NARCINE. 



Disk roundish, elliptical or angular, rounded before, provided 

 with a broad keel. Mouth small, protruding forwards, surrounded 

 by a circular fold of skin, which passes above into the bridle of the 

 nasal flap. Nasal flat straight, with a middle projection, sometimes 

 lengthened a little sideways, so as to become three-tipped. A labial 

 cartilage above and below. Teeth in quincuncial order, with a 

 middle point; and arranged on the border of the jaw so as to 

 form outwards an elliptical plate. The skin which supports them 

 is not adnate to the jaw, but is capable of sliding upon it. A velum 

 behind the upper jaw. Tail longer than the disk. The first back- 

 fin behind the belly-fin, smaller than the second. Spout-holes close 

 behind the eyes. Margin of the spout-holes without teeth.
