224. Several detached incisor and molar teeth of a species of Saryw. Hunterian. 



225. The left preinaxillary and prcmandibular hours of a Sparoid fish (Saryut), 

 showing the incisive form of the anterior teeth and the hemispheric tul>crcular 

 crowns of the posterior or molar teeth : the succcssional teeth arc exposed in 

 some of the closed alveoli. In the Catalogue of 1832 it is referred to the 

 Sjoanu tnfonit<> of Lacepede. Mu* Brit. 



226. The upper and lower jaws of a Sparoid fish from New Holland (Chrytophry* 



atulralw). The alveolar walls have been removed from the right side of both 

 jaws, to show the genus of the succewional teeth in the cavities of reserve. 

 The section likewise shows the union by anchylosis to the jaw of the teeth in 

 BM Hunterian. 



227. The premaxillary bones and left dentary bone of the Gilt head Brcain (Chryso- 

 phrys aurata). The incisors here present the form of obtuse canines ; the 

 molars are arranged irregularly, except those of the outer row: of the inner 

 molars one is remarkable for its superior size and oval shape in each of the 

 three bones. Miu. Brit. 



228. The premaxillary and premandibular bones of a smaller species of Chrysophryg, 



from the Cape of Good Hope. Presented by Dr. Leach. 



229. The right premaxillary bone of a young Chrysophryt. Hunterian. 



230. The lower jaw and teeth of a Sparoid fish of the genus Chrysopkrys. 



There is a mull bone wedged into the lower angle of the articular piece : the anterior 

 conical teeth are four in number and rather obtuse : the nibhemispberical molariform teeth 

 are in two row* on each denUry bone : minute granular teeth are scattered along the inner 

 side of these teeth. 



Hunterian. 



231. The right premaxillary bone of a Sparoid fish (Chrytopkryal), with one long 



and strong but obtuse laniarifonn tooth at the fore-part of the alveolar border, 

 succeeded by a second of half its size, and this by a group of nine or ten much 

 smaller and more obtuse teeth. Hunterian.
