206 THE LONG-EABED CAPE DOG. 



The proportion borne by the fourth upper premolar to the first two 

 upper molars is as 100 to 220. 



The less sectorial character of the teeth is very marked, and though 

 the pattern they follow is the same as in the other Canidte, the smaller 

 development of the cutting-blades of the sectorial teeth is obvious on 

 the most cursory examination.
