Announces the discovery of footprints in Bunter Sandstone near 

 Karlshafen, resembling those of Cheirotherium Barthi ; but the toes 

 seem to have been much more slender, and the great toe may have had 

 a claw. If a new species, it is to be named C. Geinitzi. F. W. H.

Entelodon (Aymard, 1848) was first found in the L. Miocene of Cen- 

 tral France ; fresh remains have lately been found in the phosphate 

 deposits of Tarn and Garonne. It is here shown to be the earliest two- 

 toed form in the pig family. The parts described are the dentition, 

 part of the cranium, scapula, tibia and fibula, the greater part of both 

 manus and pes. The dental formula is m. ^, p. ^, -, i. |. The upper 

 molars have a trapezoid shape ; the crowns have 5 cones (of which 3 

 are anterior), while in the later Suidse these become reduced to 4 ; 

 those of the lower jaw have 4. The lower premolars are a series of 

 sharp conical teeth ; between the anterior and the next is a diastema. 

 The canines are large, of the same form in both jaws, similar to the 

 usual type, and diff'ering quite from the specialized forms of the later 

 Suida). Of incisors only detached ones of the upper jaw were found ; 

 but a lower jaw is described with them in position ; these have here 

 a peculiar arrangement, increasing in size from the central ones out-
