RHINOCEROTID^:. 143 



This specimen is slightly smaller than the one figured by 

 Filhol, op. cit. pi. i., but is otherwise very similar ; the 

 length of ^73 is 0,030. Purchased., 1884. 



M. 1785. Two lower cheek-teeth; from Bach. Purchased, 1884. 



M. 1461. A third right lower true molar, provisionally referred to

 Caylux (Tarn-et-Garonne), Prance. Purchased, 1884. 



27766. Part of the right ramus of a mandible, provisionally referred 

 to this species ; from the Lower Miocene of Perrier (Puy- 

 de-D6me), France. This specimen shows the three true 

 molars, the anterior crescent of m. 1 being wanting. It is

Rhinoceros occidentalis, Leidy *. 

 Syn. Aceratherium occidentale. Cope 2 . 



This is a comparatively small species, in which the upper true 

 molars have a strong " antecrochet,'* but no " crochet," while 

 the premolars have a well-developed cingulum, of which there 

 is a trace in the true molars. A cranium is figured by Leidy 

 in the Journ. Ac. Nat. Sci. Philad. ser. 2, vol. vii. pi. xxii. 

 (1869). 



Hab. North America. 



29677. Part of the right maxilla, containing the last four cheek- 

 teeth, in a broken condition ; from the Miocene of Nebraska, 

 U.S.A. The teeth are somewhat smaller than those of 

 the cranium figured by Leidy, but otherwise agree.
