484 MR. F, E. BEDDARD ON THE STRUCTURE [Apr. 27, 
§ Brain. 
I figure the brain of Galidia elegans in two aspects (text-fig. 128), 
from the dorsal side and a lateral view, which together expose all 
the fissures at any rate of one side. There is, however, no great 
asymmetry in the brain of this Viverrine such as demands the 
additional representation in the figure of the left side. On the 
whole, the brain agrees very closely with that of Galidictis *, which 
IT have already figured and described at some length, comparing it 
with the brain of allied forms. Viewed from above, the general 
outline of the brain does not present any marked differences from 
that of Galidictis, and it is of about the same size.

The crucial sulcus is long, as it is in Galidictis (where I have 
contrasted its length with the shortness of the same fissure in 
Viverra civetta), and is also slightly asymmetrical in relation to 
its fellow. The right-hand suleus is a little in advance of the left. 
It is curious that while the same furrows in Galidictis are also
