In one of the innermost chambers the remains were found lying 

 on the projecting shelves of rock, to which they were agglutinated 

 by thick stalactitic incrustation. Still larger quantities are found 

 in the crevices of the rock, whilst the earthy and stalagmitic floor 

 yields an abundance of the speciesnamed, which have been care- 

 fully compared with recent specimens by Messrs. Higgins and 

 Petterd.
