Eeferring to the molar teeth of E. ganesa, Falconer writes (of pi. iii, 

 fig. 76, " Fauna Antiqua Sivalensis ") on p. 81, " Pal. Memoirs " : — 

 This figure " shows a vertical section of one of the posterior molars 

 of the lower jaw, which we infer to belong to the same species. 

 A small portion of the anterior end of the crown has been broken 

 ofi"; but the presence of the anterior fang proves that the section 

 includes the whole length of the tooth except the first ridge,
