interval between tlie base of the horn and the posterior border of orbit. 

 5. Projection of orbits above plane of frontal. From Colonel Colvin's 

 collection. 



iVb. 571. Sos ? — Cranium of a good sized bovine ruminant, in 



the cranial portion nearly entire, together Avith the maxillaries on to 

 the diastema ; nasal bones wanting. Sj^ecimen shows core of left horn 

 a good deal abraded, the right broken off, but the specimen is so 

 much enveloped by matrix as to conceal all the principal parts ; the 

 occipital, parietal, and frontal regions resemble 562, of which this may 

 have been a female. 



No. 572. Bos ? — Fine fragment comprising lower jaw, right 



side, showing the last five molars in situ. The teeth correspond in 

 pattern of crown and accessory pillars with the bovine ruminants ; 

 they are well worn, and the posterior talon of the last is broken off. 

 The compressed accessory pillar between the barrels agree closely with 

 the corresponding teeth of iipper jaw of No. 562, of which species this 



was probably the lower jaw.

No. 576. Bos ? — Fragment of horn-core, presenting the charac-

Subsequently the fi-ontal portion of this specimen was discovered. 

 It is the specimen referred to by Mr. E. Blyth as identical, or nearly so, 

 with Capra Sakeen (BL), vide Journal As. Soc. xi. p. 103. 



No. 578. Bos ? — Fragment of a horn-core presenting nearly a 



square section, with a sharp edge on one side, differing in form from 

 562. 



No. 579. Bos ? — Another portion of horn-core of similar form to 



last, with sharp edge on the concave side, belonging to upper part of 

 core. Section nearly triangular. 



No. 580. Bos : ? — Part of cranium of a middling-sized ruminant.
