DESCRIPTION OF PLATE XXVIII. 



Crocodilus bombifkons and Leptorhynchus Gangeticus. 



The figures in this Plate have been drawn b}- Mr. Dinkel 

 from the original specimens in the British Museum, which 

 have been identified with outline tracings named bj Dr. 

 Falconer. 



Fig. 1, Lateral view of fossil skull and lower jaw of Crocodilus bombi- 



frons, a species still existing in India. The drawing is one-fiftli 



of the natural size. The number of the specimen in the British 



Museum Catalogue is 39,798. (See page 355, and vol. ii. 



page 485.) 



Figs. 2 and 3. Another skull of Crocodilus homhifrons, showing upper 

 and palatal surfaces, and drawn one-fifth of the natural size. 

 The number of this specimen in the British Museum Catalogue 

 is 39,795. 



These two specimens of C. bombifrons belong to the same species as 

 that identified in Capt. Cautley's memoir as C. biporcatus, but are more 

 perfect than the specimens which he described, but which are also in 

 the British Museum. (See page 344, note.) 



Figs. 4 and 5. Leptorhynchus Gangeticus. Upper and under surfaces 

 of cranium, drawn one-sixth of the natural size. The number 

 of the specimen in the British Museum Catalogue is 39,809. 

 The species is the same as that described in Capt. Cautley's 

 paper as Croc, loigirostris, and is the existing GaviSl of the 

 Ganges ; and the specimen closely resembles, but is more perfect 

 than, that figured by Cajit. Cautley in the ' Asiatic Researches,' 

 vol. xix., Plate III., figs. 3 and 5, the Catalogue number of which 

 iu the British INIuseum is 40,206.
