Figs. 6 and 6 a. — Elephas Hysudricus. Lower jaw, left side, witii 

 first true molar which has ten plates, with a small heel and front ridge. 

 It is excessively like Plate VII. fig. 11, which is the penultimate of E. 

 Hysudricus. The specimen is very remarkable as it is believed to have 

 come not fi-om the Sewalik hills, but from the valley of the Nerbudda ; 

 the mineral condition, however, is very hard, unlike the Nerbudda 

 specimens. Presented by C. Frazer, Esq. — B.M.
