No note was taken of the height of the last ridge. The specimen 

 is without fangs, and, although distinctly of E. meridionalis, the 

 nutober of ridges to the entire crown is not shown. This also be- 

 longed to Mr, S. Woodward, and is now in the Norwich Museum. 

 It has all the mineral appearance of the Mundesley and Happis- 

 burgh beds. 



Figs. 8 and 8 a represent the anterior portion of. a lower right 

 molar, comprising the remains of six well-worn ridges. It is cited 

 to show the angular flexures that are sometimes seen when the 

 plates are groimd down low. The side view, fig. 8 a, exhibits the 

 thickness of the enamel. This specimen is too mutilated to fix its 

 serial position with confidence. It is heavy and dark from iron- 

 impregnation, and corresponds with the fragments from Mundesley 

 and Happisburgh. 



Figs. 9 and 9 a represent the posterior two-thirds of the crown 

 of a lower molar of the right side. It is inferred to be a penulti-- 

 mate, but without certainty, and may be the last true molar. The 

 crown shows six well-worn disks and a posterior talon ; there are 

 no fangs ; the enamel is very thick, with large rings to the digita- 

 tions ; the disks are somewhat angularly expanded, and separated 

 by wide interspaces of cement. This is best shown by the side view, 

 fig. 9 a. From being worn low down, the plates exhibit a greater 

 tendency to crimpiag than is usual. The specimen is dark and 

 heavy, and bears fresh patches of marine incrustation. It is one of 

 Woodward's specimens, probably from the '^ Oyster-bed " (Norwich 

 Museum),

This also is a characteristic fragment of E. meridionalis. 



Figs. 10 and 10 a are of a specimen in Dr. Buckland's collection 

 from the Yal d' Arno. It is noticed to demonstrate how exactly the 

 English specimens agree with the Italian form, as may be seen by 

 comparing figs, 8 and 9 with fig. 10, 



Figs. 11 and 11 a represent the posterior portion of a last lower 

 molar of the right side, including six disks of wear and the back 

 talon. The disks are broad, the interspaces of cement the same, 

 and the enamel plates are very thick, with deep external vertical 

 channelling, but without crimping. The specimen is black, heavy, 

 and bears patches of marine incrustation, indicative of its having 

 been procured from the " Oyster-bed." From W^oodward's collec- 

 tion (Norwich Museum),
