  Skeleton. 
  — 
  The 
  skull 
  differs 
  from 
  those 
  of 
  B. 
  vul- 
  

   garis 
  and 
  B. 
  riridis 
  in 
  the 
  form 
  of 
  the 
  fronto-parietals, 
  

   which 
  are 
  only 
  about 
  one-third 
  as 
  broad 
  in 
  front 
  as 
  

   behind, 
  and 
  embrace 
  a 
  wide 
  fontanelle, 
  and 
  in

   zygomatic 
  process 
  of 
  the 
  squamosal 
  being 
  more

   mentary 
  still.
