The diameters of the molar teeth are taken so as to include the convexity of 



the sides of the crown. 



Bones of the remainder of the skeleton do not indicate as many individuals as 

 the cranial fragments. Those that are indicated are of different dimensions, some 



equalling, others exceeding the corresponding parts of the grizzly bear. The distal 

 portion of a humerus is of the smaller dimensions, while an astragalus, and some 

 metapodials and phalanges indicate gigantic animals. I give a few measurements.
