The characters displayed by the second cranium lead me to suspect that 

 it is that of a female. A striking feature of the superior dental series is the 

 small size of the canine, which is also not much compressed at the base. 

 As regards the cranium, the sagittal crest is only distinct over the posterior 

 part of the brain case ; the zygomata are not very widely expanded, and 

 the muzzle is narrowed. The external infraorbital foramen is large. 



The mental border of the mandibular ramus is not flared downwards 

 but is continuous, but the external is separated from the anterior and in- 

 ferior faces by strong angles. The diastema is long. Three molars, all 

 large ; the first without anterior basal tubercle, the second with a large one. 

 Sectorial tooth the longest, with well developed simple cutting heel.

This sabre-toothed tiger is larger than the Maclmrodus primmvus, and is 

 more like the animal indicated by a fragment of the lower jaw named by 

 Leicly, M. occidentalis. But the latter agrees with the M. primaivus in the 

 relatively small size of teeth, especially of the first premolar, and in their 

 oblique position, characters not seen in M. bracliyops.

This animal is represented by a portion of the skeleton including a com- 

 plete cranium of one individual with mandibular rami of several others 

 The characters of the species are well marked, and do not approach very 

 nearly to those of any other known to me. 



The skull is considerably larger than that of A. bairdi, and the length
