Some superior molars in better condition than those last described, ex- 

 hibit the following characters. The intermediate tubercles are fused with 

 the internal, forming a continuous cross crest, but their apices are dis- 

 tinguishable. The external cusps are subcorneal and are well separated. 

 The anterior and posterior cingula are strong , the external is weaker, "and 

 it is wanting from the posterior part of the internal base of the crown. 



A portion of a mandibular ramus, supporting six molars, presents the 

 following characters. The teeth are a little smaller than those of S. 

 tapirinus, the reduction being especially visible in the premolars. The 

 cones Of the crowns are more distinctly separated by notches than in that 

 species; and are quite distinctly conic. The anterior ledge of the true 

 molars is distinct, and there is a median posterior tubercle of the first two, 

 which is represented by the wide crenate -edged heel of the third true 

 molar. The anterior-internal cusps of the last two molars is double or 

 bilobed ; that of the first is last. The anterior cones ot the fourth pre- 

 molar are subequal, and the posterior external cone is elevated. There is 

 a trace of the posterior internal. There is also an anterior ledge. The 

 heel of the third premolar rises to a median blade and posterior cusp. 

 The anterior cusp is elevated and compressed, and supports a small in- 

 ternal lateral cusp. The base of the crown of the third premolar is 

 elongate. All the teeth are rather compressed, and there is only a 

 trace of an external cingulum. 



The ramus is compressed and moderately deep. The dental foramen 

 is large, and its superior border is on a level with the posterior base of the 

 crown of the third true molar. Its inferior base is in line with the base of 

 the crown of the second true molar.
