380 CRANIA FROM THE MOUNDS OF FLORIDA. 



bolic left, parabolic, right; alveolar process 13 mm. high; choanse with produced 

 basal angle. — Foramen lacerum medium open. Spinous process not overlapping 

 sphenoido-tympanic fissure. — Petrosa inflated. — Epipteric bone on right side ; a 

 Wormian bone on right side in lambdoidal suture near asterion and at mid-lambda. 

 — Temporal ridge without interruption at stephanion, the lambdoidal suture serrate 

 to asterion. Upper molars 4-3-0. — Sconce 158 mm. — Malar bone with marginal 

 process almost nil. Suture-trace evident, 5 mm. long. 



Lower Jaw. Third molar almost concealed by the coronoid process ; mental fora- 

 men opposite second premolar ; condyloid process angulated, the facets about equal, 

 the internal inclined downward ; angle deflected ; genio-glossus spine double ; genio- 

 hyoid crest distinct. — Skull rests on opisthion ; occipital curves continuous, but inter- 

 ruption at lambda between the occipital and the parietal back of the intertubera, 

 thus constituting a " cut-off." — Entire skull remarkably pasdomorphic. 



707 S , aged 30, — archencephalic, slightly deformed, — the left parietal bone 

 being flattened. 



Glabella small, supra-orbital ridge slight ; outer part of orbital arch inclined, 40 

 mm. — Nasal bones convex ; frontal portion 3 mm.; ascending process of maxilla nearly 

 on plane of inner wall of orbit. Nasal vestibule mutilated ; incisor eminence, alve- 

 olar line marked, prenasal fossa 5 mm. Alveolus small, 12 mm. — Hard palate left 

 side hyperbolic, right side parabolic; alveolar height 17 mm.; choanaB with base 

 wider than apex. — Spinous process not overlapping sphenoido-tympanic fissure. 

 Foramen lacerum medium open, medianly and laterally ; left petrosa inflated. — 

 Temporal ridge with interruption at stephanion of 21 mm. ; lambdoidal suture 

 harmonic near asterion. — Left side of head the smaller. — Epipteric bone present on 

 left side. — Upper molars 4-3J-3. — The sconce 94 mm. wide, coarsely porose on 

 either side near the temporal ridge. — Malar bone with large marginal process ; not 

 in spheno-maxillary fissure. 



Lower Jaw. Third molar not concealed by the coronoid process. — Molars 

 l°-\—\; genio-glossus spine double; genio-hyoid crest nil ; mental tubercles large. — 

 Mental foramen on line with second premolar on right side, between premolars on 

 left. — Skull rests on conceptacula, thus the curve from opisthion to inion is distinct. 

 The curve from the inion to the bregma uninterrupted at the lambda or obelion.
