Pitymys savii. 

 Enamel pattern. X 5. 



Teeth. — Except for the form of the third upper molar the 

 teeth show no peculiarities. This tooth is so shortened that the 

 length of its crown does not exceed that of second molar. It 

 consists of the usual elements, except that the 

 third inner re-entrant angle is lacking and the 

 rather short terminal portion ends posteriorly 

 in a simple elliptical or slightly ovate loop, the 

 main axis of which is directed backward and 

 a little outward. Outer re-entrant angles well 

 developed, sub-equal, the posterior slightly the 

 larger, the second space usually communicating 

 with posterior loop as in P. multiplex, both 

 isolated or not from large inner triangle. 

 Second upper molar as in P. subterraneus, the 

 third triangle not normally showing any trace 

 of an incipient postero-internal loop.
