Plate VI., Fig. 5. 



Prof. Flower (Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc, Vol. XXX., p. 1, 1874) 

 identified a portion of a skull from the Bed Crag (Nodule-bed) 

 of Foxhall, in the collection of the Kev. H. Canham, as 

 that of a Sirenian, and described it as a new species of Halitherium 

 to which he gave the name of H. Canhami. The specimen is 

 now in the Ipswich Museum, but casts of it are to be seen in 

 the British Museum and the Museum of Practical Geology. In 

 the latter museum there are two or three pieces of ribs from the 

 Eed Crag Nodule-bed of Felixstow, and in the York Museum 

 a cheek tooth and a piece of rib from the same bed, which are 

 in all probability referable to this species.
