1870.] BUSK—RHINOCEROS OF ORESTON. 461 
Rhinoceros that tooth is usually much more rectangular than m 2. 
Moreover, on comparison, these teeth will, I think, be found to 
agree more closely with the m 2, of which a figure is given by Mr. 
W. Boyd Dawkins in his paper on the dentition of &. leptorhinus

p- 409), than with the m 1 there represented. The point, however, 
is not one of any great importance. 
Both the teeth, as before remarked, are much worn—the remaining 
height of the crown from the root of the fangs, measured on the 
dorsum, being about 2 inches. In the specimen, no. 878 (Fig. 1), 
which is of the left side, the anterior column is entire, and the 
remains of the very oblique and strongly developed anterior vallum 
or “ guard,” a, can be seen on its anterior face only, not encroaching 
at all upon the internal face. The entrance of the median sinus 
(“ anterior valley”), 6, presents two rather strong conical papille or 
cusps, whose points are slightly worn. The hinder part of the tooth, 
including the greater portion of the posterior column, is broken 
off. The uncus (“crochet”), c, is long, tapering, and curved 
outwards, so that its point is directed towards the anterior outer 
angle of the tooth. So far as it is worn down, and for a short dis- 
tance beyond the worn surface, the uncus is free; but at a greater 
depth it is joined to the anterior column by a narrow isthmus, so
