No. 12. Hyaenodon brachyrhynchns, Biainville. 



Head. This Carnivore, which, judging by the character of its carnassial 

 teeth, must have been more ferocious than modern wolves or tigers, is distin- 

 guished by a large facial area, a very marked sagittal crest, and an extreme pro- 

 longation backward of the palatal bones. Each jaw has six small incisors, two 

 large prehensile canines, four compressed, pointed premolars, and three molars. 

 It was discovered in a Lower Miocene marl on the banks of the Tarn, near 

 Robasteins, Southern France, and is preserved in the Museum of Toulouse.
