trace of m.3; from the Upper Eocene of Bach. This 
specimen appears to agree very closely with the one figured 
by Filhol in the Ann. Soc. Sci. Phys. Nat. Toulouse, 1882, 
pl. vi. figs. 3, 4. Purchased, 1884. 
Part of the right ramus of the mandible, containing the 
two last premolars, the carnassial, and m. 2, with no trace 
of m.3; from the Upper Eocene of Caylux (Tarn-et- 
Garonne), France. This specimen agrees precisely with 
the last. Purchased, 1884. 
Part of the left ramus of the mandible, containing the 
four premolars; from the Upper Eocene of Caylux. In 
this and the next specimen it is impossible to say whether 
m. 3 was present. Purchased, 1884, 
Part of the left ramus of the mandibie, containing the 
last three premolars and the carnassial; from the Upper 
Kocene of Caylux. Purchased, 1884. 
Cynodictis, sp. 
Hab. France. 
M. 1659. 
Fragment of the right ramus of the mandible, of smaller 
size than any of those referred to the last species, but 
agreeing in general characters, and wanting m. 3; from 
the Upper Eocene of Bach, near Lalbenque (Lot), France. 
It is not improbable that this specimen may belong to a 
small race of C. leptorhyncha. Purchased, 1884. 
Cynodictis (?), sp. 
Hab. France. 
M. 1354. 
Part of the left ramus of the mandible, showing the 
second and fourth premolars, and the three true molars, 
from the Upper Eocene of Caylux (Tarn-et-Garonne), 
France. This specimen appears to come nearest in form 
to Cynodictis leptorhyncha; but is readily distinguished 
by its much shorter form, and the lower crown of the 
carnassial, which is lower than that of pm. 4. The inner 
cusp of m. 1 1s strongly developed and very distinct, and 
the talon short and wide; there is acusp on the posterior | 
border of pm.4. These characters distinguish the speci- 
men from Cynodon. In Amphicynodon, Filhol', there is 
a similar cusp to pm. 4, but the ascending ramus of the
