39721. Cranium ; from the Pliocene of the Siwalik Hills, India. 
(f1g.) 
This specimen: is the type of the genus and species, and is 
described by Falconer and Cautley in the passage of the 
‘Asiatic Researches’ already cited. It is also described 
by the present writer in the ‘ Paleontologia Indica,’ ser. 10, 
vol. u. p. 220 et seq.; and is figured by Falconer and 
Cautley, of one third the natural size, in figs. 1, la, 10, of 
plate O of the ‘Fauna Antiqua Sivalensis:’ it is also 
figured, of one fourth the natural size, in ‘ Falconer’s 
Paleontological Memoirs’ (pl. xxvi. fig. 1). ‘The dentition 
of one side is figured, of the natural size, in fig. 1 ¢ of the 
first-mentioned plate; and, of three fourths the natural 
size, in fig. 2 of the second plate. The dentition is also 
figured from the lateral and palatal aspects, of one third 
the natural size, in plate cxxxi. of Owen’s ‘ Odontography.’ 
In fig. 5 of plate xxx. of the above-quoted volume of the 
‘ Palecontologia Indica,’ the dentition of the left side (the 
canine having been restored from the opposite side) is 
’ figured from the palatal aspect, of the natural size. 
In this specimen the carnassial (pm 4.) and the two true 
molars are perfect on the left, and but slightly damaged 
on the opposite side. Both canines are present, that of 
the right side being nearly perfect. The alveoli of the 
premolars and incisors are distinct, although the teeth 
themselves have dropped out. The only considerable defi- 
ciencies are in the posterior and lower part of the occiput, 
both zygomatic arches, and in the lower end of the nasals, 
where a fissure extends across the face on both sides 
towards the orbits. Cautley Collection. Presented, 1842. 
39722. Part of the right ramus of the mandible; from the Pliocene 
(fig.) 
of the Siwalik Hills. This specimen is figured by Fal- 
coner and Cautley from the outer side (reversed) in plate O. 
fig. 2 of the ‘ Fauna Antiqua Sivalensis’ (3), and in vol. 1. 
plate xxvi. fig. 3 of ‘ Falconer’s Paleontological Memoirs’ 
(z): itis also figured from the dental aspect in fig. 2 a of 
the former plate (+), and in fig. 4 of the latter (2); and 
in plate cxxxi. figs. 3 and 4 of Owen’s ‘ Odontography ’ (3). 
Lt is described by the present writer in the ‘ Palezontologia 
Indica,’ ser. 10, vol. 1. pp. 223-4. This specimen is broken 
off where the canine emerges from its alveolus; the im- 
bedded portion of that tooth presenting an antero-posterior 
diameter of 0,041, and a transverse of 0,025. The
