Type. Mandibular teeth ; British Museum. 



A species not attaining so large a size as E. sedgwichi, but 

 scarcely differing in the characters of the dentition. The mandi- 

 bular tooth appears to be less robust than that of the latter species, 

 and the tritors are often much narrower. In the palatine tooth 

 also the posterior inner tritor is relatively longer and narrower.
