A hollow conical tooth from the Lower Carboniferous Limestone 

 of Armagh, compared with BMzodus and Dendrodus by M'Coy, is 

 named Colonodus longidens, P. M'Coy, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist. [2] 

 vol. ii. (1848), p. 5. The original specimen is in the Museum of 

 the Geological Society, and is very doubtfully determined (J. W. 

 Davis, Trans. Roy. Dublin Soc. [2] vol. i. 1883, p. 523, pi. lxiii. 

 fig. 6). 



Another tooth from the Productus-Limestone of the Salt Range, 

 India, perhaps referable to the Rhizodontidae, is named Sigmodus 

 dubius, W. Waagen, Palseont. Ind. [13] vol. i. (1879), p. 10, pi. i. 

 fig. 7.
