* Occiiiital distortion. 



Norma facialis. — The face was injured in several skulls. Where the anterior nares 

 were preserved they were bounded laterally by a sharp crista prsenasalis, which became 

 less distinct as it ended in the incisive region ; immediately behind its lateral part 

 was a narrow, shallow^ groove, a fossa prsenasalis, the margo infranasalis of which was 

 faint, but could be traced across the nasal floor to the feeble maxillo-nasal spine. The 

 incisive region was not separated from the nasal floor by a sharp ridge. The nasal 

 index of one specimen, 47"9, was almost mesorhine, that of the other, 53"1, was faintly
