Of the CalamaryV 



of the Animal : In the Aperture of 

 the Throat, near this Infertion, I once 

 found a fmall Quantity of commi- 

 nuted Food, at the fame Time that 

 the Contents of the Stomach fcemed 

 half digefted. 



This Circumftance, together with 

 the Apparatus of the Tongue and 

 Throat, inclines me to think, that 

 this Animal may for the better 

 Comminution of its Food, have an 

 Adtion fomething analogous to the 

 Chewing of the Cud in fome Land- 

 animals. But this is a Surmife, which 

 cannot be depended upon, till more 

 Obfervations concur to confirm it.
