Drawings 



All specimens borrowed could be documented by drawings of the skull in dorsal, lateral 



and basal view. Using a stereo microscope witli a drawing projector, tlie mandibles were 



drawn in top view and in lateral view. Hie scale is always 10 nmi. 



Hie material examined during museum stays was photographed by means of a macro lens 



(135 mm) on fine-grain black and white negative film; the drawmgs were done after these 



pictures. 



Measurements 



Tlie preserved skuUs were measured by means of a slide caliper (0.02 mm). Any skull 

 measure was taken tliree times and the mean value was recorded on prepared record 

 forms. Tlie measures are given in fig. 2. A table with ah values measured can be ordered 

 from the author.
