The author concludes that the ancestry of the Urodele Batrachians 
must be sought among the Crossopterygian forms now represented only 
by Polypterus and Calamoichthys ; and that the Holocephali are DipDoan 
forms which have lost their dermal bones, and retrograded in some respects 
towards the Selachian type.
