9. MARSUPIALIA. 
W inge, E. Mus. Lund, ii, art. 2. The author deals primarily with the 
living and fossil opossums of the district of Lagoa Santa ; but he 
also makes some observations on the affinities of the family in 
general, and defines the subgeneric groups he would adopt. Skulls 
and limb-bones are described and figured ; and certain emendations 
made on the Recorder’s determinations of some of the fossil forms. 
For Jacobson’s organ in Phascolomys and Didelphys, see ROSE, supra , 
p. 18 ; and for dentition of Macropodida , Woodward, supra, p. 22. 
The presence of rudimental milk-teeth in Phascolomys is recorded 
by Rose, SB. Ac. Berlin, 1893, pp. 749-755. See also Osborn, 
supra, p. 17, as to dentition both of recent forms and of those 
from the Laramie.
