SPECIAL WORK. 
Mamrn. 47 
t Anthracotherium monsvialense : A. Gaudry, Bull. Soc. geol. (3) xviii, 
pp. 255-257, has a note on the specimen described under this name by 
Zigno [see Zool. Rec. xxvi, Mamm. p. 44], and concludes that the number 
of teeth in the jaw is not due to incorrect restoration. Instead, however, 
of the teeth being reckoned as i. 2, c. 1, p. 4, m. 4, he would class them 
as i. 3, c. 1, p. 4, m. 3; the last premolar (or P milk-molar) being 
molariform.

A critical paper on the classification of the Cetacea, with especial 
reference to the North American fossil forms. The author considers 
that there are two distinct types of Zeuglodonts, for one of which the 
term Doryodon is adopted. The Squalodontidce are divided into 
Squalodon and Trirhizodon , according as to whether all the hinder 
cheek-teeth are two-rooted, or whether some of them have three roots. 
Several fossil American genera are referred to the Platanistidce, among 
which Agabelus is edentulous. The . term ' Anarnacus is adopted in 
place of Hyperoodon. The genus Physeterula , Yan Beneden, from the 
Antwerp Crag, is identified with Cogia. In the Balcenidce, Plesiocetus 
is regarded as distinct from Cetoiherium, on account of its elongated
