SUPPLEMENT TO CKANIA OE RUMINANTS. 
lensis.” Of this species- there was a horned and a hornless form, the latter, in my 
opinion, being probably the female. The horn-cores are sub-cylindrical, and are 
placed very far apart at their bases ; the frontals are large and concave, and there is 
a distinct triangular parietal on either side. The general shape of the skull, when 
viewed from above, is sub-triangular, owing to the great expansion of the temporal 
regions, and consequently quite different from that of other Bovidce. 
Although it is probable that Falconer intended to class this species finally in 
the same genus with the three preceding forms, it appears to me that Professor 
Rutimeyer is quite right in placing it in a distinct genus or sub-genus. 
Species 2 ; Leptobos (Bibos ?) frazeiii. Rut. 
This species is named by Professor Rutimeyer ^ on the evidence of a single 
imperfect hornless cranium of a bovoid ruminant, said to have been obtained by the 
British Museum from a collection made by Captain Frazer in the Narbada 
valley. There are two small crania from the same district in the Indian Museum, 
having a very close resemblance to the cranium figured by Professor Rutimeyer ; 
these crania have small horn- cores. 
Family— 8IV A THEBID^. 
Genus: BRAMATHERIUM, Falconer. 
Species : Beamatherium perimense. Falconer. 
On page 160 of this volume I referred to a cranium of a Sivatheroid, which 
I considered to be that of Bramatlierium perimense. During a recent visit to 
London I found that the specimen in question is now in the collection of the 
Royal College of Surgeons, where it bears the above name. 
Genus: HYDASPITHERIUM, Lyd. 
Species : Hydaspitherium grande, and H. leptognathus, Lyd. 
Since the publication of the “Crania of Ruminants,” some jaws of Eyclaspi- 
therium have been noticed by myself ^ ; one of these, BL. grande, is a stout- jawed, 
and the other, E. leptognathus a slender-jawed form.
