Upper molars. — In figures 1 and 2 of plate XYI of the present memoir are 
represented specimens of the third and fourth upper premolars 1 and of the three 
true molars of a fossil giraffe, collected by Mr. Theobald in the Siwaliks of the 
Punjab. These teeth are contained in two fragments of the maxilla of opposite sides, 
and belonged to the same individual. It is probable that the whole skull was im- 
bedded in the sandstone from which the teeth were obtained, and was broken up by 
the villagers who brought the teeth to Mr. Theobald, since the mandible represented 
in figure 5 of the same plate almost certainly belonged to the same animal, though 
obtained a year later. The upper molars, are those already described in the notice in 
the eleventh volume of the “ Records ” 2 , the greater part of which is repeated here. 
The two last teeth in figure 2 (m. 2, m. 3) agree precisely (allowing for the 
difference in wear) with the two corresponding teeth figured by Messrs. Ealconer and 
Cautley under the name of Camelopardalis affinis 3 , and undoubtedly belong to the 
same species. As we shall show subsequently that that species cannot be separated 
from Camelopardalis sivalensis (the first-named species), we refer the original speci- 
mens, and others like them, to the latter species. The general form of the figured 
teeth is so close to that of the teeth of the living species that, as stated by Messrs. 
Ealconer and Cautley, it requires the aid of the callipers to distinguish them. In the 
following table the dimensions of Mr. Theobald’s specimens are given in the first 
column, while in the second are given those of the specimens described in Messrs. 
Ealconer and Cautley’ s memoir 4 , and in tbe third column are given the correspond- 
ing dimensions of the molars of an adult skull of Camelopardalis Qiraff'a, of unknown 
sex, in the collection of the Indian Museum. The dimensions given in the fourth 
column are those given by Messrs. Ealconer and Cautley, taken from an adult 
female skull of the same species in the Museum of the Royal College of Surgeons.

the first tooth is never developed.
