277—100 INDIAN TERTIARY AND POST-TERTIARY VERTEBRATA. 
6 . 
Hyaena ceocuta (Erxl.). Pleistocene, Europe ; Recent, S. Africa. 
H. capensis, Desm. 
H. maculata, Thunb. {non Odm.) 
H. rufa , Cuv. 
H. spelcea, Gold'f. (? var.) 
Crocota maculata, Kaup. 
C. spelcea, Kaup (? var.) 
Crocuta maculata. Gray. 
Cams crocuta, Erxl. 
In this species m. l has a small talon, and no inner cusp 1 : m. 1 is always minute, and 
may possibly be absent in some instances 2 : it has either one or two fangs. In one 
skull 3 there is on one side the alveolus of a minute m7~2. The hinder lobe of pm. 4 
is larger than the middle ; and there is no distinct anterior talon to pm 3 , which is 
set parallel to the molar alveoli. 
7. Hyaena eximia, 4 Roth, and Wagner. Pikermi beds, Greece and Hungary. 
Hyccna hipparionum , Suess {non Gerv.) in parte. 
In this species mTl has a large talon, but no inner cusp : mj is large : pm. 1 is present ; 
and in one specimen 5 pm. 1 is absent. Em. 3 has no anterior talon ; and in pm. 4 the 
tubercle is very small, apd the third lobe slightly larger than the second. 
8. Hyaena ge^eca 6 (Gaud.) Pikermi beds, Greece. 
Hycenictis grccca. Gaud. Hyaena hipparionum, Suess {non Gerv.) in parte. 
In this species £72 is present, and m. I very large : mTl has a large hind talon, and no 
inner cusp ; the tubercle of pm. 4 is large, as is apparently its third lobe. 
*9. Hyena peeeieei, 7 * Cr. and Job. Up. pliocene, Europe. 
In this form thfe lower carnassial has a large talon, but po inner tubercle : the upper 
true molar is of medium- size. It is probable that it is closely related to, if not 
merely a variety of, H. crocuta? 
*10. Hyena sinensis, 9 Owen. Pliocene or pleistocene, China. 
This species, founded on the evidence of an upper and lower third premolar, is 
not improbably the same as one of the Siwalik species described below. 
11 . 
Hyena steiata, Zimin. Pleistocene, S. Europe; Recent, India, Persia, 
Asia Minor, and N. Africa. 
B. antiquorum, Tern. 
H. fasciata, Thunb. 
H. intermedia , 10 M. de Ser. 
H. inonspessulana, Christ. 
H. orientalis, Tiedm. 
Canis hyaena, Lin. 
In this species the lower carnassial has a 
true molar is large : there are' large fore-a 
pm. 4 i s not larger than the second. 
IT. prisca , n M. de Ser. 
H. veterum, Ksempfer. 
H. virgqta, Gray. 
H. vulgaris, Desm. 
Euhycena striata, Falc. 
large talon and inner cusp, and the upper 
id-aft talons to pm. 3 , and the third lobe of 
The so-called Hycena hipparionum , of Gervais, is the same as Ictitherium ; while 
Hycena neoycea , of Lund, as already mentioned, is a Machcerodus. 
1 Traces of this cusp may occasionally exist, especially in the fossil race. See Busk, ‘ Trans. Zool. Soc.,’ vol. X , p. 77.

“ Cave Hunting,” p. 421) Mr. Dawkins identifies this species with H. striata, and says that Professor Gaudry agrees with 
him. This is probably altogether an error, as Professor Gaudry classes H.perrieri with H. crocuta in his “ Animaux Fossiles et 
Geologie de l’Attique,” p. 103. 9 “ Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc.,’ vol. XXVI., p. 422, pi. XXYIII , figs. 5-7.
