The sknll of a young-adult female from San Jose i\Iission (No. 1143 Yale 
iMuseum) appears to he a not (piite grown female of Ursiis colums. The 
last upper molar is short and suhtriangular, the heel emarginate on 
outer side.

Adntt mate I'ejon (Irizztij compared icilh th'sus henshawi {the type) from

Females (adult and old) of tlu' Tejon (irizzly are more easily distin¬ 
guished than males from their nearest relative, Ursus californicus. The 
sknll of the female is niuch more like the normal female Grizzly type, 
not n'somhling the males as does the female of catifornicus. Compared 
with female californicus: skull decidedly smaller; frontal shield hehind 
plane of postorhital processes more elevated and convex—not de[)ressed 
and c.oncave as in californicus ; point of shield longer and broader ; orbital 
rims more swollen ; sagittal crest shorter and lower ; palate at least 10 mm. 
shorter; occipito-sphenoid about 10 mm. shorter; lower jaw smaller and 
lighter; last tipper molar decidedly smaller. Normal m ^ subrectangular
