At Fisherton, as in the various pleistocene deposits in other 
parts of England, remains of the Horse and Ox are more abundant 
than those of other animals, and of the former, as proved by the 
testimony of the teeth and bones, there existed at least four species 
or varieties. One, which is chiefly distinguished by the elegant 
and more complex foldings of the enamel in the upper molar teeth, 
must have represented a horse of about 13 or 14 hands high. A 
second species is also mainly distinguished by the conformation of 
its teeth, having the second and third molars in both upper and 
lower jaws, relatively longer in an antero-posterior direction than 
in the existing race of horses. The third species was a large 
Horse, whose bones and teeth are undistinguisliable in an anato¬ 
mical point of view from those of the present day; it not impro¬ 
bably represents the ancestors of the large black wild horse which 
formerly inhabited the extensive forests in the North of Gaul and 
the Netherlands. The fourth and most numerous variety was 
most likely identical with the small Pony which Caesar found 
running wild in many parts of Britain, and whose descendants may 
still be traced in the small rough Ponies of the New Forest, Dart¬ 
moor, and the Welsh Mountains. Some of the smaller teeth may 
possibly belong to a fossil Ass of large size, but the remains as yet 
found are too fragmentary and scattered to enable one to speak 
with any degree of certainty on this point. 
108. Wild boar (Sus scrqfa ?) Portion of os calcis of young 
animal. Deposited by Dr. Blackmore. 
It would be rash to say positively, upon the slender evidence of 
a mere fragment, to what species this fossil should be referred. 
The testimony, however, as far as it goes, is in favour of its 
belonging to an individual not different from the Wild boar which 
was formerly so abundant in our native forests. The comparative
