(Plate II. fig. 3.) Drawings by Mr. Clift, of some of the most perfect 
of Mr. Gibson’s specimens, have been sent to M. Cuvier, for the new 
edition of his work on fossil animals; copies of these have been made 
for me by the kindness of Miss Morland, and appear in the annexed 
plates, with many other drawings, for which I am indebted to the

have given engravings of some other teeth and a few bones in their

species of animals.

III. IV. V. VI. and XIII.) 
4 Pachydermata.—Elephant, Rhinoceros, Hippopotamus, and 
Horse. (See Plates VII. X. and XIII.) 
4 Ruminantia.—Ox, and three species of Deer. (See Plates 
VIII. IX. and X.) 
4 Rodentia.—Hare, Rabbit, Water-rat, and Mouse. (See Plates 
X. XI. and XIII.) 
5 Birds.—Raven, Pigeon, Lark, Snipe, and a small species of 
Duck, resembling the anas sponsor, or summer duck.

The bottom of the cave, on first removing the mud, was found to
