MYLIOBATIDJE. 
151 
In the Collection there are also similar teeth and fragments from 
Bnrham (41697), Greenhithe (P. 5452), Bromley (41698), and 
Dover (35871, 35875, 47285) in Kent, besides from localities in 
Sussex (28389), and from Warminster, Wilts (46394). 
The following vertebrae are of the same type as those associated 
with the group of teeth of Ptychodus decurrens referred to above 
(no. 39436). As already remarked, a similar vertebra has been 
described in detail by C. Hasse, under the name of Selache dav- 
{[eyi. The radiating lamellae are merely represented by faint lines 
upon the “ central double-cone,” while the concentric lamella} aie 
numerous and well developed; these vertebra} thus appear to the 
present writer to be truly “ tectospondylic,” and quite comparable 
with those of Myliobatis, only differing from the latter in the 
presence of small uncalcified areas having the form of an X when 
viewed in transverse section.
