bone supporting the second dorsal. Purchased , 1883.

-e fins and the scale-ornament. Purchased , 1883, 
P. 4042. Well-preserved small specimen, in counterpart, shown, of 
the natural size, in PI. XI. fig. 2. The head is so much 
crushed that little can be ascertained of its osteology. On 
the half not figured, the frontal bones occur, with a 
squamosal on each side, and a posterior element may be 
supratemporal; fragments of the mandible and some of 
the cheek-plates are shown, and the imperfect operculum 
and suboperculum occur behind, while the principal jugulars 
are displaced downwards. Of the pectoral arch the gently 
curved clavicular element is conspicuous on both sides 
of the fossil. The pectoral fins are almost completely 
destroyed, but one of the pelvic pair is well preserved, 
though the obtuse lobation is indistinct; the two dorsals 
and the anal are observed as described in the specific 
diagnosis; and the greater portion of the lower lobe of 
the caudal fin is shown, while its upper lobe is represented 
only by a few fragmentary rays. The relatively large size 
of the scales is evident, but few exhibit the exposed sur¬ 
face with its sculpturing. Purchased , 1883.
