American "Naturalist, Vol. XV, p. 75, January, 1881; Vol. XVIII, p. 1115, fig. 7, November, 1884. The type specimen of this species was collected by Mr. J. L. Wortman, in 1880, in the Wind River Basin, Wyoming-. This specimen consists of portions of the lower jaws here figured. The geological horizon of this species is not known with certainty, but is apparently in the Bridger beds of the Eocene. The type specimen is preserved in Prof Cope's collection.

Geological Survey, (figure from the present volume, viz:) fig. 48, p. 262, 1884. In this species, the snout tapers in front, where the nasals are divided by an open suture. The nasal protuberances are of moderate size, broadly oval at the base, approximate, and moderately divergent. The nasals project well forward beyond them. The maxillary protuberances are large, and I'ounded, and ai-e connected by a very low transverse.
