The specific title has reference to the conspicuous pineal foramen, placed slightly posterior to the middle of the plate. Two. other prominent fossae, corresponding to those in Dinichthys, occur in line with the pineal on the underside of the preorbitals, and these appear to have been bounded by a low transverse ridge in front. Whether or not vomerine teeth were attached in this vicinity can not at present be deter- mined. Analogy, our only guide, would lead us to expect that they had been. Formation and locality.
