Fig. JSote on the Dentition o/Hemimastodon crepusculi (Pilg.). Pilgrim * has described some Proboscidian teeth from this locality as belonging to Hemimastodon, a new genus inter- mediate between the genera Palaomastodon and Tetrabelodon. In the present collection are two palates and corresponding- portions of lower jaws of young adult individuals, which, being fairly complete except for the symphysial region throw some additional light on the dentition of this o-enus. The palates show two three-ridged teeth—the first and second molars—with remains of two smaller two-ridged teeth in front, which apparently represent the third and fourth premolars.
