. A description of the fossil fish remains of the Cretaceous, Eocene and Miocene formations of New Jersey. Fishes, Fossil; Paleontology; Geology. 5o CRETACEOUS AND TERTIARY Fig. i".—Lamna elegans Agassiz. i, New Jersey (Cope) ; 2, Monmouth Co. (Knieskern) ; 3, Pemberton (Budd) ; 4-6, Vincentown (Slack) ; 7-12, Vincentown (Bryan). or each side. Root large, outer face concavely depressed, and inner convexly bulging till very pronounced, the convexity usually with more or less complete sulcus. Branches of root usually long, moderately divergent, and angle between branches usually well marked. Lateral teeth with lower crowns, often well deflected, wider angle between branches of root and basal cusps varying till quite broad. Length to 65 mm. This well-marked species is easily distinguished, when not worn, from the other species of the genus by the fine vertical striae in the inner coronal surface. It is quite variable, and in the variation of form closely resembles Lamna Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Fowler, Henry Weed, 1878-1965; Kümmel, Henry Barnard, 1867-.
