Type No. 1553. l,external view ; 2, crown view of teeth. Fig. 66. Foot Bones of Paroligobunis simplicidens. f nat. size. No. 2398. 1, dorsal view of portion of right manus; 2, dorsal view of a first and second phalanx ; 3, tibial view of mesocuneiform ; 4, dorsal view of niesocu- neiform. lunar occupies a liberal portion of the radial angle. The facet for the magnum is continuous from the distal to the proximal face, as in Daphanus and Daphosnodon, but the lunar facet is more distinctly separated from the facet for the magnum than in the latter genera. This is due to a prominent sinuous ridge, which extends from the dorsal border, obliquely upward and backward so that the upper portion of the facet for the magnum is concave supero-inferiorly, while the lower portion is plane antero-posteriorly; the facet for Mc. Ill near the distal face is convex antero-pos- teriorly. The palmar tuberosity is compressed transversely ; it is more prominent than in Meles taxus or the recent otter, but does not extend so high up upon the palmar face as in Daphoenus or Daphosnodon. Distally the bone is much expanded and the articulations for Mc. IV and V are transversely broad and concave in the antero-posterior direction. The trapezoid is quite depressed and triangular in outline. Its proximal face.
