Scale line equals 1 mm. The above data suggest that the fauna at LACM 1066 is probably late Pleis- tocene. Dental Terminology The tooth terminology used throughout this study follows, with slight modifi- cation, Casier (1961), Compagno (1970), and Ledoux (1970) and is illustrated in Figure 1. The tooth row-group terminology, as it is applied to the lower dental series in Scymnodon ringens, is shown in Figure 2. Recent Comparative Specimens A tissue-free tooth set of the lower right functional and first replacement series in Scymnodon ringens was prepared from LACM Section of Ichthyology, spec- imen No. 37974-1; a 1000 mm (total length) female, collected at a depth of 750-800 meters at 56°25'N, 9°15'W, in the North Atlantic, north of Scotland, by 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 Southern California Academy of Sciences.
