Thefirst premolar, fig. 29, retains depressionon either side of the basal convexity. 30.—The folds of the upper premolar areshown. The first tooth is actually largerthan the second and exhibits a large fold onthe posterior surface of the crown, back ofthe posterior enamel fold. In the molar series the succession of cusps from the monocuspidate to the poly-cuspidate is clearly shown. It is necessary here to distinguish between the formsof the upper and lower
