X^-^- muscle attachment so well developed as in Eporeodon. The condyles are ridge shaped, but in Sus they are rounded and knob-like. The ascending ramus is broader anteroposteriorly than in Sus. The slope of the symphysis is nearly the same in both. The inferior canine (Pi) is vertically triangular and not at all recurved, while that of Sus is strongly recurved back- ward. The incisors are very much heavier and very much more laterally placed than in Eporeodon. Their direction is nearly 45 degrees from the alveolus, but those of Eporeodon are slightly more nearly vertical. There is a short diastema between the true canine and the first premolar (caniniform premolar) and none between that and P2, but a relatively large one be- tween the true canine and Pi in Sus. The last three premolars are crowded so that their long diameters are oblique to the line of the mandible.
