Both figures are one-eighth natural sue. The position of this suture, and also that uniting the frontals with the nasals, and the latter with their adjoining bones, is well shown in figure 8, page 15, which represents the young specimen (number 1601) above referred to. In Dinoceras mirabile (number 1036), the frontals are comparatively thin in front where they join the nasals. Over the orbits, they become 3.
