Teeth of Sompeds.—The dentition of adult Solipeds is composed of from 36 to 40 teeth, thus distributed in each jaw: male, 6 incisors, 2 canines, 12 molars; female, 6 incisors, 12 molars. With regard to the first dentition, it comprises the incisors and three anterior molars only, the canine teeth and the three posterior molars being persistent. The latter teeth—those of tlie second dentition—otler in their develop- ment a common, but very remarkable character, rarely met with in the other animals. They are thrust up from the alveoli during the entire life of the animal, to replace the surfaces worn off by friction ; so that the crown is lormed successively by the various portions of the fang, each of which issues in its turn from the alveolar cavity. Ikcisoks.—These are so named because they serve, particularly in the Fig. THIN SECTION OF THE INNER PORTION OF THE DENTINE AND OF THE SURFACE OF THE PULP OF AN INCISOR TOOTH.

Herbivora, for the incision {incido. to cut) of the food. They are arranged in the segment of a circle, at the extremity of the jaw, and are distinguished by the names of pincer, intermediate or lateral (mitoyennes), and corner teeth. The pincers are the two middle teeth, the intermediates the next, and the cor)iers occupy the extremities of the incisi
