The lower border of the figure is the inner border of the specimen. (From the ' Palasontologia Indica.') 37253. A very similar specimen of a third left upper true molar, in a rather more worn condition; from Perim Island. The valleys are rather less open, and the specimen thereby agrees very closely with No. M. 2817 of M. cautleyi, and thus indicates how the two forms shade into one another1. ? Presented by Walter Ewer, Esq. 7391. Cast of the first two ridges of the third left upper true molar of a large individual. The original was collected by Crawfurd near Yenankhoung ; and is figured by Clift, op. cit. pi. xxxvii. fig. 4, and by Falconer and Cautley, op. cit. pi. xxxi. figs. 5, 5 a. It agrees very closely with the corresponding part of the complete specimen figured by the present writer in the ' Paloeontologia Indica,' ser. 10, vol. i. pi. xxxix. Mantell Collection. Purchased, 1836. M. 3426. Cast of the third left upper true molar. The original was obtained from the Siwaliks of Lehri, Punjab, and is preserved in the Indian Museum (No. A 81): it is but 1 If this specimen really belongs to M. cautleyi it would indicate a small race of fliat form, and thus suggest that some of the "intermediate" molars of the latter may be one step higher in the 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 British M
