. Annals of the South African Museum = Annale van die Suid-Afrikaanse Museum. Natural history. 132 ANNALS OF THE SOUTH AFRICAN MUSEUM low with rounded edges extending to the occipital edge. Fairly strong upward inclination of the premaxillary edge. The occiput is high, fairly wide, very deeply concave with a sharp and great posterior sweep of the temporal arches; upper part of the temporal fossa roomy antero-posteriorly; the temporal arch rises above the plane of the intertemporal surface. Palate apparently long and narrow. Basis cranii fairly long. Exoccipitals fused with basioccipital to form a rounded condyle, which is visible beyond the occipital edge in dorsal view. On both sides there are 4 upper and 4 lower incisors, 1 canine and 5? postcanines. In both dentaries there are 4 incisors. In this specimen the quadratojugal is clearly seen as a small bone resting on a ledge above the outer quadratic condyle as in the Pristerognathid Fig. 10.—Anteosaurus acutirostris. Sp. Nov. Holotype. 9329, Kruisvlei, Beaufort West. Dorsal view. Symmetry restored on the basis of the right side, which has suffered a slight side-to-side compression. (x i-).
