Stewart Valley Beds, Nevada. are relatively smaller, more simple, and more widely spaced than in the other forms; , and the heel of M1 are relatively long; and the metaeonid of M, is unusually large and high. The char- acters of the jaw and dentition are in general those of Tephro- cyon, and the species is evidently nearer the group of three including T. rurestris, T. temerarius, and T. hippophagus than to any other known 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 University of California, Berkeley.
