Anteriorly are paired pre-jnaxilla bearing teeth, and inaxilhE without teeth. These are supposed to be connected with the labial cartilages of the skate. The first or mandibular arch ossifies into the palatines attached to the ect-ethmoids, the pterygoids with meso- and nietapterygoids, and the guadj'ates which form the upper half (or palato-quadrate chain) and the articular, angular, and dentary forming the lower half or mandibl

An articulation is formed between the articular and the quadrate.

The second or hyoid arch consists in its upper half of a hyo-mandi- bular attached to the otic region, bearing four opercular bones on its posterior border (the pre-opercular, opercular, suh-opercular, and inter- opercidar'), and joined to the quadrate by a small sy?nplectic. Its lower half forms a chain of hyoid bones which carry on their posterior surface seven branchio-stegal rays. The four branchial arches consist of pharyngo-, epi-, cerafo- and hypo-branchials, united below by the basi-branchiah. The pharyngo- branchials fuse to form the superior pharyngeal bones already noticed,.
