UPPER FIRST MOLAR. 69 gival enamel ridge. The occlusal margin is surmounted bythe mesio- and disto-lingual cusps (c, d), of which the mesialis usually the larger. In the five-cusped molar the fifth cusp{e) is seen on the mesio-lingual lobe. The mesial and distalmargins are convex, converging rapidly toward the lingualroot. In the few examples in which the lingual groove is notapparent, the lingual surf
