The length of the space occupied by the last three milk-molars is 0,054, or less than in the correspond- ing specimen of A. secundarium, No. 30607. The first true molar is rather larger than in No. 30708, its length being 0,017, as against 0,015, the latter dimension agree- ing with that of the specimen described by Filhol (op. cit.). Purchased, 1885. 30608. Fragment of the right maxilla of the intermediate variety ; from the Upper Eocene of Debruge. This specimen shows m. 2 and m. 3, in a partially worn condition, which are slightly larger than in No. 30708, and make a nearer approach to the brachydont form. The length of the space occupied by the three true molars in a very similar speci- men from Caylux, in the collection of M. Eilhol, measures 0,056. Bravard Collection. Purchased, 1852. M. 2141. Fragment of the right maxilla of the more brachydont {Fig.) variety, containing the last five cheek-teeth, in a partially worn condition; from the Upper Eocene of Caylux.

Anojplotherium cayluxense.—Part of the right maxilla of the brachydont variety; from the Upper Eocene of Caylux. \. are inclined inwardly to an extreme extent, and the valleys are very shallow. The length of the space occupied by the three true molars is 0,0545. In a very similar speci-.
