This represents for the former the lowest point in the series, and for the latter a marked gain over preceding figures. In this specimen the total brain constituted per cent of the body-weight, a somewhat greater proportion than is usually reported. Jackson (1909) gives per cent and Vierordt (1893) per cent.
