Show 64 MR. ST. GEOEGE MIVART ON HEMICENTETES. [Jail. 1 7, the second ; and it resembles the latter tooth in size and shape, that the anterior of the three cusps is larger. The three true molars are very similar in size and shape to the third premolar, except that a cusp projects internally from the inner side of the posterior part of each. They resemble the homologous teeth of Centetes, squeezed together (as it were) from within outwards, while the posterior prism of each nearly aborts-thus approximating to Chrysochloris. Scapula, clavicle, humerus, radius, and ulna; once and a half the size of nature. Carpus, twice the size of nature. Fig. 8. Vertebrae, once and a half the size of nature. |
