Each entry features: Close-up photographs showing the entire skull, teeth and, where available, upper and lower jaws; Pointers to diagnostic features; Average measurement for skull length; Short description highlighting main features of each skull and tooth structure; Dental formula for teeth in upper and lower jaws. A brief introduction, with labelled photographs, covers anatomy as well as dentition; and a quick-reference photographic key to the main animal groups appears on the inside front cover.

Skull, side view, x I. No. 8968. White River Formation, Leptauchenia Beds, Colorado. The special characters of the fllerycocfiwrus skull indicate that the animal had a large proboscis of some kind, of a character quite unparalleled among Ruminants, and not very closely paralleled by the Elephant or Tapir. The evidence is: I.--Great reduction of the nasals, extending the flexible part of the snout. Development of rugosities and ridges for strong muscular attachments immediately in front of the orbits; these give rise to the muscles controlling the motions of the upper lip and the flexible parts of the nose. 2.--Complete coossification of the premaxillae with each other and with the maxillae into a solid mass of bone, pierced by a single anterior palatine foramen. This gives the solid fulcrum necessary to wield a heavy proboscis. 3.--Great broadening of the occipital wings and of the mastoid process of the squamosal, giving power and leverage to the muscles controlling the motion of the skull on the vertebral column. This increased power is obviously necessary in order to control the correspondingly increased length and size of the snout. 4.--Extensive development of cellular bony tissue in front of the broad occiput, serving to brace the flanges of the transverse crests and the...
