In the size and form of the horns, fig. 10, fig. ll, this head has some resemblance to the genus Bos, but it differs from the domestic animals of that genus in several important particulars. In those animals the horns are placed at the junction of the facial and occipital surfaces of the cranium (see fig. 12.) at a very considerable distance behind or above the eyes ; whereas in this head (fig. 10, fig. 11.), the horns are at a considerable distance in front of the occipital surface, and not fa...r from the orbits of the eyes. This difference is very apparent when the posterior view of this head, see fig. 11, is compared with fig. 13, the similar view of the head of the common ox. There is less difference between this head, fig. ll, and that of the bison, fig. 13; for the horns of the bison are also at some distance in front of the occipital surface, although not so far as those of this head. By comparing fig. is, fig. 13, and fig. 11, it will appear that the position of the horns of the bison, is midway between that of the horns of the com- mon ox, and of this head ; and that the concavity (h) under and behind the horn, in each of the specimens, is varied in regu- lar gradation.
