I have been able to identify this species by means of i^hotographs of Professor Gill's typical specimen, which were kindly sent me by Professor Baird. It differs, however, in some particulars from those I have examined. The skull is a little larger and longer, the pterygoids are less pointed, the temporal fossa smaller, and the edges of the triangle are higher and more extended CATALOGUE OF THE CETACEA.
