488 THE CAT. (chap, xiil The Felidje differ from the ViverridvE, in that in the Felidce : (1) The head is more rounded ; The limbs are generally longer in proportion to the trunk; The claws are generally more completely retractile ; The teeth are more sectorial, and the premolars and tubercular molars are fewer, there being never more than one tubercular molar (an upper one) in any living species; There are no conspicuous scent-glands ; There is no ali-sphenoid canal save in certain extinct genera; The division of the bulla is hardly perceptible exteriorly, while the two chambers into which it is internally divided are not placed one quite behind the other; The carotid foramen is always very small, and the carotid canal indistinct, except in some extinct genera; (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (?)
