Didelphia, dī-del′fi-a, n.pl. the marsupialia, or marsupial implacental mammals, one of the three sub-classes of Mammalia.—adjs.

On land, all the indigenous mammals, except bats, belong to the lowest, or implacental division; and the insects are singularly different from those found elsewhere.

Again, the implacental mammals, including the Ornithodelphia and the Marsupials, are admitted to be lower than the placental series.
