These specimens were all carefully prepared by Mr. 

 Richard King, surgeon to the expedition, who deserves 

 the thanks of zoologists for devoting so much time and 

 labour to the promotion of the science. As it would 

 exceed the limits of an Appendix to give a full account, 

 or even a cursory notice, of each species, we shall 

 merely say a few words respecting those which are 

 objects of chase to the Indian hunter, either for food or 

 for the sake of their fur, adding a few brief remarks on 

 the specimens of the other species when they serve for 

 the elucidation of doubtful points of their history.

The specimen resembles the one described in the 

 Fauna-Boreali Americana so much, that we cannot but 

 consider it as the same species, though it has a shorter 

 tail ; and the comparative dimensions of some of the 

 other members also differ a little, as the following Table 

 shows : —
