SzecliAvan specimens of mimtjac in good coat are considerably 

 brighter than the two individuals of the race scZa/m, and the brighter 

 parts of the head markings are more reddish. From typical reevesii 

 they differ very slightly, the most trustworthy detail apparently be- 

 ing the greater broadness of the black superciliary marks in the 

 males; and the legs also average a bit darker. I can distinguish no 

 skull differences in this material and, in fact, consider the race a 

 poor one; but it may be recognized under this name largely for the 

 sake of expediency. 



MUNTIACUS REEVESII SCLATERI (Swinhoe) 



Cervulus sclateri Swinhoe, Proc. Zool. Soc. London, 1872, p. 814 (Ning:ix), 

 •Chekiang, China). 



/Specimens. — Two from Kiangsu ; Soochow, 1, and Chekiang, 1. 



These specimens are readily separable from true reevesii, as I un- 

 derstand the latter, and the above name is the one that should be 

 used for them. They are without date so the difference in bod}^ color 

 may possiblj^ be seasonal; but at any rate the coat is considerably 

 duller and browner (less red), and the brighter part of the forehead 

 of the male is paler than in any comparable reeves-U. The base of the 

 rostrum is also relatively broader, so that the outline from the pre- 

 maxillae to the zygomatic arches is almost straight, instead of much 

 curved as in every other skull of the genus available.

Specitiiens. — Three from Korea. 



The coloration of the metatarsal glands is not constant in tliis 

 group but varies, perhaps, with age or season.
