278 LAMINUNGULA. 



This animal was living in the Gardens of the Zoological Society. 

 It changes its colour and becomes greyer in winter, like its female 

 parent. I have seen another example of this Mule, exactly like the 

 one here described.

 Menag. t. 59. f. 1). 



Reddish grey ; head, neck, and front part of the body with very 

 narrow, rather darker streaks.
