A skeleton (712 e) of a Pig, received from the Zoological Society 

 under the name of the Javan Pig {Sus verrucosus), seems to belong- 

 to this sjjecies ; but the concavity in front of the eye is scarcely as 

 deep as usual, perhaps arising from its having been long in confine- 

 ment. 



No 1362 c. Skull of an adult male of Sus vittatus from Amboyna, 

 from Mr. Wallace. Nose rather wide before in front of the orbit, 

 and then with parallel sides ; concavity in front of orbit deep and 

 large, separated from the front of the orbit by a narrow raised con- 

 vex edge. Canines thick; crest at base strong. Length 12|, height 

 at occiput 8 inches. The processes of the sheaths of the upper ca- 

 nines are curved back, sharp-edged above, and straight and truncated 

 at the end. 



No. 1362 d. SkuU of adult, very like 1362 c, also from Amboyna, 

 from Mr. Wallace's collection. Length 12, height 8| inches. The 

 concavity in the front of the orbit is deeper and the ridge separating 

 it from the cavity of the orbit more marked. The process of the 

 sheath of the upper canine is similar, but rather larger, the upper 

 edge is sharp-edged at the end, longer, more ovate, convex, and 

 rugose. 



No. 1362 li. Skull of an old male from Batchian, from Mr. Wal- 

 lace's collection. Length 13, height at occiput 8} inches. Very 

 like 1362 d from Amboyna ; but the forehead is narrower and flatter, 

 and the nose broader, being rather wider in front over the canines 

 than in fi'ont of orbits ; the concavity in front of the orbit similar 

 and deep, and with well-marked outer orbital ridges. The process 

 of the sheath of the upper canine is shorter, tliicker, blunter, with 

 a rounded end, and without any distinctly sharp-crested front edge. 



No 1362 b. SkuU of an adult, with well-worn grinders, a " Wild 

 Boar fi-om Java," from Mr. Wallace's collection. Length 13^, 

 height 8| inches. Very similar to S. vittatus from Amboyna 

 (1362 c and 1362 d) ; but the nose of the skull is rather broader, 

 especially in front, and the sheath of the upper canine is only fur- 

 nished with a well-marked ridge behind. The concavity on the 

 cheeks is very deep and wide in front, but not so well mai-ked and 

 deep on the hinder edge, where it is separated from the orbit by a 

 wide flattish space. 



No. 1362/. Skull of an animal developing the hinder molar ; the 

 concavity in front of the orbit not so deep and well marked, as usual 

 behind ; zygomatic arch and lower jaw swoUen on the sides ; the 

 ridge of the sheath of the canine slight and sharp-edged. Trom the 

 Utrecht Museum ; probably from Java or some of the Dutch colonies. 

 Length 13, height 7 inches.
