A New Bird. 



77 



has lately obtained an exactly similar bird near Shendy, 

 so that the claims of my new species may now be con- 

 sidered as established. 



The hare was a young one and the only specimen we 

 obtained. Mr. de Winton was unable to refer it to any 

 species already described ; but when Mr. R. M. Hawker, 

 in 1901, brought home a mature specimen of the same 

 hare, Mr. de Winton proclaimed it a new species, and 

 named it Lejpus hawheri.
