M. Milne-Edwards doubts if this animal is the DuvauceUii of 

 Cuvier, from three horns sent by Duvaucel. If this is correct, it 

 should be called Rucervus elaplioides. 



2. Rucervus cambojensis. B.M. 



Beam of horn very short, not larger than the main beam of each 

 fork.

On re-examination I am inclined to believe that the forehead and 

 liorns brought by M. Mouhot from Cambojia, and named Cervulus 

 cambojensis, are only irregularly developed horns of this species. 

 The horns are short, thick, nearly straight, with a short, thick, 

 recurved branch on the outer part of the front side near the base ; 

 and on one of them there is a somewhat similar callosity on the 

 hinder side at the same level. 



** The upper part of the antleis simjily forked. Tail bushy at the end. 



6. RUSA. 



Tail moderate, broad, depressed, rounded at the end. Antlers 

 placed on a moderately long peduncle, with an anterior frontal snag 

 close on the crown, and simply forked at the tip. Fur formed of 

 hard, rigid, very thick hair, not or only obscurely spotted. Crumen 

 very large. Males generally with elongated haii" on the neck.
