Other Eaces Described. 



a. — O. poli aclametzi, Koioarzig, Zooh Anz, vol. xli, p. 442, 1913. 



Eepreseuted by an argali from the Lob Nor district, 

 characterised by the horns in their first half-turn lying* 

 parallel to the long axis of the skull, and having their tips 

 so much bent backwards that when the skull is placed 

 horizontally they reach beyond its lower plane. 



h. — Ovis middendorfi, Kowarzig, Zool, Anz. vol. xli, p. 443, 1913. 



Proposed for a sheep from the Ud A^ alley, on the south- 

 west side of the Sea of Ochotsk, identified by Middendorff 

 with 0. canadensis nivicola, but which, accordino: to the 

 author, has nothing to do with that species and race. So far 

 as the original mention is concerned, the designation is a 

 nomen nudum. 



VII. OVIS CANADENSIS (p. 109). 

 0.— Ovis canadensis borealis (p. 121). 



Ovis borealis lydekkeii, Kowarzig, Zool. Anz. vol. xli, p. 443, 1913. 



Typified by No. 2. 4. 26. 2, which is regarded by 

 Kowarzig as distinct from the true horealis, although on 

 what grounds is not stated in the original notice. 



Genus CAPRA (p. 129). 



In The Field for 1913 (vol. cxxii, p. 1251*) the writer has 

 given reasons for regarding the horns of all wild goats except 

 the markhor as homonymous. This will justify the adoption, 

 at least in a subgeneric sense, of Trouessart's Orth^goceros.]

 Cook's The Carver of Life, London, 1914, p. 211.
