28 CATALOGUE OF UNGULATES 



shading into light brown l^elow. Face tawny grey, with a 

 light chestnut patch or band between the muzzle and a line 

 just below the eyes ; a whitish band separating this from the 

 black muzzle. Very old bulls may apparently become 

 darker. Information is lacking with regard to the rump- 

 patch, but it is smaller than in the typical race, and 

 apparently confined to the hind surface of the buttocks and 

 thighs ; while in the bulls of the Manipur form, which may 

 indicate a distinct race, it is stated to be absent. A dusky 

 band on front of fore-le^x above knee. Horns of the fjeneral 

 type of those of the Javan race. Cows are bright reddish 

 chestnut at all ages, with the face lighter than the back, 

 especially on the forehead, round the eyes, and above the 

 muzzle, where, like the under-parts and the lower segment 

 of the legs, it is dirty white. A height of 5 feet 4J inches 

 has been recorded in the cases of bulls. Horns of cows 

 relatively long. 



The Burmese bantin — the tsaine, or h'saine, of the 

 natives — ranges over Burma, Pegu, and Arakan, whence it 

 may extend northwards to the hill-ranges of Chittagong. 

 Bantin also occur in Manipur, and, as mentioned above, may 

 represent a separate race.
