INTESTINAL CANAL OF THE MOOSE. 
Not being able to find in any work accessible to me the length 
of the Intestinal Canal of the Moose (Cervus alces) ; the follow- 
ing note may be worth recording. 
On the 8th November, 1880, I measured the intestinal canal 
of a full grown cow Moose which had been just killed and found 
it to be 211 feet 2 inches in length. The ccecum was 2 feet long 
and about 33 inches in diameter, its outlet narrow, below it the 
intestine for 14 inches was quite large, but the succeeding 60 ft. 
was of the normal size ; the “ fat gut” or that part of the in- 
testine where the foeces are separated into pellets, at this season, 
of the year, to the anus measured 10 feet 6 inches. 
The length of the intestinal canal of a full grown ox is usu- 
ally given as about 150 feet.

Length, 1-7 and1-6 inch. 
In his papers on the Geology of Arisaig, Nova Scotia, read 
before the Geol. Soe. Lond. in 1864 and 1870, the Rev. Prof. D. 
Honeyman, D.C.L., referred to some Upper-Silurian Entomos- 
traca from that district. At p. 344, Q.J.G.S. vol. xx. they were 
quoted as Beyrichia pustulosa, Hall; B. equilatera, Hall; Beyrichia 
2 spp., and Leperditia sinuata, Hall. Some specimens from Ari- 
saig left with me by my friend Dr. Honeyman in 1862 for exaini- 
nation were described in the Q. J. G.S. vol. xxvi. p. 492, as being 
Beyrichia tuberculata (Kloeden) ; B. Wilckensiana, Jones; B. Mac- 
coyiana, Jones ; and Primitia concinna (?), Jones. There are
