Bubalus occipitalis and B. acuticornis ; it is manifest, however, that 

 the name Anoa should have been employed, and Probubalus has 

 therefore no right to stand. Hemibos was assigned by Falconer 

 and Cautley to the two species here named B. occipitalis and B. an- 

 tilopinus, and if these (together with B. acuticornis) are regarded as 

 generically distinct from Anoa, that name *nay still be applied to 

 them. Flower's view of the generic unity of Anoa and Bubalus 

 leads, however, to the conclusion that Hemibos should likewise be 

 included in the latter. The upper true molars of B. depressicornis 

 are narrow, and, at least very frequently, lack the inner accessory 

 column. Those of the allied fossil forms are squared, and have a 

 large accessory column.

39715. The cranium, with the horn-cores nearly complete ; from 

 (Fig.) the Pleistocene of the Narbada Valley, India. This spe- 



cimen is figured in ' Falconer's Palaeontological Memoirs,' 

 vol. i. pi. xxii. fig 1, and in (unpublished) plate G. figs. 6, 

 7 of the ' Fauna Antiqua Sivalensis ' (premaxilla3 and 

 horn-core only) ; it is of comparatively small size.

39759. The cranium, imperfect inferiorly, and wanting the whole of 

 (Fig.) the left, and half of the right horn-core ; from the Pleis- 



tocene of the Narbada Valley. This specimen is figured 



in ' Falconer's Pala3ontological Memoirs.' vol. i. pi. xxii. 



fig. 2, and in the ' Fauna Antiqua Sivalensis ' (unpublished) 



plate G. fig. 5.
