This is the smallest known race of the Korrigum. An 

 examination of .<kins and skulls from several sources has 

 enabled me to establish this species. In the B.M. collection 

 there is a very imperfect series of five specimens ; but a visit 

 to the establishment of Messrs. Eowland Ward, who also 

 kindly pnsented to the Museum a perfect skin and skull, 

 which I have taken as the type, proves its right to recognition 

 as a separate race.
