The large size of the head, and especially the greatly swollen 

 forehead, makes the skull of this animal look very different 

 to the comparatively flattened skull of A. fuJgens. But 

 although at least two are old, yet none of our Himalayan 

 skulls are quite so old as the Sze-chuen one ; and on this 

 account I do not venture to distinguish Mr. Styan's animal 

 as a separate species, on the chance tliat intergradations may 

 occur, and older specimens of the Himalayan Panda show 

 some tendency to the swollen character of the skull of 

 Styani.

 with lohite spotsf 



This example is considerably larger than the peculiarly- 

 pigmented or piebald forms described in the last note. It 

 measures 17 inches in length and fully 9 inches in breadth. 

 The ground-colour of the dorsum and the white under (left) 

 surface are normal, and the external structure presents no 

 peculiarity. Instead of the ordinary red spots on the dorsum,
