198 FAMILY OTARIID^. 



and A. '^ (lUliesjyii ") are added to tliose recognized hj this author 

 in 1850. 



The same year (186G), Peters* recognized fourteen species 

 (three of them were treated as doubtful), as follows: 1. Otaria 

 juhata; "'?2. Otaria leonina''^ { 0. jubata); 3. Otaria godefroyi {a. 

 sp, = 0. juhata); 4. '^ f Otaria hyronia^^ {=Phoca hyronia, Blain- 

 Yi]le, = 0. juhata) ; 5. Otaria iMolieri ; 6. Otaria ulloaf {= 0. 

 ulloce, vonTschudi, = 0. juhata, iem.); 7. Otaria jmsilla (=Petit 

 Phoque, Butibn, Phocapusilla, Schreber, Otaria delalandi,F. Cn- 

 vier, etc.); 8. Otaria emerea ( = "0. cinerea, Peron and Lesueur, 

 Quoy and Gaimard"; '' 0. stelleri, Schlegel," in part,etc.) ; ?9. 

 Otaria falMandica (= Arctoceplialus faR-IandicUs, auct.) ; 10. 

 Otaria nrsina { = Callor]iiniis ursinus); 11. Otaria stelleri [Eume- 

 topias steUeri) ; 12. Otaria gillespi {=ZalopJms caUfornianus) ; 13. 

 Otaria lobata {= Arctocephalus lohatus, Gray, 1828, Otaria aus- 

 tralis, Quoy and Gaimard, 1830, 0. steUeri, " Schlegel," in 

 part, = Zalophus lohatus) ; 14. Otaria 2^limpp'ii (n- sp. = Arcto- 

 cephalus falMaiidicus, auct.). Six months later, on again review- 

 ing the grouj),t the same writer reduced the number of species 

 to ten. In this paper he referred the 0. hyronia, 0. leonina, and 

 0. godeffroyi of his former i)aper to 0. juhata, and his O.pliiUppii 

 to 0. falklandica. 0. ulloce is still retained as a valid species, 

 and '' Otaria stelleri, Schlegel," is determined to be the 0. 

 gillespi, M'Bain. 



In 1868 1 Dr. Gray described as a new species ArctocepJialus 

 nivosus {= A. antarcticus, s. pusillus) fi?om the Cape of Good 

 Hope, and Professor Turner added, as a new species, Arcto- 

 cephalus schisthyperoes (later corrected to scMstuiJcriis by Giin- 

 ther), from Desolation Island, considered later by Gray,|| after 

 an examination of the type, to be referable to his A. delalandi 

 (therefore = A. antarcticus). M'Bain, the same year,^ described 

 an imperfect skull of what he called "0. ullowf'^ {= Otaria 

 juhata, fern.), adding that in case it proved to be a new species it 

 might be called " 0. graii." 



In 1870 ** I was able to recognize only six species as weU 

 estabhshed, but gave two more as probably valid, the latter
