36 SIR VICTOR BROOKE CHAP.

Supplementary Notes on African Buffaloes. P. Z. S., 

 1875, p. 454. 



Since the publication of the paper on " African 

 Buffaloes in the Society's Proceedings for 1873," " a 

 large mass of material," Sir Victor says, " has passed 

 under my observation, enabling me in some degree to 

 confirm, and in some degree to modify, the opinions 

 expressed in that communication." He describes the 

 characters, synonymy, and geographical distribution of 

 the three forms which appear to him to be recognisable 

 viz. Bubalus pumilus, of Western, Western - equa- 

 torial, and the northern parts of Central Africa, B. 

 (zquinoctialis of North-Eastern Africa, and B. coffer of 

 Africa south of the equator and concludes by stating 

 that it is not improbable that they all grade into each 

 other on the confines of their respective geographical 

 ranges.
