163 



a German specialist who had divided the African buffalo 

 into fifteen or twenty different species, based upon differ- 

 ences in various pairs of horns. The worth of such fine 



Cuninghame, Kermit, Mr. Roosevelt, Heller, and Heatley at buffalo camp 



distinctions, when made on insufficient data, can be gath- 

 ered from the fact that on the principles of specific divi- 

 sion adopted in the pamphlet in question, the three bulls we 

 had shot would have represented certainly two and possi- 

 bly three different species.
