24 MAMMALIA. 



M. C. Deperet (Bull. Soc. Geol. France, Ser. 3, Vol. XII., 

 p. 251, Plate viii., f. 2, 1884) described a maxilla, with four 

 cheek teeth in place, from the middle Pliocene of Bourbon, in the 

 Bravard collection, as Gazella borbonica, and with this associated 

 a portion of a skull and horn-core from a similar horizon at 

 Perrier. The last-named specimen is very similar to the English 

 G. anglica, but without a comparison of the specimens this cannot 

 be decided ; and, moreover, it is by no means certain that the skull 

 from Perrier belongs to the species G. borbonica, which was 

 established on the series of teeth from Bourbon. 



SMALL RUMINANT. ? GENUS. 

 PLATE III., FIGS. 7, 8, a, b. 



The Museum of Practical Geology possesses a small metatarsal 

 bone and a first phalanx, presented by Col. Alexander, which is 

 said to be from the Coralline Crag of Gedgrave. In size the 

 bones agree very closely with those of Moschus moschiferus, and 

 the lower end of the metatarsal has a similar expansion, but the 

 upper part does not exactly agree, being less flattened from side 

 to side. 



The surface of these bones is much denuded, and they are very 

 friable, like certain other bones from the Coralline Crag, and are 

 not phosphatised, like specimens from the Nodule-bed below the 

 Red and Coralline Crags. 



Mr. E. Cavell, of Saxmundham, has a similar first phalanx from 

 the Norwich Crag of Easton Bavent. 



Genus CERVULUS, Blainville. 



CERVULUS (CERVUS) DICRANOCEROS, KAUP. 



PLATE IV., FIGS. 8, 9. 



The occurrence of this species in the Red Crag, near Sutton, 

 was first pointed out by Sir R. Owen (Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc., 

 Vol. XII., p. 224, 1856), and one of the figures given (p. 234, 

 fig. 14) agrees^so well with Kaup's example (Ossem. Foss. Darm- 

 stadt, Plate xxiv., fig. 3c) that one can scarcely do otherwise 

 than accept this determination, especially if C. anoceros, Kaup 

 (loc. cit. y fig. 2), and C. trigonoceros, Kaup (loc. cit., fig. 4), are 

 accepted as synonyms of the present species, which has been 

 done by Prof. Boyd Dawkins (Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc 

 Vol. XXXIV, p. 403, 1878), and by Mr. R. Lydekker in the 

 British Museum (Cat. Foss. Mam., part 2, p. 117, 1885). Prof. 

 Boyd Dawkins (Quart. Journ. GeoL Soc., Vol. XXXIV, p. 413, 

 1878) would refer the specimens figured by Sir R. Owen (Quart. 

 Journ. Geol. Soc., Vol. XII., p. 234) to C. suttonensis, but the
