432 ON TOLYPEUTES TRICINCTUS. 
The syrinx (fig. 2, p. 431) is Columbine, with its lateral muscles 
attached inferiorly to. the membrane between the penultimate and 
antepenultimate tracheal rings. The trachea is composed of rings 
which are very yielding in the middle line posteriorly. As can be 
seen in the figure, the musculi sterno-tracheales, which are indepen- 
dent of the intrinsic muscles, are not quite symmetrically attached. 
The furcula, as is the rule in the subfamily, is very slender, but 
complete, wherein this species differs from Phenorhina goliath, in 
which it is cartilaginous at its symphysial end, according to MM. 
Verreaux and Des Murs.* 
Myologically, the ambiens is to be found, not large; the femoro- 
caudal with its accessory head are well developed; the semitendinosus 
and its accessorius are the same. 
There are two carotids; so that in this as well as all the other 
features above mentioned Carpophaga latrans agrees with my definition 
of the division of the Columbide.-into which it naturally falls, its 
gizzard differing, however, from that of all but one of the species 
which have been examined. 
72. NOTES ON THE ANATOMY OF TOLYPEUTES TRI- 
CINTUS, WITH REMARKS ON OTHER ARMA- 
DILLOS.t 
Tue Society purchased, on the 8rd of October 1877, a young 
female living specimen of the Apar (Tolypeutes tricinctus), which was 
the first example of the species exhibited alive in the Gardens, and 
probably the first ever brought alive to this country. It was in bad 
health on its arrival, and, never recovering, died, without any visible 
lesion, on the 27th of December following. Its death has given me 
an opportunity of determining some of the most important points in 
its anatomy, which may be accepted as a supplement to Dr. Murie’s 
valuable and elaborate memoir on Tolypeutes conurus in the ‘* Trans- 
actions of the Linnean Society.” 
The measurements of the specimen under consideration are as 
follows :—
