OSTEOLOGY. 



Horns, separate. Bokhara. Presented by the East India Com- 

 pany. 



The skull named Ovis Polii in the Museum of the India Com- 

 pany, Leadenhall Street, which was sent from the Asiatic Society 

 of Bengal, agrees with Blyth's figure, and is probably one of the 

 heads he describes as being in that Collection ; the facial line is 

 very convex. 



The India Company received from Capt. Strachan (Dec. 1850) 

 the skin, with head and horns, which exactly resembles the pair 

 of horns and skull from the Bengal Society, and with Blyth's 

 figures ; but it is evidently a variety of the Domestic Sheep co- 

 vered with wool. 



The animal does not agree with the Katchgar or Wild Sheep 

 of Wood's Sources of the Oxus, 368, quoted by Mr. Blyth in the 

 Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal.
