PREHISTORIC TIMES IN BRITAIN. 647 



III. Sus verrucosus y var. cer arnica, 



Brit. Mus. 712 <?. * Skull, adult. A wild boar from Ceram. Collected by Mr. 

 Wallace.' Of this skull I have noted that its third molar is comparatively simple, 

 whereas the other specimens oiStis verrucosus in the British Museum have it complex. 

 All the other specimens of Sus verrucosus catalogued p. 330, Catalogue 1869, as Sus 

 verrucosus, with the exception of No. 1^62 d, which was received from Mr. Wallace as 

 Sus vittatus, have been noted by me as having the lacrymal long in relation to its height, 

 and as having complex molars. As, however, Nathusius, I. c. p. 179, has noted the 

 lacrymal to be short in a specimen obtained by him from Java, and as, of two skulls 

 figured by Solomon Miiller (' Verhandl.' tab. 32. figs. 2 and 4), one has the lacrymal 

 short and the other long, it is clear that this species varies in this matter. The 

 closely allied species Sus celebensis cannot be said quite certainly, from MuUer's pi. 

 28 bis, fig. 3, to have, or not to have, the long lacrymal usually found in the pigs with 

 facial warts. 



Height of lacrymal I'O in. ; malar border 0-75 in. 



IV. Sus barbatiis, Borneo. 



Skull of Sus harhatus. 1519 (^, 0. U. Museum. Figured plate V. fig. 7. 

 Height of lacrymal 1.2 in. ; malar border 1.2 in. 



Skull of Sus harhatus. Procured in Borneo by the Eev. C. Spencer Bubb. 

 Height of lacrymal i»2 in. ; malar border 1.2 in. 



Skull of Sus harhatus. British Museum, 712 a; called Euhys harhatus, Hand-list, 

 p. 58, 1873. 



Height of lacrymal i • 1 5 in. ; malar border i in. 



In Sus harhatus the lacrymo-frontal ridge is not very prominent, though recog- 

 nisable: in the shortness of the lacrymal, which is a constant character in this 

 species, so far as recorded in S. Miiller's figures and elsewhere, and in the characters 

 of the naso-frontal suture, it resembles Sus cristatus and its allies rather than Sus 

 scrofa.
