There are two varieties of this species, the horns of which are figured 

 in the Ann. and Mag. of Nat. Hist. Vol. VII. pi. V., to one of which 

 Mr. E. Blyth applies the name of Ovis Nahoor, to the other that of 

 Ovis Burrhel (see Proceed. Zool. Soc. 1840, pp. 66 and 67) ; and it 

 remains to be determined whether these varieties are respectively 

 entitled to a specific rank. In his remarks on some mammals of Tibet 

 (Journ. As. Soc. XI. p. 283), Mr. Hodgson states : " Mr. Blyth's Ovis 

 Burrhel is no other than my Nahoor."
