1820 Sur quelques Cranes de Phoques (Journ. de Physique, XCI, Oct., 1820, pp. 286-300, 

 pi. (Dec, 1820), figs. 1-5). 



Describes (p. 387) " 1°. Sea Lion from the island of Tinian by Commodor Byron," 

 which is named " P[/tocaJ byronia?" on p. 300. P\lioca\ coronata, sp. nov. (p. 295), 

 is based on a young mounted eared seal in Bullock's Museum, London, black, with a 

 yellow band on the head, etc. P\]ioca\ Icptonyx, sp. nov., p. 298 ; ''Pit. ansomna" is 

 proposed as a provisional name on p. 299, and repeated as "P. aiisonii" on p. 300. 



A brief review of the Seals is given (pp. 290-296), which are divided into " A. Les 

 Phoques sans oreilles," and " B. Les Phoques a orielles." They are later grouped into 

 five sections, A-E, on the basis of cranial characters and dentition. Altogether some 

 16 species are recognized.

Occurrence of Otaria jtibata and 0. falklandica on the coast of Buenos Aires, with 

 critical comment on various species of authors. Otmia tilloce considered to be the 

 female of 0. jubata, and 0. godcffroyi believed to have been based on the male sex of 

 O.jubata ; 0. nigrescens is referred to 0. falklandica, from which 0. philippii is thought 

 to be perhaps separable.
