right to record my testimony in favour of its distinctness. In gene- 

 ral colour and shape it unquestionably closely resembles >S. sciurea ; 

 but its naked ears (see figure) render it easily recognizable.

Galago garnetti, Sclater, P. Z. S. 1864, p. 711, pi. xl. 



On showing two examples of the Galago which we usually call 

 Galago garnetti, living in the Gardens, to M. Alphonse Milne-Ed- 

 wards, he immediately recognized them as the Otolemur agisymbanus 

 of Coquerel ; and upon reference to the description of that author 

 there can be little doubt, I think, that these two names are syno- 

 nymous. 



The only certain locality for this Galago yet known is the island 

 of Zanzibar, that of "Port Natal," hitherto given in the Catalogue 

 of Vertebrates, resting on imperfect information. 



4. Capra picta. (Plate LVIII.) 



JEgocerus pictus, Erhardt, Fauna d. Cycladen, p. 29. 



The female Ibex from Crete, presented by Mr. Sandwith on the 30th 

 of September last, for which I was unable to find a name when I re- 

 ported its arrival* seems to belong to the sEgocerus pictus of Erhardt's 

 'Fauna der Cycladen,' published at Leipsic in 1858. Dr. Erliard 

 discovered this species in the island of Eremomelos or Antimelos, a 

 little rocky island near Melos, in 1854, but says that, according to 

 the reports of English Officers, it also occurs in Crete. 



This species being so little known, I have had a drawing of the 

 specimen made by Mr. Keulemans.
