The specimen thus described, which is the type of the species, is 

 in the British Museum (No. 758), and its skull (figs. 1 & 2) is there 

 also.

Bearing in mind my past experience of Canine variability, I have 

 carefully examined this skin and skull, but cannot convince myself 

 that it is anything more than a dark form of C. azarce. The skull 

 I found to present no noteworthy differences. Its snout is slightly 

 shorter and broader than are the snouts of three skulls of C. azarce, 

 but not more so than is a fourth skull also attributed to that species.
