612 MR. F. MOORE ON BENGALESE LEPIDOPTERA. [May 23, 



comparatively small whilst the animal is fed upon milk ; the young 

 Hippopotamus I dissected took a large quantity of this fluid, and 

 hence probably the small size of the first gastric cavity. Judging 

 from the form of the stomachs and the character of the villi, one 

 would almost infer that a certain amount of rumination takes place 

 in this animal.
