5. On a Collection of Mammals from Morocco, 

 By W. E. DE WiNTON, F.Z.S. 



[Eeceived December 1, 1897.] 



Owing to the difficulty of entering the country on account of 

 the inhospitality of the inhabitants, very little is known of the 

 fauna of Morocco, and, as is usual, the least known are the Mam- 

 malia. Practically nothing has been done in the way of collecting 

 during recent years, and such animals as are known have almost 

 entirely been obtained alive for trade purposes, or have been 

 collected in the neighbourhood of the coast-towns frequented by 

 Europeans. It was with great pleasure therefore that I undertook, 

 at the request of Mr. J. S. Whitaker, E.Z.S., the task of working 

 out the present collection made by Mr. E. Dodson, a young 

 naturalist, who went out on behalf of Mr. Whitaker in the spring 

 of this year to collect birds and mammals in that country. Going 

 inland from Tangier, the ordinary trade-route was taken to Eez, 

 thence to Mekinez and back to the coast north of Rabat. Hence 

 the coast-route was taken southward to Mazagan, thence striking 

 inland to Morocco city. 



Erom Morocco city Mr. Dodson first visited the Great Atlas 

 range to the south at Amsmiz and penetrated to Imintella ; then, 

 retracing his steps to Amsmiz, he followed the northern slopes 

 to Iminzat ; from here the mountains were again visited, stays 

 being made at Enzel, Zarakten, Tetula, and Glarvi (? Glauwi) ; 

 thence he returned south of Morocco city via Eruga, Sierzet, and 

 Ogadel to Mogador on the coast, Kas el Ain, in the Province 

 of Haha, and Ecru were the most southerly points visited.
