extending very far inland, and replaced in the interior by 

 Macropvs rvfus. 



" Native names, ' Yongure ' J , ' Woyre ' $ ." — G. (J. S. 



20. Macropus rufus Desm. 



" Occurring in the Sonth-west — from the west of Southern 

 Cross throughout the Interior, evidently not so dependent on 

 water as M. giganteus. The females, which are normally blue, 

 are not infrequently of the same sandy-red colour as the males. 



" Native name, '"Bigoder.' "—G. C. S. 



21. Macropus irma Jourd. 



14 specimens from Stockpool, Dwaladine, Woyaline, and Dale 

 River. 



" Generally distributed over the South-west. Not gregarious 

 like the smaller wallabies ; more resembling the larger kangaroos 

 in habits. When hunted with dogs they are very swift and can 

 tu.rn and double with great agility. 



"Brush Kangaroo of Colonists, ' Quoirer' of natives." — G. C S. 



22. Macropus eugenei Desm. 



19 specimens from Stockpool, Dwaladine, Woyaline, and Dale 

 River. 



" The most plentiful and widely-distributed wallaby in the 

 South-west. Frequenting dense thickets, where they usually 

 collect together in large numbers. 



" Native name, ' Tammar.' " — G. C. S. 



23. Macropus brachyurus Quoy &, Gaim. 



" Very plentiful around Albany, but not extending very far 

 inland. It seems to be far more coastal in its range than any of 

 the other wallabies, not appearing to occur anywhere at a great 

 distance from the sea ; gregarious. Resembling M. eugenei in 

 habits. 



" Native name, ' Bangcup.' " — G. G. S. 



24. Petrogale lateralis Gould. 



9 specimens from Stockpool, east of Beverley. 



" Fairly plentiful among low rocky hills around York and 

 Beverley. Seemingly local and patchy in its distribution ; 

 according to the natives it does not occur among the Stirling 

 Ranges. 



" Native name, ' Boggile.' " — G. C S. 



25. Onychogale lunata Gould. 



18 specimens from "Woyaline, east of Pin jelly. 



" More local than Macropus eugenei and seeming to prefer 

 lower and more scj'ubby thickets than that animal. Very 

 numerous in some localities ; it rather resembles the Kangaroo-
