In a second paper Mr. Lydekker described tlie skull of a 

 Bruang, or Malay Bear, fi'om Tibet, which he proposed to regard 

 as representing a distinct race. 



In continuation of his paper on South-Indian JSTudibranchs 

 (Proc.Zool.Soc. 1906, pp. 636-691), Sir Charles Eliot, K.C.M.G., 

 presented a supplementary account of the radulse of various 

 species based on microscopic slides prepared by Alder and 

 Hancock, which had just been discovered in the Hancock Museum 

 at Newcastle on-Tyne. These slides confirmed many of the identi- 

 fications suggested in the first paper, and in particular showed 

 that Doris glenei was a Chromodoris, and that Doris villosa was 

 Thordisa maculigera Bgh.
