DE. 1'. e. PARSON'S OX THE 



[Jan. 15, 



Capt. Dunn made his collection on the Zeraf Eiver (apparently 

 the Giraffe Eiver, sometimes spelt Seraf and sometimes _ Zarafe) ; 

 many of the specimens are ticketed with a definite locality which 

 looks like " Gabt-el-Meghahid or Neeghahid,"' but, as it is written 

 in pencil, I am not certain of the spelling. Many of the specimens 

 are in tolerably good condition and all are readily recognizable.

 {Chrysochloris trevelyani) . By F. G. Parsons, Lecturer 

 on Comparative Anatomy at St. Thomas's Hospital. 



[Received December 15, 1900.] 



(Text-figure 6.) 



The two specimens of Chrysochloris on which the following 

 notes are made were kindly placed at my disposal by Prof. G. B. 

 HoAves and Prof. C. Stewart. The muscles of more than one 

 species of the animal have already been recorded by Dr. Dobson 

 in his work on the Insectivora ^ It has been my lot to repeat 

 many of Dobson's dissections, and I have as great a respect for his 

 accuracjf as for that of any other morphologist with whose writings 

 I am familiar : still it is of great importance that our knowledge 

 of any animal should rest, as far as possible, on the work of 

 several observers ; and in this case, although the chief result of my 



^ The Wbite Nile specimens seem to bo generally rather small for tbis 

 species. 



^ All the specimens are of the extreme wet phase — B infida ; only one 

 male was obtained. Of B. hoguensis wet, intermediate, and dry phases of the 

 female were taken.
