THE SECRETARY ON ADDITIONS TO THE MENAGERIE. 489 
It would appear that there may be some place in Hungary 
where the short-faced type and long-faced type may be found 
close together. 
A book has lately been published by an Austrian gentleman on 
the Management of Deer Forests, and in this book he mentions 
that in some part of Hungary two types of Stags are to be met 
with; he describes one as of a grey colour and the other of a red 
colour. He says nothing about the shape of the skulls, but I 
think it is quite probable that the grey-coloured stag may turn 
out to be the long-faced Cervus elaphus maral. 
It is much to be desired that more specimens of skulls (with or 
without horns) should be obtained from different localities.” 
- The following are the weights and measurements (in inches) of 
the specimens exhibited :—
