* Mr. Lydekker in the " Deer of all Lands" refers this form to C. nigricans 

 Brooke. To settle this question satisfactorilj' it will be necessary to get to- 

 gether specimens of the two forms, as the best descriptions often mislead. 

 From my recollection of the type of C. steerii I did not think it was the same 

 as C. nigricans when I examined the type of that animal in London, and its 

 diminutive size precludes it from any comparison with C. philippinus H. Smith.
