Discussion. 
Mr. Lyprexxer agreed with the author that the species was a 
Gazelle. He remarked that the Hyena occurring in the Crag was 
an African type, and that further comparison of the present species 
with African Gazelles was desirable. There was very little differ- 
ence between the genera Antilope and Gazella; and in the case of 
fossil forms, our knowledge of which is necessarily imperfect, he 
thought the recognition of a single genus would suffice. 
Mr. Branrorp remarked that the present paper was the outcome 
of an excellent piece of paleontological work, and complimented the 
author upon the perseverance with which he had deduced such 
valuable results from such exceedingly scanty materials. He re- 
marked, however, in connexion with the affinities of this fossil 
Antelope, that the author stated that he had compared his specimen 
with the Abyssinian Gazelle, as well as with the Indian species, 
but the Abyssinian animal is regarded by some of the best autho- 
rities as forming a distinct species from the typical Gazella dorecas, 
which inhabits northern Africa and, as a dweller in the Mediter- 
ranean and Palearctic region, comes nearer than any other in geo- 
graphical range to the species described. After noticing the present 
distribution of the genus Gazella, he pointed out that nearly all 
the species were inhabitants of plains, and most of deserts, and that 
the occurrence of this species in the Crag might perhaps indicate 
the condition of England in Pliocene times.. 
Prof. Prestwicy said that this species was particularly valuable,
