N. B. — Mr. Ogilvy has unwisely confound- 

 ed this type with his Kemas, the charac- 

 ters of which group were, by the bye, first 

 correctly stated by myself; as were those 

 of Hemitragus. Mr. Ogilvy lays extreme 

 stress on the interdigital pores of the An- 

 tilopidse. But I find them in the tame 

 Sheep and Goats, and they are larger in 

 Tragine than in Cervine forms among the 

 Antelopidse ; for example, in the Thar 

 than in the Chiru. I therefore question 

 their importance, and omit them. 



66. Ovis, wild. 2 Sp. new. ximmonoides, nob. et 



Nahur, nob. three tame varieties, 

 viz. the Hunia, Barwal, and Cago.
