Typical locality the Molucca group (Amboina, Boru, and 

 P-atchian) ; the range also including Celebes. 



Stated to differ from the Javan form of the next race by 

 its inferior size, and especially the want of a distinct mane on 

 the neck of the males, and the absence of a distinct terminal 

 tuft to the tail ; as a rule, the antlers are relatively small, 

 the build is low and stout, and the head large and thick. 

 In two exceptionally fine pairs of antlers the dimensions are 

 as follows : length along outer curve .36J and 27i inches ; 

 basal girth 4-g and 4f inches ; tip-to-tip interval 18^ and 

 14J inches. 



Like the preceding race, the Moluccan rusa may have 

 Ijeen introduced into its present habitat by the Malays.
