Cervus Mppelaphus, of Cuvier, although generally stated 

 to be a Javan form, is typified by antlers brought from 

 Sumatra by Diard, and the types of C. tvnjuc are also 

 Sumatran ; but C. ri'ssa is typically Javan, while Hiisa 

 IKtradoxa and G. rufus are based on representatives of this 

 deer introduced, respectively, into Mauritius and liodriguez. 

 Deer of this type also occur in Borneo, where, however, 

 according to Brooke, they have been introduced by the 

 IMalays. 



If the Javan form be racially distinct from the Sumatran 

 it should be known as G. timoriensis rusa.^
