Mr. Swinhoe gave an account of the habits of the Pig in Formosa 

 (P. Z. 8. 1862, p. 361). It is a Sus, and not a Porcula. 



Mr. Swinhoe (P. Z. S. 1862, p. 361) thinks this is a WM Pig, the 

 original stock of the Chinese Domestic Pig. 



Mr. Blyth says this is the animal from which the Chinese Do- 

 mestic Pig is supposed to be derived. There are three animals in 

 the Zoological Gardens (Feb. 1867) which appear to be a domestic 

 race from Formosa, although not much altered save in colouring 

 from the wild animals (Blyth, Land and "Water, Feb. 16, 1867, 

 p. 84). 



" Mr. Fraser has just received from the Island of Formosa, per the 

 ' Maitlandj' one Boar and one Sow of a red variety, and one Sow in 

 pig, black variety, of a new species of Pig (Siis taevanus, Swinhoe, 

 Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond.) supposed to be the wild origin of the weU- 

 known Chinese Pig (Dec. 1867)."— P. .Z: S. 1868, p. 27.
