Capricornis sumatraensis thar, Pocock, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1908, p. 176. 



Although tJiar is undoubtedly the earliest scientific

The following specimens may belong either to this or to 

 C. s. jamrachi, Pocock {Proc. Zool. Sue, 1908, p. 183). It 

 might have been expected that all the Himalayan serows 

 east of Darjiling belonged to the last-named race, but Mr. 

 Pocock (op. cit., p. 178) refers a Sikhim specimen to the 

 present one.

Although this race is unrepresented in the Hume 

 Bequest, it is mentioned here on account of being typified 

 by a specimen presented by Mr. Hume to the Museum in 

 1891. 



This race is distinguished by the entire head being 

 uniformly pale chocolate-brown, without any admixture of 

 black, although there are some black hairs on the fore part 

 of the neck. The sides of the front of the lower jaw are 

 white, but there is no light throat-patch.
