672 A. Indian Deer. — Cervus indicus. 



Mr Pennant defcribes a pair of horns in the Mufeum of the Royal Society, which belong to a fpe- 

 cies of Deer, and gives an engraving of them, Hift. of quad. p. no. pi. xi. f. 3. ; thefe are, by Grew, 

 iii his rarities, p. 24. faid to belong to an Indian Roebuck, but they are evidently from fome very 

 different fpecies. They are very thick and ftrong, and the bafe is very rugged ; a little above the 

 bafe of each a fharp fnag rifes perpendicularly, which has a fmaller fnag at its bafe ; the upper part 

 of each horn turns forwards, is broad, divided into two branches, and is palmated, with numerous, 

 fnags. Thefe horns are each fixteen inches long, and the fame diftance between their tips. 



673 jw.. Squinaton. — Cervus Squinaton. 



Another obfcure fpecies is mentioned by Mr Pennant, under the name of Squinaton, or Scenoon- 

 tung, which inhabits the country weft from Hudfon's Bay ; all that is known of this animal, is, that 

 it is lefs than a Buck, and larger than a Roe, with finer legs, and {harper head. Penn. hift. of quad.-

fey* v. Grey Deer. — Cervus guineenjts. 



The animal named Grey Deer, n. 53. by Mr Pennant, and Guinea Deer, by Gmelin, Syft. nat. 

 ed. Gm. 181. n. 7. which is defcribed from the Muf. Ad. Fr. j. 12. -is an obfcure fpecies, and it is 

 doubtful whether it belongs to the genus of Deer, Mulk, or Antilope, as the fpecimen defcribed had 

 no horns. It is of the fize of a Cat, of a grey colour on the upper parts, and blackifli underneath, 

 having longifh ears ; with a large black fpot above the eyes, a black line between the ears,- a perpen- 

 dicular black line on each fide of the throat, the middle of the breaft black, the fore legs and fides 

 of the belly, as far as the hams, marked with black, and' the under fide of the tail it black. 



675 £ Unknown Deer. — Cervus anomalus. 



There are in Mr Weir's Mufeum at Edinburgh the horns of a-fmali fpecies of Deer, faid to have 

 come from feme part of America, which I have not feen defcribed in the writings of any natnralift ; 

 they are about eight inches long, and ftand erect ; their beams and branches are quite rh ; n and flat- 

 tened, dividing each into two branches, which are each two forked ; from tlis lowei yart of each beam 

 a finglc fnag projects forwards, of the line thin flatted pp, earatce wii.h all the reftj all the fnags and 

 and branches end fqr.are and abrupt. Thefe are engraved lur this work. — T.
