transmitted them to Dr. Gray, finally regarded the "mass of 
vertebre as belonging to Catodon australis.” Until the ac- 
quirement of further data, the relations of the form will be 
doubtful. 
8. The Species of Kogiins. Representatives of the sub- 
family have been obtained at the Cape of Good Hope, 
near Sidney (Australia), and from the coast of the Madras 
Presidency, and respectively attributed to four species. To 
the localities already distinguished, we may now add Lower 
California, from which the lower jaw of a specimen, as well 
as a figure and notice of the animal, have recently been for- 
warded by Colonel Grayson. It would therefore appear 
probable that the group is quite generally distributed in the

Pacifie Ocean, and probably in the South Atlantic. The 
four forms previously distinguished as species have been re- 
ferred by Dr. Gray, as already indicated, to two genera, 
Kogia and Euphysetes; the latter name having been re- 
stricted to the form on which it was primitively based, while 
the three others have been referred to Kogia. As above 
remarked, the pertinence of the new diagnosis of Huphy- 
setes to its type is not apparent, and is at variance with 
the original description as well as figure of the species. Of 
the species mentioned, the Indian form is by far the best 
known, thanks to Sir Walter Elliot, the collector, and Pro- 
fessor Owen, the describer; two Australian forms have been 
specifically distinguished by Mr. Krefft, after an examination 
of the skeletons of both; the species of the Cape of Good 
Hope is only known from a skull, and the Californian species
