Mr. Hodgson has published an interesting paper on the Domestic Sheep and Goats of India, in the 
'Journal of the Asiatic Society of Calcutta' for October 1847. 
The skin described as Ixalus probaton by Mr. Ogilby, and more fully described by Mr. Blyth (P. Z. S. 
1840, 73), is most probably only a domestic variety of one of the short-haired domestic sheep.

streak on the sides ; neck is not maned ; there is no tear-bag ; the skull has no suborbital pit nor 
fissure ; the interdigital pores are distinct ; tail well developed, not tufted at the end.

Hodgson, J. A. S. Calcutta, 1846, 308.

Female sometimes without horns. 
3. AMNOTRAGUS {B/yf/i). 
The forehead is concave ; they have no tear-bag, nor any suborbital pit or fissure in the skull ; the tail 
rather long, and tufted at the extremity ; the horns are subcylindrical, turning outwards backwards, 
with the tips bent inwards towards each other ; chin not bearded ; neck maned beneath. 
These animals never have any dark mark on the face or front of the limbs, like the Goats, and they 
bleat and butt ; and the males are inodorous, like the True Sheep. Mr. Hodgson includes this genus with 
the Nervate or Nahoor in his genus Pseudois. 
AouDAD or Kebsh. Amnotragus Tragelaplius.
