Iu this important paper, remains of all the Siwalik species of Giraf- 
fidce are fully described and figured. The family is shown to include 
the genera Camelopardalis, Orasius , Vishnutherium, Helladotherium, Hy- 
daspitherium, Bramatherium , and Sivalherium , and is, as a whole, most 
nearly related to the Cervidce. The differences between the various 
genera and species are described at length, and seven excellent plates 
of bones and teeth are appended.
