It is by no means certain that all the species here indicated are 
distinct, or are to be distinguished by the characters assigned to 
them, unassisted by the country which they inhabit : but they seem 
distinct, and it appears to be desirable that they should be distin- 
guished until we have the means of more completely investigating 
them, and of examining and comparing the' animals which form 
them.
