180. Lataste, F. Etude de la Faune des Yertebres de Barbarie. Act. 
Soc. L. Bord. (4) ix. pp. 129-299. 
An exhaustive paper on the fauna of Barbary, with an account of the 
literature, in which the author points out that hitherto 06 species of 
Mammals have been obtained from Barbary ; to this number he has 
added 17, of which 9 are new species, 5 belonging to new genera or sub¬ 
genera. The only new form reached in the parts of the paper published 
in 1885 is Blfa lerotina (p. 250), a new genus and species of Rodent 
[original description, see 180 d]. Following the introduction is a table 
for the determination of the different species (p. 151); in the second 
part (p. 184) the different species observed are fully described.

Part i. contains the orders Primates , Chiroptera, Insectivora, Carnivora , 
and Rodentia ; the systematic arrangement adopted is that of Professor 
Flower in his College of Surgeons’ Museum Catalogue. There is a 
useful table of the European Tertiary strata, and a list of the principal 
collections which make up the greater part of the British Museum 
fossil Mammals. Part II. contains the Artiodactyle Ungulates alone. 
191. -. Description of a Tooth of Mastodon latidens , Clift, from 
Borneo. P. Z. S. 1885, pp. 777-779. pi. xlviii. 
Interesting find, since it extends the range of M. latidens from Burma, 
its hitherto Eastern limit, to Borneo.
