LIST op ANIMALS met with on the Eastern 
Coast of West Greenland, with Notes and 
Memoranda *. 
I. MAMMALIA. 
Teiciiecus Rosmarus:— Walrus, Morse, or Sca-liorse of 
the whale-fishers. 
Numerous remains of this animal were found on the 
shore, among the deserted huts of the natives. But no 
living specimen was found, along the coast, during this 
voyage; though I have seen it on a former occasion. 
Phoca Vitulina :—Common Seal. 
A few of this species of seal was seen, during our stay 
upon the coast; but they were in general remarkably 
scarce near the shore. 
Phoca Hispida ?—The Rough Seal. 
An occasional individual, supposed to be of this species,* 
was met with ; but none of them were killed on this voy¬ 
age. 
Mus Groenlandicus :—Greenland Mouse. 
Two or three specimens of this animal, which appears 
to be a new species, were found by my father’s sailors on 
Jameson’s Land. 
• For the Notes and Memoranda on the Insecta, I have been indebted 
to Professor Jameson; and for the Description of the Mus Grainlandica 
principally to pr Traill.
