Hernandez’s description and figure calls for an animal entirely white 
below, including the lower half of the sides of the head, and the light and 
shade of his figure agree with his description. Lichtenstein long since ' 
claimed that Hernandez’s account of his Macama was not entitled to seri- 
ous consideration, and expressed the opinion that it was a “Spiesser”’ of 
Cervus mexicanus, an opinion I feel forced to accept.

Oct. 30, 1914. Talamanca, Costa Rica. 
A series of 6 specimens from Tuma and Savala, Nicaragua (eastern slope, 
800 to 1000 feet altitude), and 1 from San Juan Telpaneca, Nicaragua (north 
of Matagalpa, altitude 3500 feet), are referred to Mr. Hollister’s recently 
described subspecies cerasina (type locality Talamanca, Costa Rica, but to 
which specimens from “Guatemala” are also referred). Also 1 specimen 
from Pozo Azul, Costa Rica. | 
Two of these specimens, the one from San Juan Telpaneca, taken in 
January, the other from Pozo Azul, taken in July, are very much darker 
than any of the others of the series, but, considering the wide separation’ 
of the two localities and the dates of collecting (January and July), they are 
doubtless only to be regarded as exceptionally highly colored examples. 
The “brown” (rufous brown) band on the chin, mentioned in the descrip- 
tion of this form, is:rarely noticeably present in my series, while the hairs 
on the back of the neck are strongly reversed in six of the eight specimens. 
Five adult skulls from Nicaragua average, total length, 185 (180-190); 
condylobasal length, 174 (170-180); occipitonasal length, 161 (158-165); 
preorbital length, 88.5 (85-89.5); zygomatic breadth, 80.6 (77-86); orbital 
breadth, 79.1 (77-82); interorbital breadth, 39.2 (37-43.2); occipital 
breadth, 51.2 (48.5-54); breadth of braincase, 57.1 (56.3-58); length of 
nasals, 51.2 (47-55); breadth of nasals, 22 (19-22); maxillary toothrow, 
56.2 (54-58); m3, 26.9 (25-28). 
The ratio of preorbital to condylobasal length is 48 (47.2-48.3).
