Show 1883."| MR. F. MOORE ON NEW ASIATIC LEPIDOPTERA. 521 yet remains to be done before we shall have arrived at an accurate knowledge of the entire anatomy of this animal. Postscript. Since the foregoing pages were written, Dr. R. J. Anderson 1 has published in the ' Journal of Anatomy' a short account of the anatomy of an additional specimen of the Indian Elephant. In this paper the author mentions the presence of a uterus, vagina, and genito-urinary passage, but communicates no particulars regarding the structure of these different parts of the female organs. Hence our knowledge of these organs and of the variations which they present in different specimens of the Indian Elephant remains in the same unsatisfactory state as before. 4.
