Show 100 DR. ST. G. MIVART O N [Mar. 18, The specimen thus described, which is the type of the species, is in the British Museum (No. 758), and its skull (figs. 1 & 2) is there also. Fig. 1. Bearing in mind m y past experience of Canine variability, I have carefully examined this skin and skull, but cannot convince myself that it is anything more than a dark form of C. azarce. The skull I found to present no noteworthy differences. Its snout is slightly shorter and broader than are the snouts of three skulls of C. azarce, but not more so than is a fourth skull also attributed to that species. |
