It shows at a glance the arrangement of 31 of the most interesting muscles in the bodies of Ungulates. So far as we know, the muscles which are not included have either the generalised mammalian arrangement, or else are specially characteristic of all Ungulates, in which case they have already been given on p. 291. Another point in which this Table may be valuable is that it draws special attention to the gaps in our knowledge, and this is often the first step towards filling them up. BIBLIOGRAPHY. I.
