ADDENDA TO “ DEER OF ALL LANDS”
T he issue o f the present volume affords a convenient opportunity for recording such
amendments and additions to the Deer o f a ll Land} as are necessary.
The hind figured on page 103 as that of the Manchurian wapiti proves to
belong to the Duke of Bedford’s deer. Consequently the redness and large size
attributed to the former animal are not warranted by the facts.
A muntjac from Borneo named Cervulus pleiharictes by Kohlbrugge1 in 18 9 5 was
overlooked ; but its claims to specific, distinction from the Indian muntjac are very
doub tfuBB
The name Dorcelafhus, used in a sub-generic sense (p. 24 8 ) for one group of
American deer, is antedatedgy, O d ^ leu s, Rafinesque, 1 8 3 2 ; and the latter is
accordingly employed by Dr. Merriam.? It was given to a fossil tooth, now identified
with the common American deer ; and such an unsatisfactory type specimen may
appear to some a good reason against its adoption. The specific name is 0 . spelxus.
Dr. Merriam s also recognises two additional sub-species of the black-tailed deer,
which he .proposes to? call Odmgieus^lumbianus sitkenM and Odoebileus ajumbianui
scaphiotus; the former being from Alaska and the latter from California.
The same writer4 also names a deer allied to the mule-deer from Cerros Island,
California, OAcotleus cerrosensts^a second5 from Chiapas, Mexico, 0 . thomasi, stated
to differ from the common American deer by being red at all seasons; and a third6
from the same district, O, mlsoni.
The acquisition by the British Museum o f a mounted specimen o f the marsh-deer
(p. 283) shows that the hair on the withers is reversed, as in the pampas deer,
although to a smaller extent. The reversal of the hair in this region becomes therefore
a characteristic of the sub-genus BhstocewM k
