Text Appearing Before Image:
manjaro animals, and are betterplaced with the form described by Heller from the northern shoreof Victoria Nyanza, Fells le:> nijamx. I can not distinguish skins andskulls from the region north of Mount Kenia from specimens killedon the Kapiti Plains and in other southern localities. Lonnberghas referred a specimen from the Northern Guaso Nyiro to the Soma-liland race, but our somewhat more plentiful material does not jus-tify such a conclusion. A single skin from the Guas Ngishu Plateauis clearly of the East African rather than of the Uganda form. Wnile on the whole there is remarkable uniformity in skulls of thislion, there are a few cases of considerable individual variation in sizeof fully adult examples, as shown in the accompanying tables of 1 Smithsonian Misc. (oil., vol. 56, No. 2, pp. 1-12. March 31, 1910. 2 Life-Uistoiies of Africiin Oame Animals, vol. 1, p. 227. 1914.•■! Kungl. Svcnska Vet. Handl., ^ ol. 48, No. 5, p. 74. 1912. U. S.

Skulls and teeth of females vary-much more than do those of males. The range of variation in sizeof the teeth in lionesses from one locality is startling. There is greatvariation in the shape and size of the auditory bullae in sloiUs fromone locality. Out of seven wild-killed adult males, with manes well grown, onlytwo are black-maned lions. A skin collected by Doctor Abbottnear KiUmanjaro has the entire mane almost pure black, and onecollected by Kermit Roosevelt on the Laikipia Plateau has the manelargely black. From the same locaUties are yellow-maned Hons withscarcely a trace of black in the hair of the head, neck, and shoulders.Several others have slight traces of black in the manes, but the ordi-nary condition seems to be the almost purely yellow-maned type.
