Recherches pour servir à l'histoire naturelle des Mammifères comprenant des considerations sur la classification de ces animaux

Abstract

LAST year we called our readers' attention to the zoological researches lately made in the Tibeto-Chinese province of Moupin, by the French traveller, Armand David,* and to the particular importance of his discoveries in the class of Mammals. The work now before us gives a complete account of the many new forms the knowledge of which we owe to the energy of this excellent traveller and naturalist, besides other important contributions to the history of the same class of animals.

Recherches pour servir à l'histoire naturelle des Mammifères comprenant des considerations sur la classification de ces animaux:

par M. H. Milne-Edwards: des observations sur l'hippopotame de Siberia et des études sur la Faune de la Chine et du Tibet Oriental: par M. Alphonse Milne-Edwards. Two vols. 4to., text and plates. (Paris: G. Masson, 1868–74.)
