^{page 492 note 1} It is almost generally admitted that the genus. is represented by only one recent species. However, the Italian Muscardinus rejoices in two specific names: Myoxus speciosus, Dehne, from Tursi in the Basilicata, Southern Italy (Allg. deutsche naturhist. Zeit., 1855, p. 180); and Muscardinus pulcher, Barrett-Hamilton, from Siena in Tuscany, Central Italy (Ann. Mag. Xat. Hist. (7), ii, 1898, p. 424). I have examined the skull and dentition of the type of M.pulcher and cannot find the slightest difference from Northern specimens. On ‘Myoxus speciosus’ see Blasius, Naturg. Säugeth. Deutschl., 1857, p. 298.

Besides the agreements with E. quereinus pointed out in the text, the upper molars of E. nitedulu likewise decidedly favour the same view, as has been shown by Winge: Vidensk. Medd. Naturh. For.
