Siwalik Carnivora

Abstract

MAY I ask space to thank your correspondents for their answer to my previous inquiries concerning collections of Siwalik fossils in England, (many of which I have not yet had an opportunity of visiting,) and to add that I am now about undertaking the description of Siwalik Carnivora for the Indian Government? All remains of this order are very scarce, and in general fragmentary, and every specimen is, therefore, important. If any specimens exist in any provincial collections, I should be very glad of any information regarding them, and if possible of the opportunity of describing them in my forthcoming memoir. Any specimens sent to me, to the care of Dr. H. Woodward, F.R.S., British Museum (Natural History), Cromwell Road, S.W., will be thankfully received, and duly returned after comparison and description, if necessary.
