Abstract
MR. CLARK, of Cambridge, in NATURE of Oct. 31, remarks on the general absence of skeletons, especially those of the Felidae, in museums, and states that, so far as he knows, no European museum possesses more than skulls. It is with pleasure, therefore, that I draw his attention to the fact of the existence of a perfect skeleton of the lion in the Ipswich Museum. Besides this, there is a skeleton of the mole, one of the dog-faced monkey (Cynocephalus anubis), one of the dolphin, two very finely prepared skeletons of the boa constrictor, besides others of the ostrich, &c.
