Abstract
DR. A. NEHRING has recently (Abhandl. Mus. Dresden, 1889, No. 2, p. 14 et seq.) characterized the wild pig of Luzon under the title of Sus celebensis var. philippensis, and the animal found in the island of Palawan (Paragua) as Sus barbatus var. palavensis. It would seem that both these local races or species have been already characterized and figured by M. Huet from specimens collected by M. Alfred Marche—the first-named as Sus marchei (Le Naturaliste, 1888, p. 6), and the second as Sus ahenobarbus (op. cit., p. 5).
