Wales district there have been recorded the following: some of them may have a larger distribution on the Continent, when these countries become better known, and some of them (marked with a star*) are common to this district, and Van Diemen's Land: 1.

Two species are remarkable as being common to the East and South sides of the Continent, namely: 48. Macropus laniger. 84. Mus lutreola. 26.* P. fasciata. The latter is also found in Van Diemen's Land. And the four following species are common to the South, West, and East sides of the Continent: 5. Scotophilus australis. 32. Phalangista vulpina. 38. Hepoona cookii, and varieties. 81. Hydromys chrysogaster. These are all also found in Van Diemens' Land, and may therefore be considered as the most generally distributed of all the Australian animals. Both the Phalangista and the Hepoona are very variable in their colours, and may prove to comprise different species when we are enabled to examine a larger number of specimens from different localities. ...
