Fig 179. The Manitl (F. ManuTy. (44.) The Straw or Pampas Cat (Felis pajeros). * This animal is about the size of our wild cat, but is more robust in build, with a smaller head and a shorter tail. The hair is long, and the colour of the body is yellowish-grey, marked with transverse bands of yellow or brown, which run obliquely from the back to the flanks. Two patches descend from the eyes over the cheeks, and meet beneath the throat- The animal is whitish beneath. The legs and tail are marked with dark bands. Length from snout to tail root, twenty-five inches; length of tail, twelve inches. The skull has the snout remarkably short, and therefore is very convex above anteriorly when seen in profile. The nasal region is much pinched in laterally, and the nasals are very narrow in their hinder half. The zygomata are greatly arched outwards. The first upper premolar is wanting. The cusp of the first lower premolar is much prolonged. This animal appears to be a New-World form which represents as it were F. Manul of the Old World. It inhabits the Pampas and Patagonia down to the Straits of Magellan. * Gray, Pro. Zool. Soc, 1867, p. 269 ; and Catalogue of Carnivora, p. 18. For the skull, see a paper by Dr. R. A. Philippi, in Wiegmann's Arcliiv, 1873 p. 8, plate 3, figs. 3 aud 4.
