Delineations of the Ox Tribe: The Natural History of Bulls, Bisons, and Buffaloes. / Exhibiting all the Known Species and the More Remarkable Varieties of the Genus Bos.

The work is a natural-history monograph surveying members of the Ox tribe, presenting descriptions, comparative anatomy, and engraved illustrations of known species and notable varieties. It compiles accounts of wild and domestic forms — bison, aurochs, yak, gayal, various buffaloes, gaur, musk ox, zebu, and regional cattle — alongside osteological data such as vertebral counts and gestation-period tables. Species descriptions are supported by skeleton and skull examinations, measurements, habitat notes, reproductive observations, and practical remarks on husbandry and utility. Appendices discuss classification difficulties, variation versus species boundaries, and specific curiosities such as free-martins and short-nosed varieties. The author consolidates existing observations, supplies original measurements and engravings, and encourages further field inquiry to clarify ambiguous taxa.
