It is of a brownish white color, with the feet, the tip of the tail, and a broad stripe across the forehead black. It shows the distribution of dark and light colors character- istic of all members of this family. Other unimportant species of this animal are the Si- berian Polecat (Mustela-eversmanni), which can be distin- guished by certain differences in the form of the skull and its nearly white back and head; and the Tibetan Pole- cat (Mustela-larvata),-found in Ladok and Polecat.

The Cape Polecat of South Africa (Itonyx-zorilla), is so much like a small Skunk that it is often taken for a member of the same group; the teeth, however, are smaller and more like those of the Polecat between which and the Skunks it appears to be a connecting link. Both in size and shape it is like the Polecat. It has a broad head, small rounded ears, and a very sharp muzzle; the tail is bushy, and about three quarters of the length of the body which measures about twelve inches. The fur is glossy black and marked with white stripes and spots. The upper part of the tail is mostly white, and there are always some white spots on the head and tail. Its range is from the Cape of Good Hope to Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Petersen, Marcus, 1854-.
