"Central American mammals found in this ecoregion include the Central American spider monkey (Cryptotis nigrescens), Mexican mouse opossum (Marmosa mexicana), blackish small-eared shrew (Cryptotis nigrescens), and Yucatan deer mouse (Peromyscus yucatanicus)."
"There is certainly a scarce type which, for want of a better hypothesis, might be called Greek: of delicate build and below the average height, small-eared and straight-nosed, with curly hair that varies from blonde to what Italians call _castagno chiaro."
"Of this route we have a trace in the land animals engraved upon the well-known Black Obelisk, where the combination of the small-eared or Indian elephant and the rhinoceros with the two-humped Bactrian camel, sufficiently marks the line by which the productions of India, occasionally at, any rate, reached Assyria."
