Excerpt from Guide to the Specimens of the Horse Family (Equidæ): Exhibited in the Department of Zoology, British Museum, (Natural History), Cromwell Road, London, S. W
In these pages the term Horse is mainly used in the more restricted sense.
Different views are entertained with regard to the limitations of the family Equidae, some naturalists including in it all the extinct animals belonging to the same line of descent, or phylum, while others restrict it to those more or less nearly related to the living species.
