Summary: | Fig. 1. Representation of the distribution of mammals according to their zones and provinces by Wagner (1844). The southern boundary of the northern polar province is indicated by a line of a different colour, drawn somewhat further south than the equatorial border of the Arctic fox ([Vulpes] lagopus), although not so far in some places as the reindeer may descend there on their summer migrations. The southern polar province is not included in this map, because it is only in the process of discovery and, according to all previous experience, it does not harbour land mammals (Wagner 1846b, p. 241; Table 1).
