Mouflon the "Systema Naturæ", Linnaeus and Gmelin treated the mouflon and argali as one species. Von Schreiber used the combination "Ovis aries musimon" as early as 1782. In 1792, Robert Kerr listed the "Corsican argali" as a separate variety of argali ("Ovis Ammon europaea"), writing I have introduced this variety on the authority of Mr Pennant, who distinguishes between the Argali of Corsica and the Siberian, though the difference seems chiefly in colour ; one specimen brought from that island by the famous Paoli, differed from the above in colour, having a large white spot on the front of the neck,

However, other subspecies of "Equus ferus" may have existed and could
