Mouflon and being black on the shoulders. In Corsica this animal is named Mufro. Pallas, grouping goats and sheep together into a single genus "Aegoceros", distinguished the mouflon from the argali at species level in 1811 ("Ae. musimon" and "Ae. argali" respectively). In 1840 Blyth proposed that the Armenian and Cypriot sheep were also separate species, which he named "Ovis Gmelinii" (after "the younger Gmelin") and "O. Ophion" (from a name recorded by Pliny). Current taxonomy in some sources such as MSW and ITIS treats the mouflons and urials as subspecies of the domestic sheep, "Ovis aries" Linn. 1758. However ICZN
Wild water buffalo International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature placed "Bubalus arnee" on the "Official List of Specific Names in Zoology", recognizing the validity of this name for a wild species. Most authors have adopted the binomen "Bubalus arnee" for the wild water buffalo as valid for the taxon. Only a few DNA sequences are available from wild water buffalo populations. Wild populations are considered to be the progenitor of modern domesticated water buffalo, but the genetic variation within "B. arnee" is unclear, and also how they are related to the domesticated river and swamp forms.
