Jour. Proc. Asiatic Soc. Bengal (n.s.) 1(9): 238-243. Pls. 7-9. "Nov. 1905" (publ. Jan. 10, 1906).
–Detailed account of the external anatomy of an Indian dugong, with comments on dugong behavior and hunting in India, Andaman Islands, and Australia. Halicore australis is synonymized with H. dugong. Stomach contents of one specimen were unbruised green algae. According to Pocock (1940: 331), a "final report" on dugong systematics by Annandale was withdrawn because of the publications by Dexler & Freund (1906a, b, c).
