@peter, sorry for disturb you again, but I have a doubt.

I was collecting all the skulls reported for the Javanese tigers in literature, and I think that is very weird that J. H. Mazák did not included the large male skull of 349 mm in his document. However, he mentions that used the data from V. Mazák, which do measured this skull.

My question to you is:
I know that you measured this specimen, here is the picture:

So, I will like to know if the measurements reported by Mazák (1983) and Sody (1947) are accurate with your own. I see no reason to exclude this specimen.

Help me please.
