He made these computations without any preconceived theory as to what he might find and studied the curves of variation which resulted. On these he discovered that certain measurements showed sufficiently great differences between regions to warrant calling them different subspecies. Study of the curves forced him to divide the species into Gorilla gorilla gorilla (Savage & Wyman) or Coast, and Gorilla gorilla beringei (Matschie) or Mountain. It happens that the first of these...
