        {Canid[ae]}, of many species. The European fox ({V.

        [1913 Webster]
  
     Note: The black or silver-gray fox is a variety of the
           American red fox, producing a fur of great value; the

           the same species, of less value. The common foxes of
           Europe and America are very similar; both are
