Abstract
Only one subspecies, E. h. onager Boddaert 1785, exists in the modern fauna of the former USSR. E. h. hemionus Pallas 1775 inhabited the Transbaikal part of the range and has been extinct since the latter part of the 18th century. E. h. finschii Matschie 1911 inhabited the Kazakhstan part of the range and became extinct in 1936–1937 (Heptner 1989; Blank and Dzhanyspaev 1990).
