Sentence:  The <WSD>Zubr</WSD>, or European Bison.&mdash;("Bison zubris.") /  The "bonasos", or "monapos", described by Aristotle as inhabiting Pæonia (the modern province of Bulgaria, in Turkey), and the "bison", which Pausanias and Oppian describe as existing in the same locality, appear to be the present species, although no longer found there; and it is, no doubt, the animal called "zimbr" in Moldavia, about the time of Demetrius Cantemir. It has also been called "wisen, wisant, visant, ure, our, auer, auerocks, urochs," and "tur"; evidently originating in the more classic terms bison, urus, and taurus. There is a third species of bison ("Bison Caucasica"), inhabiting Mount Caucasus, and probably some districts of India and other parts of Asia. 
Meaning of the word marked with <WSD> tags:  One of several species of European bison or aurochs, which were unclearly delineated in the 1800s when this sense was in use. (from the 1820s onwards)
