The above specimens agree closely with specimens from Singapore, coll. Kuilev, 
identified with Wallich's species, with specimens from Java named Qarcxn%a 
brevirostris Scheff., and with the various descriptions of the species, and I do not 
hesitate to refer the Miudoro specimens here. King states that Scheffer s species 
is identical with Wallich's, and judging from the material before me I consider 
that he is correct. T., Basan, Basal; Mang., Banoian.
