Gen. IX. ^ — FUNAMBULUS. 



The crenus Funambulus was established by Lesson in 1832 

 for the Sciurus palmarum, L., but was not generally adopted. 

 As late as 1897 Thomas mentions it (P. Z. S. p. 933), but 

 in a much wdder sense than that now accepted. Thomas in 

 1908 (J. B. N. H. S., xviii, p. 246), finally restricted it 

 as now used. It is interesting to note that no member of the 

 genus is found outside the Indian Peninsula, south of the River 

 Ganges, and that at the same time no other form of squirrel, 

 excluding the flying and giant squirrels, is found within its 

 range.
