SUMMARY OF THE INDIAN MAMMAL SURVEY. 



965 



Blanforcl gave the name watsoni to the form from northern 

 India. Hodgson named a " ilfws m^oi/inx," which the mutilated 

 skin, which constitutes the type, shows to have been a GoLUNDA 

 (?) but pending the receipt of further specimens I can only- 

 rank it as ellioti. These three forms may be arranged in a key 

 as follows : —

Gen. XIX. — Chiropodomys. 



'No. 271. gliroides, Blj^ Sclater in his " Catalogue of Mam- 



malia in the Indian Museum, Cal- 

 cutta " records the loss of the type of gliroides, and that conse- 

 quently it is not possible to identif}'- that species. I propose 

 therefore to ignore that name and to use peguensis, Blyth.
