cream-bufF and blackish brown, tho latter slightly in excess on nape, 

 but not forming a distinct median stripe. Upper surface of head and 

 face essentially lilve back. A faint, diffuse, pale streak over and in front 

 of eye. Sides of neck slightly paler than nape. Throat with the usual 

 dark and wliite bands, all of which are of approximately equal breadth. 

 The dark bands are darker than the neck, but not conspicuously so. 

 They are coarsely grizzled with buff' and blackish brown, the latter 

 color in excess. Collar like sides, therefore paler than longitudinal 

 throat bands. Chest, belly and inner side of legs white, the chest faintly 

 shaded with gray along median line. Outer surface of legs clear orange- 

 bufT, somewhat brighter than that of back. Tail white beneath, orange- 

 buft' faintly clouded with blackish brown above. 



Skull and teeth. — In size and general form the skull of TraguluK canes- 

 rens closely resembles that of T. nnpii. It is at once distinguishable, 

 however, by the larger audital bnllfe and much larger teeth. When the 

 skulls are viewed from behind, held so that the tips of the premaxil- 

 laries fall in line with the anterior rim of the foramen magnum the visi- 

 ble surface of each audital bulla is reduced in Tragiilux napu to a mere 

 rim much less extensive than that of the occipital condyle, while in T. 

 ranesccnit x\\(' bulla appears considerably larger than the condyle. The 

 actual difference in size is about as follows: Tragvlus naj^v ; greatest 

 length of bulla, 23: greatest width, 12.4: TragriluH canescens; greatest 

 length of bulla, 25: greatest width, 14. Though not different in form, 

 the teeth of Traguhni cnnescenx are uniformly larger than those of T. 

 ridj}!/, so that each toothrow is about 5 mm. longer.
