44 Mammals of Eastern Asia 
Miller's Mole, Euroscaptor grandis, from Szechwan (Mount 
Omei), 5000 feet, is much like klossi but is larger. The length 
of the head and body is 6 inches, tail % inch, hind foot %o inch. 
The Small-toothed Mole, Euroscaptor parvidens, from 
Annam is distinguished from klossi and micrura by its slender 
skull and small teeth and from longirostris by its much shorter 
tail. The length of the head and body is 5% inches, of the tail 
*4 inch, of the hind foot % inch. 
Temminck's Mole, Mogera wogura, differs from the Com- 
mon Moles by having one less tooth in each upper toothrow. 
The missing tooth is the canine. The color is somewhat variable 
— usually grayish brown above, yellowish brown beneath. The 
eyes are covered with skin. These Moles are inhabitants of 
Japan, and in Korea a race, M. w. coreana, is found. A slightly 
smaller race, hisidaris, found on Formosa, has been collected at 
6500 feet above sea-level. Two different species of Mogera are 
found in China, M. latonchei, which has an enormous range 
stretching from Fukien and northern Kwangtung westward to 
western Kwangsi and western Kweichow ; and M. hainana on 
the Island of Hainan. The measurements of M. latouchei are 
head and body 3% to 4% inches, tail % to % inch. M. liainana 
is larger, with shorter tail, the same dimensions being head and 
body 4% to 5% inches and tail % to % inch. A still larger 
species, M. robusta, occurs in Manchuria. 
The White-tailed Mole, Parascaptor, has gone a step far- 
ther than Mogera in reducing the number of its teeth; it has 
discarded an upper premolar on each side. P. leaciiriis, a native 
of the Khasia Hills (eastern Bengal), northern Burma, Yun- 
nan, Shan States, Laos, and Tenasserim, is smaller than the 
European Mole, the length of its head and body being about 
4*4 inches. The tail is shorter, % inch, although not so short as 
in Euroscaptor micrura, and is thickened or club-shaped at the 
end. The color of the front three-quarters of the body is blue- 
black, of the hind quarters brownish. The tail is thinly clad with
