ART. 1 MAMMALS FROM CHIXA HOWELL 73 



Ihe same subspecies and identical in every respect. The upper sur- 

 face of the tail of the Shanohai skin is black, which definitely places 

 both with the species tolm, and the character of pelao:e, length of foot, 

 and black ear markings corroborates the relationship. The anterior 

 ])art of the nasals of the type has been broken off, which obviates the 

 value of any observations upon this feature of the skull. The chief 

 character of differentiation is the more ochraceous coloration, ai- 

 already mentioned by G. M. Allen (1927). 



The affinity of the Suifu specimens are with this race, although 

 the two skins in good pelage are sufficiently darker to indicate that 

 they may be subspecificaUy distinct; but these are flat skins without 

 skulls. The soles of the feet are a veritable bright red. which may 

 be a stain. 



LEPUS TOLAI MANDSHURICUS Radde 



Leinis mandsliwicus Radde, lleise Snden Ost-Sibirien, 1862, p. 215 (Bureja- 

 Gebirge (Mounlains), eastern Sibtria). 



Specimen. — -One from near Imienpo, Manchuria. 



This race is much darker than tolai typicus because of the greater 

 number of black guard hairs. The suggestion of pink in the pelage 

 is ver}' characteristic. 



LEPUS GRAHAMI A. B. Howell 



Lepus grahami A. B. Howell, Proc. Biol. Soc. Wash., vol. 41, 1928, p. 143 

 (■ Ulongkong, south of Tatsieulu, Szechwan, China). 



S'pecwiens. — Ten from Szechwan : five from the type locality and 

 its vicinity, and five from near Sungpan. 



This large, dark, slaty, mountain hare is very striking but is 

 doubtless subspecifically related to L. coinus. 



Order ARTIODACTYLA 



Family SUIDAE 



Genus SUS Linnaeus 



In the classification of the Chinese pigs I follow Sowerby.^ For 

 his study he had a far greater number of skulls than skins, while in 

 the present representation there is a preponderance of skins.
