SUS VITTATUS Miiller and Schlegel. 



1839-1844. (S'w.s viUatus Muller and Schlegel, Verhandel. over de natuurlijke 

 Geschiedenis der Nederl. overzeesche bezittingen, p. 173; Java. 



Nine specimens (skins with skulls) as follows: Simalur Island, 4; 

 Pulo Ba])i, 3; Pulo Tuangku, 2. For measurements see table, p. 446. 



It is possible that more than one form is represented by this series. . 

 The pig of Simalur Island is considerably smaller than that of Pulo ' 

 Babi; and that of Pulo Tuangku, judged by the skulls rather than by j 

 the external measurements, is intermediate in size, though near the i 

 Pulo Bal)i animal. In the absence of Javan material, however, itlj 

 seems unsafe to attempt to distinguish the insular races.
