Though a large series of specimens is available from China, only 

 two adult males have been examined from the Himalayas. They are 

 certainly very close to if not identical with some of the Chinese speci- 

 mens in the same stage of wear, but the series is too small to decide 

 the status of P. f. sinae^ especially as I have examined no typical 

 specimens of the latter from Kansu. Rothschild ^- says the Yunnan 

 specimens do not differ from those from the Himalaj^as, and Bangs 

 and PetersJ^ who examined Kansu specimens, doubt the existence of 

 a northern race.
