Sciurus beehei, Allen {Bull. Afner. Mus. Nat. Hist., XXX, p. 338 ; 

 1911) described from a single specimen without skull from Kuching, 

 Sarawak, is obviously this species. It is significant that Mr. Beebe also 

 obtained specimens of the true quinquestratus in the vicinity of 

 the type locality so that some transposition of labels has evidently 

 taken place.

 bably the specimen sent by Sir A. Phayre (then Captain) to Blyth and
