This race of P3'gnij' striped squirrel differs from Tdinioi's liarhci 

 harhei (Blytli) of Tenasserim in being considerablj' paler in coloui-, and 

 links that form with Tainiups rodolphi (M -Edw.) of French Indo- 

 C'hina, etc., which, though agreeing in the colour of the undersurface, 

 is elsewhere paler still. 



T. ii. Iromjcnsis was desci'ibed from a Halieng specimen and with 

 it were identified examjiles from Nan. 



The present individual has the upper ground-colour pale gre}', 

 variably suffused with buff. There are four pale stripes on the back, 

 the outer pair (broader than the othei-s) running from the nose to the 

 rump, they are pale j'ellow-orange on the body and creani 

 on the neck and head ; the inner pair, starting from the shoulders, are 

 ochreous-buff. The median dark dorsal stripe is clear black, the 

 outer pair are black grizzled with ochraceous-buff. The ears are 

 edged with black posteriorly, and there are small black patches behind 

 them ; the outer surfaces are black, and at the tips are tufts of white 

 hair having black bases. The tail is annulated black and ochraceous- 

 buff, the hairs with whitish tips e.xcept at tlie extremity. The under-
