This species is founded on two specimens which Dr. Annan- 

 dale had referred to a new species under the above name, and 

 which he has generously passed on to me for description. They 

 were obtained by Mr. and Mrs. Kemp in the Garo hills, Assam, 

 above Tura, at an altitude of 3,500 to 3,900 feet. The specimens 

 were captured leaping about in long grass.
