Zelotomys hildegardee (Tuomas).

A specimen of this interesting Rat was caught at Juja farm '%/1 1911. Its - 
tail is whitish almost all around. In another specimen from Ruiru river the tail is 
greyish above. 
The species was originally described on specimens from Machakos and Kitui. 
It is thus one of the endemic forms of East Africa s. str. 
Leggada bella Tuomas. 
Tuomas: Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. 1910, Ser. 8. Vol. V, p. 87. 
This little Mouse was trapped at Punda Melia **/; 1911. 
Leggada triton THomas. 
Tuomas: Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. 1909, Ser. 8, Vol. IV, p. 548. 
This dark little Mouse was first caught *°/s in three specimens at a place called 
Kazere situated outside the Kenia forest on partly cultivated ground, 2,125 m. above 
the sea. Two more specimens were trapped resp. in the upper forest region of Kenia 
at an altitude of 2,700 m., and a little lower down, or at an altitude of 2,450 m. 
At our first camp on the way back outside the forest at a place situated in the 
cultivated region not very far from Kutu and at an altitude of 2,000 m. four more 
specimens were trapped. These were rather young specimens with not worn molars, 
and the total length of their skulls was only about 21 mm. but the condylo-basal 
length from 19,5 to 20 mm. These measurements agree better with HELLER’s Leggada 
[triton] naivashe but I think this is dependent on the youth of the specimens. ‘Those 
from Kazere had worn teeth and were considerably larger with a condylobasal length 
of 21,2 to 21,7 mm. 
THOMAS compares this species especially with the western L. musculoides. 
Leggada triton murilla THomas. 
Tuomas: Ann. & Mag. Nat. 1910, Ser. 8, Vol. V, p. 91. 
A specimen caught at Blue Post Jan. 21 1911 is conspicuously paler than the 
Pigmy Mice trapped in the Kenia forests and at higher altitudes in the cultivated 
country so that I think it right to refer it to the subspecies murilla. The lower 
parts of this specimen is also more purely white than corresponding parts of the forest 
specimens. It is, however, probable that intergrading links may be found.
