Skull much as in 7’. ferruginea, but the zygomatic vacuity 
reduced to a long narrow slit about 4°5 millim. long and only 
about 1 millim. high.

Head and body 185 millim. ; tail 162; hind foot 42°5

tema between i2 and & 4, between © and P-2 1:8, 
flab. Baram, N. Borneo. First collected by Mr. Hose 
other specimens since received from Mr. Everett. 
This handsome species is readily distinguishable from 
T. ferruginea and 1’, splendidula by its duller body-colour 
and the presence of a black dorsal stripe; from 7. tana by its 
smaller size and shorter muzzle; from 7’. dorsalis by its less 
* defined dorsal line, bushier tail, and heavier teeth; and from 
7. montana, described below, by its brilliantly rufous tail and 
coarsely grizzled back.

Tupaia montana, sp. n. 
Rather smaller than 7. ferruginea. Dark grizzled rufous 
above, with an indistinct black dorsal line from the withers 
to the rump, broadening out and almost indistinguishable 
over the loins. ‘Tail rather short ; above dull erizzled rufous, 
below more olivaceous yellow, the lateral hairs ringed ter- 
minally with black.

however, the first discoverer of the species.
