LXXVI. — List of a Third Collection of Mammah from 

 Panyam, N. JVigeria, presented by the Rev, G. T. Fo.c. 

 By Oldfield Thomas. 



(Published b}' permission of the Trustees of the British Museum.) 



The British Museum has received from the Rev. G. T. Fox 

 a third collection of mammals from the interesting locality in 

 N. Nigeria -where the two previous collections described in 

 the 'Annals' were obtained. But I regret to announce that 

 this will be the last that we shall owe to Mr, Fox, as he died 

 of fever early in this year, losing his life in the missionary 

 cause that he had so much at heart. As a collector he was 

 keen and entliusiastic, and we hoped to have many more 

 valuable contributions from him. 



Tlie present series contains several species additional to the 

 previous lists, and notably a good set of a new Dasyniys, 

 which lives in the streams like the British water-vole, and 

 which I have named after Mr. fiox as a final tribute to his 

 memory. 



All the specimens are from Panyam, on the plateau of the 

 same name ; elevation 4000'. 



1. Crocidura sp. (near soricoides, Murray).
