By far the commonest squirrel on the mountain and not 

 differing in any way from lowland animals: in no way 

 approaching our recently described S. /. gtmong from the 

 Bandon Kills [Journ. F.M.S. Mus., V. p. 119 (1914).] 



3. Epimys vociferans. 



Mus vociferans, Miller, Proc. Biol. Soc, Washington, xiii. 

 p. 198 (1900), pis iii and iv, fig. 3, 



2 Females. 



Only two examples of this generally common hill rat were 

 trapped. 



4. Epimys surifer. 



Mus surifer, Miller, Proc. Biol. Soc, Washington, xiii, p. 

 148 (1900), pi. V, fig. 4, a, b, c. 



2 Males, 2 Females. 



Four exa.nples of this, the commonest spiny rat in the 

 Peninsula, were obtained : the pelage of all is somewhat pale 

 and dull. 



5. Epimys cremoriventer. 



Mus creniorivenier, Miller, Proc. Biol. Soc. Washington, 

 xiii, p. 144 (1900), pi. V, fig. 2, a, b, c. 



I Male, I Female. 



This little rat has always been found sparsely distributed 

 in the mountains of the Peninsula and only two individuals 

 were obtained on the present occasion. 



6. Epimys asper. 



Mus asper, Miller, Proc. Biol. Soc. Washington, xiii, p. 

 145 (1900), pi. V, fig. 3, a, b, c. 



22 Males, 8 Females. 



This species was extremely common. It was found, here 

 as elsewhere, to vary considerably in brightness of colcnration, 

 the yellow tone of the upper surface ranging from bright 

 ochraceous-tawny to pale clay. The grey under surface is 

 sometimes suffused with ochraceous but this feature is, in no 

 way correlated with a brighter back. 



7. Epimys jalorensis. 



Mus jalorensis, Bonhote, Fasciculi Malaj'enses, Zoology, Pt. 

 I, p. 28 (1903), pi. ii, figs I and 2 ; pi. iv. fig. 4. 



3 Males, 2 Females. 



These are representatives of the common rattus of the 

 Malay subregion and though we have used for it the name 

 applied by Bonhote we doubt, when large series of Malayan 

 and Bornean animals are compared, that it will be considered 

 in any way distinct from the subspecies neglectus of that 

 island.
