2. PtEROPUS VAMPYRUS MALACCENSIS. 



PteropHS vampynis malaccensis, K. Andersen, Ann. & Mag. 

 [at. Hist. (8) II, p. 363 (1902). 



A single immature example of this fruit-hat was obtained 

 at Gurun : it is a halt-grown individual with a forearm of 175 

 mm. only. 



3. Cynopterus brachyotis. 



Pachysoma brachyotis, S. Mull, Tyd. Nat. Gesch., V, pt. i 

 p. 146 (1838). 



2 Males, 15 Females. Gurun, Kedah. 



A large number of smaller fruit bats were obtained at 

 Gurun but those which were obviously immature were not 

 preserved. As shown by the external measurements given 

 below, they are undoubtedly examples of C. b. btachyotis. 

 Head and Body ... 89 — 95 



Ear from orifice ... 16 — 18. 



Forearm ... ... 60 — 65.5 



3rd Metacarpal ... 39 — 44.5 



Tibia ... ... 21.5 — 24.5 mm. 



4. Taphozous melanopogon, subsp. 



Taphozovus melanopogon, Temm. Mon. Mamm., II, p. 287, 

 p. 60, figs. 8, 9 (1835—41). 



14 Males, 13 Females. Gunong Kriang, Kedah. 



Gunong Kriang, 700 ft. high, is an isolated and precipitous 

 limestone mass standing in the flat Kedah plain some miles 

 north of Alor Star. It is penetrated by deep tunnel-like caves 

 and in its walls are many more of a shallower nature. These 

 latter are inhabited by large numbers of bats of this species 

 but no others were met with. 



These examples resemble all other specimens of melano- 

 pogon from the Malay Peninsula and adjacent islands but 

 appear to differ from the typical race in having paler fur and 

 wing-membranes which are almost white. 



5. Sciurus concolor.

A very typical example, showing no approach to Sc. 

 milleri, Robinson and Wroughton [Journ. F. M. S. Mus. IV, 

 p. 233 (191 1) ] from Trang, a state to the north of Kedah.
