30. Microtus Johannes, Thos. 



Five specimens, 4 c^c^, 1 ?. Wu-tsai, 20 miles 

 W. of Ning-wu Fu, Shansi. 6,000 ft. (?) 



The type of this species was described 

 from the mountainous district west of K'o-lan 

 Chow, about 20 miles south-east of the present 

 locality. Owing to their close similarity it 

 was found impossible to separate the speci- 

 mens fi'om the two different localities, in 

 spite of the fact that one series was taken on 

 a plain and the other on the tops of high 

 mountains. 



81. Microtus pullus, Miller. 



Two specimens, l.<$, 1 ?. Mountains 50 miles 

 N.W. of T'ai-yiian Fu, Shansi. 5,500 ft. 



Though in dimensions of body and skull, 

 and in general shape, this vole closely re- 

 sembles the preceding species, M. Johannes, 

 its very much darker colour at once renders it 

 distinct. It was described by Mr. Miller as 

 new from specimens taken in the Chiao- 

 ch'eng Shan, some 50 miles south of the pre- 

 sent locality. It frequents the open glades 

 in the highest mountain regions.

Six specimens, 1 c?, 5 ??. Tabool, 100 miles 



N. of Kalgan, Mongolia. 4,000 ft. 

 This is a pale-coloured vole, about the same
