11. Rattus edwardsi milleti, subsp. n. 



Above dark brown (betweeu bone-brown and clove-brown), 

 darkest dowu the median line, paler and greyer on the 

 limbs (dark hair-brown), and also on the sides, which are 

 grizzled Avith dull butt'; sides of ueck rather brighter, tinged 

 with buffy browu. 



Entire lower surface and inner sides of limbs sharply 

 margined white except for a broad hair-brown band across 

 the ankles of the iiind feet and the hair near the base of the 

 tail. 



Tail dark throughout above, paler below, but least so 

 proximally. Feet dark, the margins and digits pale. 

 Mammae 2 — 2 = 8. Pelage of the back composed of solt 

 hairs and slender flattened spines. 



Skull like that of the jNlalayan form R. e. cilialus (Bon- 

 hote), but with interparietal longer and less straight 

 anteriorly and bullae larger. 



Type. — Adult female (skin and skull) collected at Dalat, 

 Langbian Plateau, S. Annani, 5000 ft., on 11th April, 1018. 

 No. 33y3/CBK. 



Remarks. — At a casual glance the colour and pelage of this 

 animal suggest relationship with the bowersi group of rats 

 with ivory-coloured incisors. It has, however, nothing to 

 do with them, but is a remarkably distinct race of li.ednardsi, 

 other forms of which are cUiutu.s, mentioned above, and 

 setiger, Kobinson & Kloss, of Sumatra. 



(2sanied in honour of ^Monsieur F. Millet, who gave me

 Monsieur Millet for assistance and hospitality during my 

 visit to the Langbian Plateau.— C. B. K.)
