This is the last race which we shall have to consider ; it is 

 allied to the Tenasserim specimens, but the hairs of all the 

 dark stripes are tipped with brown. The four light stripes 

 are of equal size and intensity, but the subdorsal ones have a 

 slight tinge of pink. The underparts are ferruginous.
