Somewhat smaller than the succeeding species ; general

the same colour behind the ear. Tail grizzled above and 
fulvous below, each hair being black with a fulvous end ; tip 
of the tail black. Feet fulvous.

Very similar to Se. pygerythrus, from which it differs only 
in its larger size and in the presence of a short dark stripe 
along either side between the limbs. The colour of the 
underparts is rather deeper in tone than in Se. seas

A certain amount of confusion seems to exist on the subject 
of the colour of the underparts, Mr. Sclater leading us to 
understand that the underparts of Se. pygerythrus and 
Sc. Blanfordi were of a “ bright red,” while Dr. Anderson, on 
the other hand, gives the colour as pale orange-yellow, which 
latter statement agrees with all the specimens I have ex- 
amined; but the latter states that the underparts of Se. Phayrei 
are orange-red, whereas all the specimens in the British Mu- 
seum are yellowish orange (about halfway between ‘ orange” 
and ‘ yellow-buff,” Ridgway).
