1864.] DR. J. E. GRAY ON THE VIVERRIDZ. 541 
Var. 1. Tip of tail white; white on face more extended :-— 
Paradoxurus jourdanii, Gray, Loudon’s Mag. N. H. i. 579, 1837, 
from Mus. Leyden. 
P. ogilbii, Fraser, Zool. Typica, t.; Temm. Esq. Zool. 120. 
P. leucocephalus, Gray, Voy. Samarang. (B.M.) 
P. philippensis (partly), Schinz, Syn. 387. 
Var. 2. Albino. 
Hab. Sumatra and Borneo (Mus. Leyden.). 
The lower and longest whiskers are white, and the upper ones 
(which are placed just above them) are black and more slender. 
The half-grown specimen, which J described as Paradoxurus leuco- 
cephalus, appears, on recomparison with the series of specimens, to be 
only a specimen with more white on the head than usual. The fur 
is in a bad state, the animal having been kept in confinement. The 
tip of the tail is white, as in the P. ogilbii of Fraser, which agrees 
with it in the whiteness of the head. 
** Skull rather longer ; brain-case slightly constricted in front ; 
nose rather elongate, narrower ; teeth small. Amblyodon. 
3. PAGUMA GRAYI (type), Bennett & Hodgson. B.M. 
Fur long and rigid, rather woolly, iron-grey, beneath paler ; base 
of ears and sides of nose browner ; tail elongate, flat at the base.

The spot on the side of the face, under the eye, is sometimes very 
indistinct. The blackish ends of the hairs of the back, when crowded 
together at the crease of the neck, and when brushed towards the 
middle of the back, give the appearance of a dark band or streak ; 
but there is no real band or streak in this species. 
Skull swollen. False grinders moderate, rather compressed, conical, 
blunt, without any internal process ; the flesh-tooth triangular, rather 
longer on the outer edge than the width of the front edge; the 
internal tubercles triangular, rather behind the front edge, inner side 
rather angular; tubercular grinders oblong, transverse, about as wide 
as the length of the outer edge, inner side narrower and rounded ; 
hinder tubercular very small, circular.
