body, uniform duller brown, not grisled ; ears brown, the nape with 

 longer hairs, forming a broad short crest. 



Hab. Camboja. 



A single specimen. 



Browner than any other Indian Herpestes I have seen. 



Pteromys momoga? 



Hab. Camboja. 



One specimen. 



This species is very like Pteromys momoga, Temm. Faun. Japon. 

 Mam. t. 14. 



There are five specimens of a Squirrel in the collection ; they ap- 

 pear to be distinct from any we have before received ; but they oiFer 

 four very distinct varieties, and it is not easy to decide if the animal 

 may not itself be a local variety of some other Indian species. 



SciURUS SPLENDENS. 



All the specimens are bright red bay. 



Var. 1 . All over dark and very intense red bay, with a white spot 

 on each side of the base of the tail. Two specimens, nearly iden- 

 tical in colour and size. 



Var. 2. Top of the head and tail, like var. 1, dark and very intense 

 red bay ; side of the back, under sides of the body, and tip of the 

 tail paler red bay, without any white spot at the base of the tail. 

 A single specimen. 



Var. 3. Uniform pale bay, like the side of var. 2 ; tail and middle 

 of the back rather darker and brighter ; tail without pale tip or 

 white basal spot. A single specimen. 



Var. 4. Crown, middle of the back and tail dark intense red bay ; 

 throat, chest, and under side paler red bay, like vars. 2, 3 ; cheeks, 

 shoulders and thighs, and outsides of the fore and hind legs brown, 

 grisled with yellow rings on the hairs ; side of the body rather grey- 

 ish red. A single specimen. 



This last state would almost lead one to suppose that this Squirrel 

 may be only a variety of some other species.

 Hab. Camboja. 



Three specimens, one male and two females, very nearly alike in 

 size and colouring.
