 distally, none of them pure white.

The present is a still further eastward extension of the known 

 range of this species, Avhich had never been recorded out of "West 

 Africa until Dr. Emin sent home the two specimens of the typical 

 race from Monbuttu, referred to in the previous paper on his 

 Mammals '.

 specimens are unquestionably identical with the types, now in the 

 Museum.
