The specimen above described agrees fairly with Mr. 
Blanford’s description of M. sublimis (loc. cit.) ; only the tail 
is nearly an inch longer than in the only example known of 
that species, the type, a female obtained by the late Dr. 
Stoliczka at Tankse, west of the Pankong lake in Ladak, at 
an elevation of 13,000 feet. My specimen, which was ob- 
tained miles away from any habitation, is probably a male, 
and doubtless belongs to the species described by Mr. Blan- 
ford. Of the better-known Indian mice this species comes 
nearest to Mus urbanus, but is distinguished by its proportion- 
ally longer tail and much longer feet. The habits of the 
two species are very different. 
Lagomys macrotis, Gunther. 
A specimen obtained near Gilgit, in July, at an elevation 
of 7500 feet, measures :— 
Head and body 7:2 inches, nose to anterior margin of eye 
0-92, nose to ear-orifice 1°95, length of ear from orifice 1, hind 
foot from heel s. uw. 1°25, fore foot s. wu. 0°75, hair on middle of 
back 0-7. ; 
This example agrees fairly with the type of the species ; 
the forehead and crown are rufous. It differs from a specimen 
obtained in the Gilgit district in October (P.Z.S. 1881, 
p- 207) in the tips of all the hairs on the back being fulvous, 
and in not having a rufous gorget. 
Lagomys Roylet, Ogilby. 
A specimen of Lagomys from Deosai (12,000 feet), collected 
in July, is obviously distinct from the preceding species. 
Colour above greyish brown, much mixed with black on 
middle of back, and rufous on forehead and nape; sides of 
face and body rufous; lower surface whitish. The fur 
throughout is dark slate-grey, the tips beimg rufous on the 
forehead, nape, and sides of the body, and greyish white on 
the lower parts; on the back the hairs have fulvous-brown
