 Both specimens are young, but I think there is no doubt but that thej^ 

 are bengalensis.

The Malay Porcu2)ine. 



(Synonymy in No. 16.) 



Two specimens (4230, 4281) collected at Sagaing by Major F. C. Owens

I use this name badius for the present, pending the result of an examina- 

 tion of this group on which Mr. Thomas is engaged.* The generic name 

 used is that created by him for all the small forms of Rhizoinys.

 2 from Lower Chindwin collected by G. W. Dawson, I.CS. ; all three 

 recorded in the Mt. Popa Report. 



(77) MuNTiAcus VAGINALIS, Bodd. 



The Bengal Rib-faced Deer. 



S 1, Hkamt $ 1, Tamanthe. 



In Report No. 2 a synonymy was given but the further material since 

 obtained has rendered possible a sorting out of the forms of the Indian 

 Muntjac. The type locality of vaginalis is ' Bengal ' and we still have 

 no topotype to guide us, but as Hodgson's rativa from Nepaul and the 

 present specimens are sufficiently alike I have presumed that both repre- 

 sent vaginalis. The colour contrast between vaginalis and the Dekhan 

 aureus on the one side and the Burmese grandicornis on the other is very 

 marked, both the latter are quite pale coloured while vaginalis is a dark 

 brown.
