NEW LEGGADA MICE FROM SIAM. 



63 



Remarks. This mouse is probably a race of Leggada 

 nitidula (Blyth), 1 with which species it seems to agree in colour and 

 in the possession of upper incisors about upright, or only very 

 slightly recurved, and somewhat similar supraorbital ridges: 2 but 

 it has the tail as much longer than that of L. n. popoeaS as the tail 

 of that form is longer that that of L. n. nitidula. It is also other- 

 wise larger than either.
