2. Paradoxurus hermaphroditus Pall., subsp. 



1 9 imm, 12 Sept. 1919 [No. 2694/CBK]. Dr. Malcolm 

 Smith's collector. 



New for the islands ; but only represented by a quite young 

 female. On geographical grounds it might be P. h. cochinensis 

 Schwarz (Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. (8) VII, 1911; p. 635, Saigon)i ; 

 but, like another young female from Koh Chang Id., S. E. Siam 

 (vide P. Z. S. 1916, p. 33), the pale frontal band is broad. 



3. Tupaia glis dissimilis (Ellis). 



Sciurus dissimilis Ellis in Gray, Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. (3) 1860, 



V, p. 71 (Pulo Condore). 

 Tupaia dissimilis Lyon, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., 45, 1913, pp. 3,67, 



pi. 1 (Pulo Condore). 



1 6 ad., 1 6 subad.,1 9 ad., Pulo Condore, 12 - 15 Sept. 1919. 

 [Nos. 2695 - 7/CBK.] Dr. Malcolm Smith's collector. 



Number of mammae unknown : but almost certainly 3 - 3 = 6. 

 Upper parts a grizzle of blackish and ochraceous (more buffy on the 

 sides); tail similar but grizzle coarser. Sides of head and neck 

 with less black than the back ; upper and lower ej'elids clear buffy. 

 Outer sides of limbs like the body, but grizzling less distinct. 



Underparts buffy to ochraceous buff: under side of thighs 

 darker, ochraceous tawny. Under side of tail buffy and black, more 

 buffy down the median line. Neck stripes scarcely traceable, buff. 



On the whole the general colour of the upper parts is more 

 like T. g. belangeri (as represented by specimens from Siam : vide 

 Kloss, J. N. H. S. S. Ill, 1919, p. 355) than the more adjacent 

 T. g. cambodiana mihi (1. c, p. 357) in that the tail is less black 

 and more like the rump than the shoulders. It is more like the 

 former also in the possession of a more pronounced eye-ring. The 

 neck stripes are, however, less pronounced than in either, far less so 

 than in the former ; and the underparts are more richly coloured 



1 An unsatisfactory name, as Cochin is in Madras.
