while the spirit specimen from Moulmein, mentioned at the same 

 time, has already been generously presented to the National 

 Collection by him. 



6. Paradoxurus hermaphroditus, Pall. 



a. Wimpong, Thatoue. 

 As Mr. Blanford has shown (P.Z.S. 1885, p. 794), Pallas's P. 

 hermaphroditus should be referred to the common Malay Palm-civet, 

 which has hitherto been known either as F. musanga, Raff., or 

 I'.fasciatus, Gr. 



7. MuSTELA flavigula, Bodd. 



a. Mt. Nwa-la-boo, Tavoy, 7/4/78. b. Bankasun, 20/6/77. 



8. Gymnura rafflesi, Vig. and Horsf. 



a. Bankasun (Blanford, torn. cit. p. 150). 

 Its only known occurrence within British India. 



9. TUPAIA BELANGERI, Wagn. 



a-h. various localities, Tenasserim. 

 This is the T. peguana, of Mr. Blanford's list. It may generally 

 be distinguished from the next species by the presence of a well- 

 developed internal cusp on its second upper premolar. 



10. TUPAIA FERRXJGINEA, Raff. 



a. Bankasun, 27/4/77. b, c. Tenasserim. 



11. Pteropus medius, Temm. 



a. Amherst, near Moulmein. 

 This appears to be about as far south-eastwards as this species has 

 been recorded, its place further south being taken by Ft. edulis, 

 Geoffr. 



12. Rhinolophus trifoliatus, Temm. 



a, b. Mergui (Hume). 

 It is important to have additional localities for this rare species, 

 of which the exact range is by no means satisfactorily settled. 



13. Pteromys cineraceus, Bly. 



a, Wimpong, Thatone, 21/12/76. b. Kankaryit. 

 This species seems to be hardly more than a geographical race of 

 the well-known Indian Flying-squirrel (P. petaurista, L.). The 

 measurements of a were published by Mr. Blanford (1. c. p. 165). 



14. SciURUs BicoLOR, Sparrm. 



a, b. Thoungyah, 26 and 30/9/78 (Darling). e. Mergui, 

 10/1/79. d, €. Bankasun, 18/3/77 and 3/6/77. 

 No seasonal change is appreciable among the large series of this 

 species in the Tenasserim and Malayan collections.
