Norz.—In the collection sent by Dr. Dennys from Singapore, 
and described by Dr. Blanford (P. ZS. 1881, p. 215), occurs 
Eumeces chinensis; but as these specimens were from the Raffles 
Museum, and their locality not known, it probably was not caught 
in the Malayan countries, but brought from China.
