EAST AFRICAN MAMMALS. 739 



Mcljengo's, Mfcali's, and Taboi-a. Skins from Doduma and Tabora 

 refeiTed to F. frommi in my last notes have since been referred 

 to this race. 



Largest male 450. 0. 64. 35 nun. ; lai^gest female 470. 0. 60. 

 32 ram. Pregnant female with two minute foetuses at Gwao's 

 on 10. X. 21. Another also with two foetuses at IMdjengo's 

 on 24. X. 21, and two voiy large foetuses in a Tabora female on 

 18.xi.2I. 



Like all the other hyraces their stomachs contained finely 

 masticated, bright green leaves of the shrubs which grow about 

 the bases of the rocky kopjes where these creatures dwell. 



Fleas {Xeno2)sylla isiclis) were very numerous on the Mbulu 

 specimen, 



Procavia brijcei matsciiiei Neumann. 



Twenty specimens from Shanwa and Sagvu'o, where they are 

 veiy abundant on the rocks, and at the foi'mer place ' barked ' 

 loudly when approached. 



The liirgost male measiu'ed 530. 0. 75. 30 mm., and female 

 545. 0. 67. 30 mm. Three of the Shanwa females held miiuite 

 embryos on 20. x. 22. There were three in one and two in the 

 others. The stomnchs of those examined were clean. 



I had a young male alive for a fortnight, which fed readily on 

 green stufis and allowed itself to be stroked, but was very nervous 

 of shadows and of being suddenly approached. It succumbed to 

 a severe hailstorm, 



Procavia terricola sciiusteri Brauer. 



Mhelele in Kikami. 



Six specimens from the Uluguru Mts. Largest male 605. 0. 

 77. 35 mm. The largest female does not exceed the measure- 

 ments of the one recorded under Procavia sp. on p. 67 of my 

 earlier paper. The youngest female taken this time measured 

 240. 0. 45. 20 mm.
