M. fece was discovered by the late L. Fea in the Kakhyen Hills, 

 east of Bhamo, Upper Burma. But the species extends further 

 east, as the British Museum possesses a specimen obtained by 

 Hr. Fruhstorfer in the Man-Son Mountains, Tonkin (altitude 

 3000-4000 feet) ; this specimen, in which the supraocular "horn" 

 is very feebly developed and vomerine teeth are absent, I had 

 first referred to L. carinense (Ann. & Mag. N. H. (7) xii. 1903, 

 p. 186).
