1 male, 1 female, from Lem Ngop, S.E. Siam. 



I have not seen specimens of this squirrel from the type- 

 locality (Cochin-China), nor is Milne-Edwa.rds's description ac- 

 cessible to me, but Mr. Boilhote's remarks {loc. cit. supra) on 

 examples from Cochin-China and Annam appear to apply to the 

 individuals obtained in 8.E> Siam. 



The dark stripes are all grizzled with broAvn, the median black 

 one being divided down the centre by a grizzled brown line, and 

 the four light dorsal sttipes ai-e of equal breadth and distinctness,, 

 as stated by Mr. Bonhote ; but while the outer two are cream- 

 coloured, the inner pair are bufF-yellow and show none of the 

 pink tinge noted by him. The undei-parts are bufi'-yellow, not 

 ferruginous, but this may be a matter of terms. The white tufts 

 of the ears are black at their bases. 



Measurements-. — Ears, 13 mm. For other measurements see 

 table, p. 72. 



Another form of Tamibps fotind in Siain is T. novemlineatus 

 (Miller), which inhabits the Malay Peninsula, certainly as far 

 north as the Isthmus of Kra. Bonhote (P. Z. S. 1901, i. p. 54) has 

 described, under the name kongensis, animals obtained at 

 Raheng and Nan, but these appear to differ from the Tenas- 

 serim barhei by just the same characters as does novemlineattis, 

 so that it is doubtful whether they are really distinct from the 

 latter.

I must confess that I find these specimens somewhat difficult 

 to place. The onl}^ material available to me for comparison 

 consists of four examples of M. herdmorei herdmorei from Mar- 

 taban and Moulmein (Cat. Mamm. Indian Mus. specimens a, b, c, d) 

 and a series of thirteen from Bandon, Peninsular Siam, which 

 are apparently conspecific with those [cf. Robinson & Kloss, 

 Journ. F. M. S. Museums, vol. v. p. 121, 1915), all of which are 

 clearly distinguishable from the present series by the conspicuous- 

 ness of the median dorsal and upper lateral blackish lines and 

 somewhat smaller size.
