Felis minuta Temrninck. 

 Java: Mount Salak near Buitenzorg; a young cf (257). 



Viverra. 

 Viverra tangalunga Gray. 

 Sumatra : I brought home a living specimen from Singkarah. 

 Celebes: In Pare-Pare, on the south-western peninsula of Celebes, 

 I saw a specimen in captivity. The owner told me, thafc 

 it was caught in the neighbourhood. 



Viverricula. 



Viverricula malaccensis Gmelin. 

 Java : Buitenzorg ; two young male specimens (269, 298) that I had 

 some months in conflnement. They were immediately very 

 tarne and followed us like dogs. 



Paradoxurus. 



Paradoxurus leucomystax Gray. 

 Sumatra : from mount Sago near Pajakombo , abouth 2000 Met. high ; 

 an adult cT (201). My hunter shot it , while it was sleeping 

 on the branch of a tree, abouth the middle of the day. 



Paradoxurus musanga Gray. 



Sumatra: Manindjau; skulls (174, 195). 

 Fort de Kock; skeleton (602). 



Java: Buitenzorg; skeleton (272). 



Saleyer: two young Q (541). 



Flores: Sikka; yourig c? (624) and old cT (625). 



P. musanga was previously not known from Flores, but it could be 

 expected there as it also lives in Timor. Neither do I find any indi- 

 cation, that it was found before in the Island Saleyer near Celebes. 

 The Saleyer-specimens are very dark, those from Flores, presented 

 to me by the catholic priest of Sikka , Mr. le Cocq d' Armand ville, have 

 the common ashy colour with dark stripes. The dark part of the skin 

 is used at Sikka, Wukur and Hokor on the South-Coast of Flores as 

 a band for supporting the pocket used by the male inhabitants. 



P. musanga has thus a farther distribution than Blanford ') gives it.
