 that exhibited by specimens from Java or Sumatra. The light band 

 bordered with black, clearly to be seen behind and below the eye in 

 specimens from these islands , is very incb'stinct in the specimens from 

 Flores, and so are the markings on the back. Colour grey or red, lighter 

 on the belly; in red specimens the belly is of a yellowish colour.

 bius director of that Museum has been kind enough to compare our 

 specimen with the typical one , and has pronounced them to be identical.
