nearly white. The specimen measures 80 mm., and the teeth are 

 just coming through the gum. Above the tips of the two canines 

 are through, and below the tips of the first six teeth. 



From Miss Minnie Greeff I have obtained a mole from Van 

 Ehyn's Dorp which must be referred to C. asiatica, though differing 

 a little in colour from the southern specimens. It measures h. and 

 b. 90, and hind foot 11. The fur is slaty grey, lighter below, and 

 with the cheeks, side of the head and greater part of the upper lip 

 white. The amount of white is greater than I have hitherto seen 

 in any specimens of C. asiatica. The skull measures 23-5 in length, 

 and 18 in breadth. The specimen is of value as giving the 

 northerly limit of the range of C. asiatica. As it is now known to 

 occur at Van Ehyn's Dorp, and not to occur in Namaqualand, we 

 can assign very definite limits to its range.
