  While 
  having 
  much 
  similarity 
  in 
  color 
  and 
  markings 
  to 
  L. 
  

   matschie, 
  the 
  present 
  species 
  is 
  paler. 
  It 
  varies 
  also, 
  and 
  some 
  

   examples 
  exhibit 
  a 
  considerable 
  shade 
  of 
  yellow 
  on 
  the 
  upper 
  parts, 
  

   but 
  it 
  never 
  becomes 
  as 
  dark 
  as 
  L. 
  matschie. 
  The 
  type 
  of 
  L. 
  ellen- 
  

   becki 
  which 
  is 
  a 
  young 
  animal, 
  has 
  been 
  examined 
  and 
  compared 
  with 
  

   specimens 
  of 
  L. 
  hilgerti 
  in 
  the 
  Berlin 
  Museum 
  and 
  found 
  to 
  agree 
  

   with 
  some 
  of 
  them 
  in 
  every 
  particular. 
  L. 
  ellenbecki 
  will 
  therefore 
  

   become 
  a 
  synonym 
  of 
  the 
  present 
  species. 
  

  

  Mr. 
  Pocock 
  (1. 
  c.) 
  makes 
  this 
  a 
  subspecies 
  of 
  ellenbecki, 
  but 
  

   unfortunately 
  he 
  had 
  no 
  personal 
  knowledge 
  of 
  the 
  animal 
  described 
  

   by 
  Neumann 
  under 
  that 
  name.
