COLLECTING EXPEDITION TO BATANG PADANG. 165 
been sent to the Royal Botanic Gardens, Calcutta, to be work- 
ed out, and the birds to the British Museum. I am informed 
by Mr. BOWDLER SHARPE that there are g or 10 new species 
amongst the collection, thus bringing up the number of new 
species from the mountains of Perak to 16. 
Mammals were very scarce, and did not number more than 
a dozen specimens. 
Of insects and other natural history objects, I made fairly 
good collections, and added much to the series of Sakai objects 
in the Museum as well as collecting others to send to the 
British Museum.
