All these specimens agree fairly well vvith the original description of Funam- 

 bulus {Lariscus) insignis diversus 1 as given by Thomas (tom. cit.) though they seem 

 to be brighter colonred. Lariscus i. diversus is said to differ from the true L. i. 

 insignis Cuv. from Sumatra in »having the fur between the black dorsal stripes 

 asby grey». In the present series the fur between the dorsal lines is grizzled greyish 

 and black (each individual hair liaving a blackish base and a greyish brown tip). 

 The general colouration of the sides of the body is ochraceous, becoming more 

 rufescent on the shoulders and haunches. Under parts of the body whitish, washed 

 with orange and becoming bright »orange chrome» (Ridgway pl. 2) on the inner side 

 of the hindlegs. On the lower throat there is a more or less complete »orange 

 chrome» gorget continuous with the orange colour of the shoulders. Tail annulated 

 black and orange tawny with whitish tips to the hairs.
