region on the eastern slopes of Kenia. It is thus perhaps the most common Shrew 
in the district mentioned. | 
It has also been found on Kilimanjaro, and a subspecies is described by THOMAS 
from Ruwenzori. 
Crocidura turba DOLLMAN. 
DoLLMAN: Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. Ser. 8 Vol. V. p. 176. 
This Shrew was collected as well on the acacia steppe south of Guaso Nyiri 
and at Luazomela and Lekiundu rivers as on Kenia in the forest at an altitude of 
2450 m. It is thus a rather common species. DOLLMAN has kindly compared some 
of my specimens »with the type specimen of C. turba and a long $åeries of turba» which 
recently has been received in British Museum from East Africa, and he has stated 
the correctness of my determination. 
C. turba resembles C. monax but the great number of long hair on the tail 
of the former makes it easy to recognize from the latter, in which the tail is »al- 
most bristleless> according to THOMAS. 
Crocidura hindei THOMAS.

A specimen of this Shrew was trapped at Juja farm "1 1911. 
Crocidura hildegarde&x THOMAS. 
THoMAs: Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. 1904, Ser. 7. Vol. XIV p. 240. 
A specimen of this small Shrew was caught at a native village Kazere one 
days march from Meru boma at the base of Kenia ””/s, and another at the village of 
Kutu south of Embu boma ”'/ 1911. This latter place is not very far north of the 
type locality, Fort Hall. A third specimen from Blue Post (”'/1), south of Fort Hall, 
is a little less brown, and the lateral gland is more pronounced. TI felt therefore 
rather uncertain about its identity but Mr. GUY DOLLMAN has kindly after com- 
parison ascertained this.
