Hab. River Laeeh at the foot of the Mishmee mountains,

* The habits of this species are fully described, but we want to know more of its specific characters, 

 t The form of the pectorals is not accurately represented in the figure. 



X Also at the foot of the Nipal mountains, where Mr. Hodgson appears to have found a specimen 

 now in the Asiatic Society's collection. In this, however, the lobes of the caudal are of equal 

 length. It is so like the succeeding variety that I have thought it unnecessary to figure it separately.
