* According to Dr. Horsfield, M. nemorivagus is about one-third smaller than 
M. BANDICOTA. It inhabits the higher regions of Nipal. (Ind. Mus. Catal.^ 
Mamni., p. 141). Our Cinghalese specimens accord in dimensions with Mr. 
Hodgson's measurements, as also the Dimensions of Bengal individuals, as 
given by Buchanan Hamilton, MS. 
t At least Dr. Gray refers ratio ides to inuicus, Desm., but this indicus, apud 
Gray, would appear not to be the Nesokia ! Dr. Horsfield recognizes apart 
Nesokia Hardwickii, N. kok, and N. Griffithii, Ind. Mus. Catal., Mamm., 
p. 145. His Hardwickii is probably the adult, of which kok is the young !
