Distribution. — Ma lay Pen insula. 
Remarks. — I have seen no specimens of this species which has usu¬ 
ally been considered synonymous with the Bornean Tricky s Upura * 
Because of the general distinctness of mammals of the Malay Peninsula 
and those from Borneo, that view does not appear probable, and, 
both animals having been named, those names are here retained. It 
is possible, on the other hand, that the Sumatran Tricky s macrotis 
may be very close to the Malay Peninsula animal.

Color. — General color above a sort of drab-brown. The bases of 
the spines are whitish, which is the general color of the under parts 
owing to absence of dmh-browu tips of the spines. On the sides the 
color gradually passes from the almost complete dmb-brown of the 
upper parts lo the whitish of the belly. 
Shull and teeth. -These are well figured by Gunther." and need no 
detailed description here. 
Buff on’s Porc-fpicdc Malaca, I think he is in error in saying that the genus Tricky# 
is not known in Malacca, for it seems to have lieeu clearly recorded from the Malay 
Peninsula by Bonhote (Proc. Zool, Soc. London, 1900, p. 881) and by Jen tin k (Notes 
Leyden Museum, XVI, 1894, p. 207). If Ifydrix faneiodatu Shaw 4s a synonym of 
HyiUrix wacroura Lin incus, the species of Tricky# on the Malay Peninsula (if it is 
distinct from the Bornean and Sumatran animals, as is probable) has not yet received 
a valid name. Having iseen no specimens of Tricky# from the Malay Peninsula, I 
can not venture to state whether it is distinct from the two species already named or 
with which one it should lx* associated. Accordingly 1 have left the matter standing 
as originally written, but with this explanation.
