The immaturity of these two specimens prevents their satisfac-
tory determination ; they may be the young of D. deasyi.
EUCHOREUTES NASO, W. L. Sclater, P. Z. S. 1890, p. 610.
Nos. 93.11.5.6, 7 Sr 8. 4. Ak Langar on the Yarkand-Khotan Road, altitude 4,500 ft., 3rd July, 1898.
Native name, " Sarok Kuruk " (" Brown Tail ").
The original specimens of Euchoreutes nano, although known to be from Eastern or Chinese Turkestan, had no exact locality attached to them. It is satisfactory to have this deficiency supplied by Captain Deasy's specimens. The Ak Langar is a Rest-house. The specimens were obtained in the night, so that, although Captain .Deasy states that the animal was very common, he is unable to give any details as to its habits.
