Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Descriptive Account of the Mammals of Borneo The following Descriptive Account of the Mammals of Borneo, has been based mainly on the collections made by myself in the Baram District of Sarawak during the years from 1884 to 1892. The map appended to this Account indicates the localities at which these collections have been made by having their names underlined. In preparing these pages I have to acknowledge the valuable assistance I have received from the following authoritative works on the Mammals occurring in this part of the Malayan region: from Dr. John Anderson's Zoology of Western Yunnan; from Papers by Dr. Jentink in the well known Notes from the Leyden Museum; from Dr. Blanford's Fauna of British India, Dr. T. Horsfield's Researches in Java, and Dr. Dobson's Chiroptera. have also taken full advantage of the various writings of Drs. Muller and Schlegel. But to no one more than to Mr. Oldfield Thomas of the British Museum, am I indebted not only for the aid I have derived from his numerous papers in the Proceedings of the Zoological Society and in the Annals and Magazine of Natural History describing my own and other Bornean collections; but more than I can sufficiently acknowledge, to his personal assistance and advice so generously and heartily afforded at all times. It was on his suggestion indeed that I have been prevailed on to attempt the task of putting together for private circulation in collected from the information on the Mammalia of Borneo scattered through the various publications I have just named, to which I have added such personal observations on their habits as I have had the opportunity of making in the field. My object in undertaking this task - of whose many shortcomings I am very sensible - has been to supply a handy guide to the Mammals of the country in which I have spent so many years, in the hope that it may be of some assistance to those engaged in the study of the fauna of this large and interesting island. I cannot close these remarks without expressing how much I am indebted to my good friend Mr. A. H. Everett, not only for his having induced me to take up the investigation of the fauna of Borneo, but for the invariably kind manner in which he has assisted me throughout my researches.

Excerpt: ... present, Mr. Thomas believes this to be a valid geographical race, characteristic at least of Mount Kina Balu, if not of the whole of Borneo. It should be stated that Dr. F. A. Jentink, of the Leyden museum, where the type of H. suillus is preserved, believes it to be not worthy of separation from that animal. The true Hylomys suillus has been recorded from Burma, the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra and Java. FAMILY SORICIDE. GENUS CROCIDURA.
