(females), hindfoot 8:7.9-2 cm (males), 8.9-5 cm (females), ear 4-6 cm (1 male), 4.4-2 cm (females); weight 2-3 kg (females). The coat color ranges from gray to ocherous yellow. The dark mid-dorsalline is discontinuous and there is no dorsal crest. The large black spots on the dorsal pelage run in longitudinal rows, with the top three rows being the most uniform. These spots become smaller and more randomly spaced towards the ventral pelage. The chest and throat have only a few small spots. The face has a dark mask and a pair of supraand subocular white spots. The tail has eight to twelve pale rings alternating with dark rings. The width of the pale rings relative to the dark rings in the middle of the tail is less than 20%; the tip ofthe tail is pale. The forelimbs and hindlimbs are boldly spotted. The forelegs are pale on the innermost side, with some scattered small spots, and dark gray above with small round spots. The inner hindlegs are dark gray, unspotted and have a grayish patch over the upper metatarsal region. The feet are dark. There is one pair of teats. The posterior chamber of the auditory bulla is inflated ventrally and has a continuous curve line on the external side. The premaxillary-frontal contact is present. The ratio between the inter-orbital constriction and frontal width is more than 1 £ 0-12. Dental formula: 13/3, C1/1,P 4/4, M 2/2 = 40.
