The chief collecting in Siam was done in the Chiengmai region 350 miles north of Bangkok. The base camp for mountain collecting was at an altitude of 4300 ft. on Doi Intanon or Mt. Angka with additional collecting camps at about 5500, 6000 and 8075 ft. This third camp was at the summit of the highest mountain in Siam. There was another base camp at Chieng Dao at the foot of Mt. (Doi) Dao. In Indo-China, Wylie did his collecting in the open forest of Southern Annam about 40 miles from Ban Me Thouet. In North Borneo some collecting was done from Jesselton on the west coast, close to sea level. From this point Griswold made his in*" 1118° 50 300 Scale of Miles 6°N. 2 ~N Sketch map of Northern Borneo to show collecting localities of the Asiatic Primate Expedition (1937). ascent of Mount Kinabalu, the highest mountain in Malaysia.
