MCMXII Vertebra te Pale ontolo U.S. Ne a Thenry) Wt C0OnCl Viuseung PREEACE, This “Review of the Primates” is the result of a casual suggestion of my friend Frank M. Chapman, Esq., that I should “write a book on Monkeys.” The magnitude of the task—to compel all the described forms of the Primates to present themselves in their representatives for critical examination and comparison—was thoroughly appreciated, and also it was equally well understood that no Institution in the world contained a collection of these animals sufficiently large to permit a work like the present to be successfully completed by its aid alone. For over a century the Primates have been a subject of careful study by Naturalists of all lands, some most eminent Zoologists having devoted their investigations to them almost exclusively, and con- sequently the types of the many species were scattered throughout the various Museums of the world. To examine and compare these important examples was a necessity, for without a thorough knowledge of their characteristics no satisfactory progress toward the solution of their proper scientific standing could be reached. With representa- tives of the Primates, either from the eastern or western hemispheres, the Museums of the United States were but poorly provided, and a reli- ance for the material to prosecute the work was therefore to be placed upon the collections contained in European Museums and Zoological Gardens, and also in those of Eastern lands. Consequently the Author was obliged to visit all these various Institutions and study their collections. Twice were the Museums of England and the Continent visited, and many months passed each time examining the collections, and during a journey around the world, the Museums and Gardens of the far East were also visited and their collections care- ’ fully studied. The Author has seen and taken a description of nearly all the types of the Primates extant in the world to-day, and there is not a collection of these animals of any importance existing at the present time with which he is not familiar. The results of five years’ continuous study are therefore embodied in this work, and the conclusions given, no matter how they may dis- agree at times with the opinions expressed by other laborers in the same field, have in every case been reached only after careful and patient investigation. Even with the collections of the world at one’s service, material in numerous genera is still greatly lacking; and in some of these, iii iv PREFACE whose members are prone to almost indefinite individual variation, it is exceedingly doubtful if material will ever be gathered together sufficient to enable the question, of how many separate forms actually do exist, to be satisfactorily and definitely determined. A number of the types of the earlier describers, as well as some ‘of later date have disappeared, and on account of this misfortune the species they represented cannot be established, and this is especially unfortunate when the name given has, for many years, been adopted and applied to the evidently wrong animal. To correct such errors will probably be a slow process, as it is difficult to overcome a bad habit once formed. Again numerous examples that served for types, by the passing of the many years since they received their names, have so deteriorated—from the accumulation of dust, the loss of their fur, and fading of their colors from unwise exposure to light—as to be no longer recognizable or of any value as the special representative of some particular species, and such cases are particularly to be regretted when the original description was so brief as to convey but a faint idea of the appearance of the animal. The earlier writers seem to have depended mainly for the charac- ters of their species on the colors of the pelage and its distribution, and rarely considered the more important characters of the crania. Their limited material gave them no idea of the great variation, mainly individual, that existed in the coloring of the pelage among members of numerous genera, and so were misled into believing their examples represented more than one species, when it was only the individual eccentricities of a very variable form that they were unknowingly considering. Notwithstanding the vast accumulation of examples of the Pri- mates from all parts of the world in the last twenty years, a number of important facts cannot yet be settled, nor will they be until much additional material is received. In the recognition of apparently distinct forms, subspecies in only comparatively few cases have been accepted, because intermediates between what are recorded as species have rarely been found in this Order, and neither of two forms, no matter how closely they are evi- dently related can properly be deemed a subspecies, no intermediates having been observed. Also the Author has not seen his way to estab- lish a subspecies between the dweller of an island and one of the main- land, because, no communication being possible, the appearance of intermediates would seem most improbable. Not so however, with the dwellers of contiguous islands which may at one time have been por- PREFACE v tions of a larger island, or where communication between the islands may be, or at an earlier period, has been, possible. Under such condi- tions subspecific forms may be found; but on the mainland where there is no evidence of a gradation from one form to another, sub- species may not be accepted. The Author has dwelt upon this point, because it may occasion surprise to some who examine these volumes, to find how few sub- species comparatively have been accepted, and it seemed best to explain how these are regarded, and what, as the Author conceives it, is the only method by which they can be produced. In the present work there are altogether fifty-five complete monographs, with about six hundred species, for it was deemed best that every genus should be treated monographically. Of course these vary greatly in importance and in the number of their species, from one only, to over eighty, but the average would be about twelve to a genus. Each member of the Order has been treated after the following method. First a general review is held of the genus accepted, the type fixed and description given; then remarks are made on the appearance and general habits of the species the genus contains, followed by a review of the literature and the geographical distribution, and a key by means of which it is possible -that all the species of that particular genus may be recognized. Then each species is taken up in regular sequence, its synonymy given and the type locality and geographical distribution recorded; the present location of the type if existing, is then told, after which the peculiar characters of the species if it possesses any, are given, followed by such remarks as may be necessary, upon the relationship the species under review may have with some other in the genus; then a full description and measurements of the type if possible, concluding with an account of the habits so far as they may be unquestionably known. Of course it is not to be expected that a work such as this can be produced solely by the unaided efforts of one individual no matter how long or conscientiously he may labor, and many times he is obliged to rely upon the aid of his colleagues as the work progresses. Con- sequently during the past five years the Author has been assisted in many ways by a large number of his scientific friends. And here he may be permitted to express the great pleasure and gratification he felt at the universal courtesy and kindness he received at all the great Museums in Europe and the East, as well as in those of his own land, by the officers who had charge of the great collections. Every possible facility was given him and unrestricted access to the collections at all times ; and wherever the Author went, his simple request proved to be vi PREFACE an ‘open sesame’ to the treasures he desired to see, and everything was done to forward his investigations and make his visit profitable as well as agreeable. Among the large number therefore to whom the Author feels especially indebted beginning in his own land, he would first mention his distinguished friend, Professor Henry Fairfield Osborn, LL.D., D.Sc., Se.D., etc., President of the American Museum of Natural History, who from the beginning has taken a deep interest in this work, and through whose efforts solely its publication in the present attractive form has been made possible. The Author desires there- fore to express his lively appreciation of a scientific colleague’s aid in making accessible to mammalogists throughout the world a contri- bution, the result of much weary labor, towards the elucidation of the members of the most important Order in the Animal Kingdom. To Dr. J. A. Allen, Curator of Mammalogy and Ornithology, and Dr. W. K. Gregory, Assistant in Vertebrate Paleontology in the American Museum of Natural History, New York, the Author is indebted ; especially to Dr. W. K. Gregory who gave the most careful supervision to the publication of the work, as well as to the illustra- tions that so much enhance the value of the volumes, a labor that was by no means slight nor free from various difficulties. To Witmer’ Stone, Esq., Curator of Ornithology in the Philadelphia Academy of Natural Sciences; to G. S. Miller, Esq., Assistant Curator Department of Mammals, and N. Hollister, Esq., Assistant in the same Department of the United States National Museum the Author is under many obli- gations. And finally his thanks are due to F. J. V. Skiff, Esq., Director of the Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago, for the loan of skulls from that Institution. In England he would express his great obligation to Oldfield Thomas, Esq., Head of the Department of Mammals in the British Museum, where the collection of the Primates, regarding it in a general sense, is probably the finest and most complete in the world, the Author was permitted to work as if it were his personal property, Mr. Thomas only insisting that all novelties discovered should be described by the Author, and not as would naturally be expected, by the Head of the Department. Also to Guy Dollman, Esq., Assistant in Mammalogy in the same Institution, who aided the writer in many ways, and whose intimate knowledge of the collection and especially the location of the specimens by which much time was saved, was of the greatest advantage. Also to R. Lydekker, Esq., who permitted the removal from the cases of many mounted specimens, all of which were in his PREFACE vii keeping. In Paris, Monsieur le Docteur E. L. Trouessart, in whose charge is the magnificent collection of Mammals in the National Museum of the Jardin des Plantes, assisted the Author by every means in his power, and placed at his disposal that wonderful collection of the Primates which contains so many of the types of the old Authors, an intimate knowledge of which is necessary for the determination of the species they represent. In the great Museum at Leyden, Holland, so rich in specimens of the Lemuroidea and examples of other Pri- mates from the islands of the Eastern Archipelago, the Director, Dr. F. A. Jentink, and in his absence Administrator Vesteroon Wulver- horst made the Author’s labors in the Institution easy and pleasant. In Berlin, Herr Paul Matschie, Curator of Mammalogy, placed the grand collection of Primates so rich in examples of African species especially of Chimpanzees, Gorillas, Guenons, (Lasiopyca) and Coto- BUS or Guerezas, at the Author’s service, and aided him in every way possible. Also to Herr O. Neumann for information concerning the new species of monkeys obtained by him in East Africa and which were deposited in the Museum. The collection of Chimpanzees in this Institution is the largest in the world, and exhibits the wonderful indi- vidual variation that exists in the skulls and coloring of the skins of these apes; variations that serve more to perplex than to enlighten the observer on the mystery of species, and what really constitutes such a rank. In Dresden the Author’s thanks are due to Dr. A. Jacobi, the Director of the Museum, who aided him in becoming familiar with certain important types in the collection under his charge; and in the splendid Museum in Vienna, to the Director Dr. F. Steindachner, and custodian Dr. L. R. Lorenz, the Author is greatly indebted for many attentions and assistance in examining the collection which comprises the examples procured by Natterer during his sojourn in Brazil, as well as important specimens of the Gorilla procured by Du Chaillu in the Gaboon, West Africa. To Professor Dr. R. Hertwig, Director; Dr. W. Leizewitz and Dr. C. Hellmayer, Custodians of the Zoological Museum, Munich, in the collection of which are contained Spix’s types, and a very large number of examples of the crania of Bornean Ourangs obtained by Selenka, the Author is under many obligations for their courtesy dur- ing his sojourn in their city. In Frankfort-on-the-Main, by the cour- tesy of the Acting Director, Dr. Drevermann of the Senckenbergian Museum, the Author was enabled to examine the skins and skeletons of PSEUDOGORILLA MAYEMA? which, from the disappearance of the type, are the only specimens known in Europe at the pfesent time. viii PRERAGCE In Calcutta, Dr. N. Annandale, the Superintendent of the Natural History Section of the Indian Museum, unfortunately was absent in Burma, but access to the collections was afforded, and every facility for inspecting the types of Blyth and other of the earlier Indian Naturalists, which still survived. In the various Zoological Gardens of Europe and the East many interesting and valuable species were seen, and in the Zoological Gardens at Antwerp was discovered the handsome Monkey which the Director, M. |’Hoest, kindly permitted the Author to describe under the name of C. 1nsicnis. In the Gardens at Cairo, Egypt, under the pilotage of his friend Captain Flower, the Director, several specimens of the rare monkeys of the genus ERYTHROCEBUS were shown to the writer and descriptions taken. It was the skins of these same animals that, some eighteen months later in the British Museum, served the Author as the types for two new species. In the Calcutta Gardens were some fine examples of Hyto- BATES HOOLOCK and the Author’s ears were deafened by their powerful voices; and also a splendid specimen of the somewhat rare PITHECUS ANDAMANENSIS was seen; and in the Zoological Gardens of Kyoto, Japan, were numerous living examples of the peculiar Japanese species P. FuSCATUS, and one very fine adult male Macus ocHREaTUS. The Author also desires to express his thanks to Mr. R. I. Pocock, Super- intendent of the Gardens of the Zoological Society in Regent’s Park, London, for his assistance in examining the Primates under his charge. As it was not possible to assemble in one locality all the material it was desirable to employ for ilustrating the work, photographs of the crania had to be taken in different places. Those of the crania of PSEUDOGORILLA MAYEMA? were most kindly sent to the Author by Dr. O. zur Strassen, Director of the Senckenbergian Museum at Frankfort-on-the-Main; those of the Ourang crania were executed at the Zoological Museum in Munich; those of GorILLA GORILLA, G. g. jacobi and G. g. matschie, from the crania in the Berlin Museum. A certain number were also obtained from the American Museum of Natural History, the United States National Museum, the Field Mu- seum of Natural History, Chicago, the Philadelphia Academy of Sciences, and especially the British Museum. The Author cannot refrain from calling attention to the illustra- tions produced by the methods and greatly improved instruments invented by the Special Photographer of the American Museum, Mr. Abram E. Anderson, which for clearness and perfection of detail, have possibly not been heretofore equalled. Mr. Anderson was sent to London expressly to photograph the crania in the British Museum, PREFACE ix and the illustrations given in the plates exhibit faithfully the particular characteristics of the genera and subgenera. Those skulls which are lacking are fortunately very few. The colored illustrations have been selected from those published in the Proceedings of the Zoological Society of London, chiefly by the great artist, my friend the late Joseph Wolf, and, through the kindness of the Council of the Society, it is permitted to reproduce them in this work. Those of the different species from life were taken by Mr. Lewis Medland, F.Z.S., of London, and certain excellent figures taken by Mr. E. L. Sanborn from animals living in the menagerie of the New York Zoological Society, and presented by the Trustees for this work. Measurements of the Primates, such as those confined to the dimensions of the skin removed from the body, are of comparatively little value as there is probably considerable difference in size between the average stuffed specimen and the living animal. But those given of the crania are reliable and important, and not subject to variation after the death of their owners. Body measurements in these volumes, unless followed by (Collector), are taken from the dried skins, and are _ always given in millimetres. Those of the hands and feet, as the skin of these members usually contains the bones, are reliable for length, but the figures given for dimensions of the body and tail can, in the majority of cases, only be regarded as approximate. Mammals, unlike birds, vary greatly in their dimensions even among examples of the same species, and therefore, equal importance, when taken from the skin, cannot be attached to them. When a species in this work is mentioned, the name adopted is printed in capital letters, but in italics for subspecies and synoptical names. Measurements are always given in millimetres. All the species and races known to the Author that have been described prior to June lst, 1912, are included in the three volumes. After the date mentioned, the advanced state of the press work did not permit of any additions, except in an Appendix to the third volume. June 1st, 1912. DiGABi INTRODUCTION. The Primates, which is the first of the Linnean Orders of the Mammalia, was originally composed of four genera Homo, Sim1a, Lemur and VESPERTILIO, Man, Monkeys, Lemurs and Bats. The last has been dropped by general consent, and the Order as now con- stituted combines the Bimana and Quadrumana. Some Naturalists have contended that the Lemurs should be placed in a separate Order, and my friend the late Prof. A. Milne- Edwards enumerates the following characters as justifying this view: The bell-shaped, diffused and non-deciduate placenta, vast size of the allantois, uncovered condition of the cerebellum, cranial structure, inferior incisors, and structure of the extremities, (developed pollux, and discoidal terminations of the fingers). While admitting the importance of these characters, *St. George Mivart has made some critical remarks regarding the decision of Prof. A. Milne-Edwards, and fairly well establishes the fact that the better course would be to leave the LEmurommEA as a Suborder of the Pri- mates as “there can be no doubt that Man-Apes, (including Baboons and Monkeys), and Half-Apes together constitute a group capable of convenient and very distinct Zoological definition,’ and he defines the group as follows: “Unguiculate, claviculate placental mammals, with orbits encircled by bone; three kinds of teeth, at least at one time of life; brain always with a posterior lobe and calcarine fissure; the inner- most digits of at least one pair of extremities opposable; hallux with a flat nail or none; a well-developed cecum; penis pendulous; testes scrotal; always two pectoral mamme.” The Order Primates then comprises two Suborders LEMUROIDEA and ANTHROPOIDEA. The first contains the singular nocturnal animals known as Lemurs which are distinguished from the members of the other Suborder by the following characters: Orbit opening into the temporal fossa beneath the postorbital bar, (Tarsius excepted). The lachrymal foramen situated outside the orbital margin. The second digit of the hand may be merely a rudi- ment, but the same digit of the foot has a long pointed claw. The cerebrum does not overlap the cerebellum, and the hemispheres have *Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1873, p. 504. Xi xii INTRODUCTION few convolutions. Posterior cornu of lateral ventricle very small; pollux large; posterior cornu of hyoid shorter than anterior; clitoris perforated by the urethra; uterus two-horned; placenta bell-shaped, diffused, non-deciduate; allantois very large; transverse portion of colon convoluted on itself. Abdominal mammz sometimes present. The LEmMuRoOIDEA contains three Families, the first two aberrant; DAUBENTONIIDZ with its single species the curious Aye-Aye, and Tarsiip2, for a long time supposed to have also a single species, but several additional ones have been lately recognized. The third Family is Nycticinip# with four Subfamilies, Loristnz, the Slow Lemurs with four genera: Loris with two species; NycriceBus with eleven species; ARCTOCEBUS with two species; and PeERopictTicus with five species. The last genus, PEropicticus, for over two hundred years was represented by only one species, Bosman’s Potto, discovered by that traveller in 1705; but within a brief period no less than four others have been described, showing how easy it is to overlook distinct forms among these nocturnal animals, even though their habitats had been often penetrated by zealous Naturalists eager to make known the creatures that had heretofore escaped all research. In this same Sub- family is the genus ArcToceBus with its single species from Old Calabar, remarkable for its strongly flexed fingers, which require considerable force to extend them, and when this is taken away they at once become flexed again. The second Subfamily is GALaciIn&, the Bush Babys, with one genus and twenty-three species and six sub- species, followed by LEMuRIN#, the true Lemurs, with seven genera and thirty-eight species. The last Subfamily is INnDRIsIN# with three genera including the Woolly Lemur, Safakas, and Indris, having in all five species and five subspecies. While Madagascar alone possesses the Aye-Aye and the species of the Subfamilies LEmurRIN2 and INpDRISIN®, none of those con- tained in GALAGIN& are found on that island but belong to the near-by African Continent. The Tarsier are natives of the islands of the Indo- Malayan Archipelago and the Philippines, while the Slow Lemurs (LorisIn#) are met with in the southern part of the Indian Peninsula and the Island of Ceylon. The second Suborder, ANTHROPOIDEA, is distinguished from LEMUROIDEA by its members having the orbit separated from the temporal fossa by a bone which is united to the postorbital bar; and the lachrymal foramen is inside the orbital margin. The second digit of the hand is well developed, and the same digit of the foot has usually a flat nail, except in CALLITRICHIDA. The cerebrum almost completely INTRODUCTION xiii covers the cerebellum, and the hemispheres are considerably con- voluted. Placenta deciduate, discoidal. Allantois small, uterus not two-horned, anterior cornu of the hyoid shorter than the posterior, no abdominal mamme present, and the transverse portion of the colon not convoluted. This great Suborder, containing, as it does, all the existing Apes, Baboons and Monkeys, is divided into two groups: Ist, the PLatyr- RHINE, those species having the nose flat, septum wide and the nostrils directed outward, and embracing all the Monkeys of the New World; and 2nd, the CRATARRHINE, having the nose narrow, nostrils directed downward and the septum narrow, including all the species of the Old World. . As may well be imagined the variations in size to be witnessed among the members of this Suborder are very great, the extremes being the Gorilla and the small, delicate Marmoset or Titi. And with the difference in size, there is also great variety in the shape of head and body, and length of limbs and tail. This last appendage is entirely absent in the great Apes of the Families Hytopatipz and Poncipz; is of varying length from a mere knob, to longer than head and body in PirHecus; much longer than head and body in many species of Lasiopyca and PyGaTHRIX, and nearly three times the body’s length in ATELEUS. The heads of the Primates also are remarkable for their many shapes from the round head of ATELEvs, the occipital protruding skull of Satmiri, the almost human braincase of Pan, to the narrow high-crested crania of GorILLA and Ponco. The rostrum also exhibits many shapes producing conspicuous differences in the physiognomy of the many species, the extremes perhaps being the nearly flat-faced members of the CeBip# and the greatly lengthened muzzle of many of the Baboons as P. cyNocEPHALUs and P. spHINX, the latter exhibiting a rostrum covered with prominent ridges, and decorated with brilliant and highly contrasted colors. Many of the Lasiopycipz have ischiatic callosities, some brilliantly colored, and these at certain seasons become enormously developed covering not only the buttocks, but also extend- ing on to the tail which is greatly swollen. However attractive this may be to Baboons, to human eyes such exhibitions are repellent. The nose, save in one exceptional case, is not a very prominent member among the Primates, although, as in Man, it has many shapes, from the aquiline in HyLoBaTEs, most pronounced in H. Hootock, the retroussé nose of RHINOPITHECUS, and the extraordinarily lengthened member of Nasatis. The limbs of the Primates show great diversity when compared between distinct species, or between the fore and hind limbs xiv INTRODUCTION of one individual. Thus we have the rather short stout limbs of equal length in PirHecus, the lengthened slender limbs of ATELEUs, the long arms and short legs of HyLtopates and SyMPHALANGUS, and carried to an extreme, considering the difference in size, in Ponco, where arms and hands reach nearly to the ankles when the animal is in an erect position. All kinds of texture characterize the pelage of the Primates, from velvety softness to one that is coarse and harsh. The hair assumes various arrangements, sometimes forming coronal or occipital crests, occasionally both, or fringing the face with obtrusive whiskers, or projecting over the forehead like the peak of a cap. Long curled moustaches are rarely present, as in a species of LEONTOCEBUS, exhibiting a remarkable growth. In many species the hair of the head is short and compact, sometimes with horn-like erections over the forehead, or on the sides of the head as in CeBus, while in one species PITHECUS ALBIBARBATUS, the entire face is surrounded and the head covered by long hair in the semblance of a huge wig. On the body the hair is often long over the shoulders forming a mantle, and in other cases falls from the sides or over the rump in long graceful fringes as in most of the black species of Cotopus. The tail as a rule is covered by short hair, but the end is sometimes tufted as in RHINo- PITHECUS and CoLosus, and these tufts or tassels in some species of the last genus are greatly enlarged, equal in one species to one third the length of the tail. Only one species has a bare tail with end tufted SIMIAS CONCOLOR, an extraordinary animal. All colors are shown in the different pelages many of vivid and contrasting hues, and while some one member of nearly all the genera has bright coloring, probably LasiopyGA, embracing as it does such a large number of species, con- tains more highly colored members than any other genus of the Pri- mates. Beards are not infrequently met with, in fact in ALouattTa this appendage to the face of the species is rather characteristic of the genus; and in all the Families, save Poncip, the hairs of the arms are directed towards the wrist, but in the members of that Family the hairs of arm and forearm grow in opposite directions the first down- ward and the latter upward meeting at the elbow, and as it is supposed these great Apes usually sit with their arms crossed, Darwin imagined that this peculiar arrangement of the hair was to permit the rain to run off at the elbow. Ears of the Primates are well developed and pointed, but the lobe is absent, the Gorilla alone having it present in a rudimentary condition. The voice of the Apes is described in the Gorilla as a roar, but in the Chimpanzee as a gruff bark-like tone. INTRODUCTION xv Some of the small Monkeys of the New World emit a whistling note, often plaintive, but the most wonderful voices-are those possessed by the species of ALOUATTA in South America, and of Hytopates of the eastern hemisphere. In these the throat is large and thick and the larynx greatly developed. The basihyal is much enlarged and is ex- panded into a bony capsule which is lined by a continuation of the thyroid sac, and this peculiar formation enables the animal to produce a volume of sound that can be carried, it has been estimated, for a distance of three miles. : The brain of the great Apes is slightly more than half the size of that of Man. The Gorilla, like all of the Quadrumana, has the brain fully developed before the permanent set of teeth are completed. At that period the animal has not, of course, its full stature, and the skull continues to grow with the animal, but the brain does not, the skull becoming heavier and thicker in bone with broader and longer crest, but the brain itself is stationary. . *““The relative size of the brain varies inversely with the size of the whole body, but this is the case with warm-blooded vertebrates generally. The extreme length of the -cerebrum never exceeds, as it does in Man, two and a quarter times the length of the basi-cranial axis. The proportions borne by the brain to its nerves are less in the Apes than in Man as also is that borne by the cerebrum to the cerebellum. In general structure and form the brain of Apes greatly resembles that of Man. Each half of the cerebrum contains a tri-radiate lateral ventricle, and though in some _Lastopycipz the posterior cornu is relatively shorter than in Man, it again becomes elongated in the CeBip#, and in many of the latter it is actually longer relatively than it is in Man. The posterior lobes of the cerebrum are almost always so much developed as to cover over the cerebellum, the only exceptions being the strangely different forms Mycetes, (AtouaTTa), and Hytospates, (SyMPHALANGUS), SYNDAC- tTyLus. In the latter the cerebellum is slightly uncovered, but it is so considerably in the former. In Chrysothrix, (Saimirt), the posterior lobes are much more largely developed relatively than they are in Man. The cerebrum has almost always a convoluted external surface. In this group, however, as in mammals generally, a much convoluted cerebrum is correlated with a considerable absolute bulk of body. Thus in Hapale, (CALLITHRIX), (and there only), we find the cere- brum quite smooth, the only groove being that which represents the Sylvian fissure. In Simia, (Ponco), and GoriLta, and Anthropo- *St. George Mivart, Encycl. Britan., 9th Ed., Article Ape. xvi INTRODUCTION pithecus, (Pan), on the contrary, it is very richly convoluted. A hippocampus minor is present in all Apes, and in some of the CeBip# it is much larger relatively than it is in Man, and is absolutely larger than the hippocampus major. Of all Apes the Ourang has a brain which is most like that of Man; indeed it may be said to be like Man’s in all respects, save that it is much inferior in size and weight, and that the cerebrum is more symmetrically convoluted and less com- plicated with secondary and tertiary convolutions. If the brain of Simia, (Ponco), be compared with that of GoriLtta, and Anthropo- pithecus, (Pan), we find the height of the cerebrum in front greater in proportion in the former than in the latter; also the bridging convolutions, though small, are still distinguishable, while they are absent in the Chimpanzee. Nevertheless the character cannot be of much importance since it reappears in ATELES, (!) while two kinds of the genus Cesus (so closely allied as to have been sometimes treated as one species) differ strangely from each other in this respect. The corpus callosum in Apes generally, does not extend so far back as in Man, and it is very short in Pirnecia. In the Ourang and Chim- panzee there are, as in Man, two corpora albicantia, while in the lower Monkeys there is but one. The vermis of the cerebellum gives off a small lobule, which is received into a special fossa of the petrous bone. Certain prominences of the medulla oblongata, termed corpora trapezoidea, which are found in the lower mammals, begin to make their appearance in the CeBipz.” The number of pairs of ribs varies considerably among the genera of the Primates. The GoritLta and Pan have thirteen; the OURANG twelve same as Man;-Hytopates thirteen, but sometimes sixteen (Flower and Lydekker) ; CoLosus twelve; PycaTtHrix and CERCOCE- BUS twelve, sometimes thirteen; LAsIopyGA and EryTHROCEBUS twelve; PITHECUS twelve, sometimes thirteen, (P.

The Apes and Monkeys of the eastern hemisphere have thirty-two teeth, the same as in Man, but the Primates of the western hemisphere, excepting those of the Family CALLITRICHID# which also have thirty- two, have thirty-six, the excess being two pairs of premolars, one pair each in the upper and lower jaws. The canines in the males of all Primates are large and extend beyond the tooth rows, and are separated from the incisors by a diastema. The ANTHROPOIDEA have been divided by Authors into five Families, CALLITRICHIDZ, (usually designated as Hapalide), CeBipz, Cercopithecide, (Lasiopyez), Simiide (Poncipz of this work) and Homonide. To these in the present work has been added Hyto- BATID& comprising the Gibbons, which on account of their structure and mode of life seem more properly separated from, than united with, the great Apes. The Gibbons are the only Apes that habitually walk in an upright posture. The Monkeys of the New World, excepting those of the genus Cacajao, differ from all others, besides the number of the teeth in having more or less prehensile tails, this member being frequently bare beneath for a greater or less space at the tip, forming a grasping surface and preventing slipping; and the members of the genus ATELEUS are so expert with this organ as to make it serve the purpose of a fifth hand, not only for holding on to the limbs of trees, even suspending the animal without any other support, but often for con- veying food to the mouth. Members of other genera, as Bracuy- TELEUS, ALOUATTA, LAGOTHRIX, CEBUS, etc., are provided with pre- hensile tails but not all have a bare surface beneath at the tip, consequently the grasp is much less firm and secure, and their dexterity in the use of this organ much less. The species of Cacayao have very short tails of no use to their owners either to assist them in their various movements, or for adornment. There is much difference in size among the American Monkeys from the small Squirrel Monkey (Sartmirt) and the Douroucouli (Aotus), to the Howlers (Atovatta) the largest species in the New World. These last are remarkable for the great development of the mandible especially of the angle and ascending ramus, particularly xviii INT ROD UGE OW noticeable in the male, and is designed to protect and enclose the vocal organs which are of very great size. The shape of body and the manner in which the limbs are pro- portioned to it, vary to a considerable degree in these American Monkeys, and it would be difficult to find a greater contrast than the slender, slim-waisted body, and long, attenuated limbs of ATELEUS covered with smooth straight hair, and the thick-set, robust body, moderately long, stout limbs, and woolly coat of ALoUATTA. The genus with the largest number of species in the New World is CEBUS containing the well known Capuchin Monkeys, remarkable for their restless, mischievous dispositions, and the wonderful diversity they exhibit in the coloring of their coats. No American Monkey possesses either cheek pouches or callosities, nor is the external auditory meatus ever present. The species of the CRATARRHINE group are very different in appear- ance from the Monkeys of the New World. The limbs are sometimes of equal length, but generally the legs are longer than the arms except in the great Apes whose arms are invariably longer than the legs. The thumb when present is opposable to the fingers, as is also the great toe to the digits of the foot, and is always shorter than the other toes. The tails vary in length from a mere knob to one exceeding the head and body. Many of the species possess cheek pouches, and callosities are also present in many, sometimes of large dimensions and colored with the most brilliant hues. The Family Lasiopyeip%, to which precedence is given in the arrangement of the Suborder, contains the Baboon, Guenons, Langurs, Guerezas, etc., in fact all the Old World species of ANTHROPOIDEA except the Man-like Apes of the Families Ponciip# and HyLopaTip&. The Baboons, which come first in the arrangement of the Families are, besides other physical traits, characterized by an elongate muzzle, which in one species at least is decorated by brilliant coloring, (P. SPHINX Linn.). The limbs are nearly equal, but the tails are very variable in length and in the density of their hairy covering. The canine teeth are very long, in some cases prodigiously so, and capable of inflicting a wound as serious as that of almost any dagger. The cheek pouches, in all species that have them, are constructed of folds of skin which expand when food is forced into them, contracting again when emptied and then giving no indication of their presence. These pouches, being placed on the outer side of the jaw, are no hindrance INTRODUCTION xix to the mastication of any food, and are employed mainly for the storage of such edibles as the animal does not desire to consume at the moment. These receptacles even when full are no obstruction to the voice. Besides these pouches large air sacs are present in the neck. The species of the two genera Macus and CynopiTHEcus, although ranged among the Baboons are generally known as Apes, probably on account of the practical absence of a tail, resembling, as they do, in this respect, the great Man-like Apes. The coat of the Baboon varies considerably in texture from short silk-like hairs to almost a woolly fur observed in those inhabiting a cold clime. The Mangabeys of the genus CErco- CEBUS, in some respects, are intermediate between the true Baboons (Papio), and the Guenons (PycaTHrIx). They have no laryngeal sacs, but possess the posterior fifth cusp in the last molar of each lower jaw. Their form is more slender than that of the Baboons, resembling - the Guenons’, and like them they have long tails, but the often brilliant coloring of the Guenon is not seen in the coat of the Mangabey. The genus RHINOSTIGMA contains but one species remarkable for its peculiar physiognomy ; the long white stripe from the forehead over the nose to the upper lip, and the presence of a fifth posterior cusp on each of the last lower molars, cause it to be a link between the Man- gabeys and Guenons. The Guenons are the most numerous in species of any of the groups belonging to the Lasiopyeipa, are more slender in form than the Mangabeys, have not the last cusp on the posterior lower molar, and possess coats of many colors some with strongly contrasting hues, and long tails. MuiopirHecus has two species the smallest of the Guenons, and ErytHrocesus follows with a dozen species, long- legged and frequenters of the plains, rarely sojourning in forests. The Langurs, PycatHrix, placed in a separate subfamily, are also of a slender form with the legs longer than the arms, very long tail, cheek pouches absent, and a sacculated stomach of great complexity. *Sir William Flower has described this organ as follows: “An ordinary stomach must be supposed to be immensely elongated and gradually tapering from the cardiac end to a very prolonged pyloric extremity. Then two longitudinal muscular bands, corresponding in situation to the greater and lesser curvature of an ordinary stomach—the former commencing just below the fundus, and the latter at the cardiac orifice, and both proceeding toward the pylorus—are developed so as to pucker up the cavity into a number of pouches, exactly on the same principle as the human colon is puckered up by its three longitudinal *Animals Living and Extinct, p. 725. XX INTRODUCTION bands. These pouches are largest and most strongly marked at the cesophageal end, and becoming less and less distinct, quite cease several inches before the pylorus is reached, the last part of the organ being a simple, smooth-walled tube. The fundus or cardiac end of the stomach is formed by a single large sac, slightly constricted on its under surface by the prolongation of the inferior longitudinal band, or that corresponding to the great curvature. The cesophagus enters into the upper part of the left, or pyloric end of this sac, or rather at the point of junction between it and the second (also a very large) sacculus. Furthermore the whole of this elongated sacculated organ is, by the brevity, as it were of the long curvature, coiled upon itself in an irregular spiral manner, so that when in situ the pylorus comes to be placed very near the cesophageal entrance.” The Proboscis Monkey (Nasatis) is unique in one respect, the nose elongate to such a degree as to make it appear a caricature, other- wise the animal resembles in form the Langurs. The Guerezas, (Cot- oBUS), are chiefly noted for the rudimentary condition of the pollux or its absence altogether ; the long hairs falling as a fringe along the side or over the back, and the long tails usually with a conspicuous tuft. The species of RHINOPITHECUS and Simias are noted for the diminutive nose turned up at the tip. The Hytopatip# or Gibbons possess a skull not produced at the vertex, long arms with the hands reaching to the ground when the animal stands erect, short legs and small ischial callosities. The species of the genus SyMPHALANGUS differ from those of HyLopaTes in having the second and third digits of the foot united by webs as far as the last joint. The great Apes form the family Poncimp#, and have the skull produced at the vertex in Ponco, but not in Goritta or Pan. Ischial callosities are absent; arms longer than legs; hands reaching to the ankles in the Ourang when the animal is erect, only to the knees in the Gorillas and Chimpanzees. Upright bony crests are never seen on the crania of the last named, but the other two have frequently con- spicuously large bony crests in adult males. The Ourang possesses an os centrali but this, as in Man, is absent in the other two genera. As in the rest of the ANTHROPOIDEA the skull of the male can always be recognized by the elongate canines. When walking, the Gorillas and Chimpanzees go on the knuckles of the hands and the soles of the feet; but the Ourangs proceed chiefly by swinging from tree to tree by the assistance of their long arms. INTRODUCTION xxi CLASSIFICATION. The Order Primates containing, as it does, Man and the creatures which are nearest allied to him, must be regarded as the most important of all those recognized as belonging to the Animal Kingdom. The various species contained within it, from Man to Marmoset, form a fairly homogeneous group, with which the Lemuroids are associated in a subordinal division. It is a moot point with some whether the Lemurs should be considered members of the Order, having any rank whatever within it, as about the only claim they have to the position is the possession of the opposable great toe, which however is also found in a species of an altogether different Order, the Opossum of the Car- nivores. But, no matter how slight may be the pretensions of the Lemurs for admission to the ranks of the Primates, yet, by the almost general acquiescence of Mammalogists, they have of late been accepted as occupying a recognizable place in the Order. The Lemuroids are divided into three Families with four Sub- families, having twenty genera and subgenera embracing one hundred and six species forming the Suborder LEmuromwEeA. The remaining Primates are separated into two divisions containing respectively the Old World and New World Species, designated as the CRATARRHINE and PLATARRHINE. The first, in this work is divided into three Families with two Subfamilies containing twenty-two genera, and about 320 species; the second with two Families, having four Subfamilies, thirteen genera and about 150 Species. The dentition observed in the Order is both diphydont and heterodont; the members living in the eastern hemisphere possessing thirty-two teeth, those of the western hemisphere having thirty-six, except the members of the Family Cattt- TRICHIDZ which have thirty-two, the excess in the others being accounted for by the presence of an extra pair of premolars in each jaw. In the arrangement adopted the species ascend from the lowest form to the one considered as holding the highest rank, exclusive of Man, but standing nearest to him. The two aberrant forms of the Lemuroidea, DaAuBENTONIA and Tarsius head the list, the former remarkable for the peculiar struc- ture of the limbs and the specialized second finger, and the rodent teeth; the latter for its lengthened legs, digits provided with discs, and large eyes. These comprise the Families DAUBENTONIIDe, and Tarsiip&. Following these but still of a low order in the Family Nycticisip£, Subfamily Loristn, come Loris and Nycrticesus, the Slender and Slow Lori, with large expressionless eyes, pointed noses xxii INTRODUCTION and tailless bodies. ArctTocEeBus succeeds with its reflexed finger, wide spreading thumb and rudimentary tail, to be followed by PERopicticus whose tail is about one third the length of the body and having long slender processes from the anterior dorsal vertebre projecting through the skin. The Subfamily GaLtacinz follows with its genera GaLAco with three subgenera and thirty species, having the curious power of folding the ears at will; and HemicaLaco. Next comes the Subfamily LEMURINZ containing the true Lemurs and their near allies. It has seven genera, with, altogether, thirty-five species. The members of the seven genera present many characteristic differences from each other, in size, coloration, and peculiarities of crania. The members of one genus, CHIROGALE, afford a transition between GaLaco and LEemur. This genus and Microcesus have been considered by some Authors as not divisible, and while their members bear a resemblance to each other, yet they each exhibit sufficient characters to make it advisable to keep them in different genera. They are small animals, some of them the most minute of the LEmuromwea. The last Subfamily of this Suborder is INDRISIN# containing the largest member of the Lemur- oidea yet known. The adults have thirty teeth, and the toes, except the hallux, are united to the end of the first phalanx by a fold of skin. The Subfamily has but three genera, INDRIS with one species, the largest of all the Lemurs, distinguished by absence of tail and excessive variability in the color of pelage; PropirHEcus with two species and five subspecies. Like INpRIs the species of this genus are subject to much variation in color, and this has been productive of great con- fusion in discriminating between the different forms. They are large animals, with powerful hind limbs enabling them to leap amazing dis- tances. When walking on the ground they assume an erect posture and, like the Gibbons, balance themselves by holding the arms over their heads. The last genus is LicHANoTus with one species. It is a small animal with a rather long tail, and woolly fur. It is slow in its movements but when on the ground like the other members of INDRISINZ& it walks upright. The second Suborder ANTHROPOIDEA contains the remainder of the Primates, including Man. As the consideration of Homo is excluded in this Review, we pass to the Monkeys, Baboons, Apes, etc., which compose the rest of the Suborder. The Monkeys of the New World and those of the Old, save in one Family, CALLITRICHIDA, are separated by two characters, the number of teeth, and more or less prehensile tails. They are all contained in two Families, the one just mentioned above, and Cesip%. The first contains the smaller, less INTRODUCTION Xxili intelligent species, delicate of frame and constitution, unable to bear captivity, and soon succumb when taken from their accustomed environ- ment. CALLITRICHIDA contains six genera with about sixty species and subspecies. The members of this Family have only thirty-two teeth and in this respect resemble the species of the Old World, and differ from the rest of the Monkeys indigenous to the western hemisphere. The first genus is SENIOCEBUS with three species, with the head partly bald, and long occipital crest, and without a mane or ruff; next Crr- COPITHECUS with three species having a mantle; then LEONTOCEBUS having nineteen species, possessing a ruff on neck, and fourth, Cépr- POMIDAS with three species having the head crested and the hairs on the nape elongate. The fifth genus is CALLITHRIX with thirteen species. These are small creatures, among the most delicate of all the members of the Order, have small canines, tails with long hair, and the angle of the mandible expanded as in PirHecia. CALLICEBUS the sixth genus has twenty-two species, closely allied to the previous genus, and agreeing with it in certain of its characteristics. We now come to Monkeys that are distinctively American with one pair of extra premolars in both jaws, the nostrils directed outward, and the prehensile tail. They are all included in the Family Cepipz with its four Subfamilies. The first of these is ALOUATTINZ having but one genus ALOUATTA with eleven species, and two subspecies, some of them being the largest in size of the New World Monkeys. They are of low intelligence, morose in disposition, heavy in body and with a wonderfully powerful voice. The second Subfamily, PirHecina, containing the Sakis, Uakari and Squirrel Monkeys, has three genera the first of which is PiIrHEcIA with eight species. These are animals of moderate size, of a more slender figure than the species of ALOUATTA, with the hair on head, frequently standing upright, long and thick and with a median part. A thick beard hangs from the chin, especially noticeable in the male, and there is also a lengthened bushy tail. In certain species the hair of head is coarse, loosely set, and is directed forward forming a kind of hood around the face. The second genus is Cacajyao with only three species characterized by having the face and a large portion of the head naked and brightly colored, becoming more intense and vivid when the animal becomes excited. The tail is very short and the mandible is dilated posteriorly. The *“cazecum in C. caLvus is upwards of ten inches along the greater curvature; it is separated from the colon by a very marked constriction ; *Beddard, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1887, p. 119. xxiv INTRODUCTION it is not sacculated, and when fully distended with air is curved on itself into little less than a circle; it is furnished with a well developed median frenum carrying blood vessels.” The last genus is Saimiri having eight species. These are small active animals with large eyes, and the occipital region of the skull projected posteriorly. The third Subfamily is Aotin# with a single genus Aotus con- taining fourteen species. These are eminently nocturnal animals, of small size, and with large eyes placed close together. The fourth Sub- family is CEBIN® with four genera; the first ATELEUS, generally known as ‘Spider Monkeys,’ on account of their slender bodies and long limbs, with twelve species. The pollux is usually absent, and the tail prehensile, the animals of this genus being so expert in the use of this organ as to make it perform the service of an extra hand. The next genus is BRACHYTELEUS with only one species; a long limbed, heavy bodied creature, with, like ATELEUs, the thumb usually wanting. It is closely allied to the ‘Spider Monkeys.’ The third genus is Laco- THRIX having six species. Unlike the members of the two previous genera, the species of this one have a well developed thumb. The body is heavy, the round head covered thickly with short hairs, and best described as ‘bullet-headed.’ The animals are slow in movement, of a gentle disposition, and a delicate constitution. The fourth genus being the last of the American Monkeys is CeBus with twenty-two species and two subspecies. On account of the great variability in the coloring assumed by individuals, the members of this genus are the most difficult to determine of the Primates. They also, by certain of the species, are most generally known of all Monkeys. The face is flat, the muzzle not protruding. The brain has numerous convolutions, and the animals are intelligent, vivacious and very mischievous. The Apes, Baboons and Monkeys of the Old World comprise the CRATARRHINE section of the Primates, or those with, among other characters, the nostrils directed downward. There are only three Families and two Subfamilies possessing, altogether, twenty-two genera. The first Family is Lasiopycip= with eleven genera. Papio, the first genus, has nineteen species including the dog-faced baboons, so called on account of their long muzzle. These are large, powerful animals, associating in herds, commanded by one or more patriarchal members, and are formidable antagonists when attacked. THERO- PITHECUS contains but two species, large in size and heavily maned, in this respect allies of Papilio HAMADRYAS. The third genus is Cyno- PITHECus the black Apes of Celebes; peculiar looking animals without INTRODUCTION XXV tails, and very broad rostrum, and the head crested. They are not very closely allied to any of the species of the Primates, but are as well placed here as anywhere, for, although there are many characters to separate them, yet they are probably nearer the species of the genus Macus than any other. One species only is here recognized. Macus with three species serves as a link connecting CyNoPirHEcus and PirHecus. While outwardly resembling the black Ape of Celebes, yet its narrower rostrum, lack of crest on head, which is covered with short hairs, indicate an affinity for the Macaques, and its tailless con- dition is similar to that of Srmia SyLvANus, the only species of that genus. PirHeEcus is one of the largest genera of the Primates having fifty-three recognized species and subspecies. These vary greatly in appearance, with tails either short and thick, or slender and longer than the head and body. The Macaques are noted for their nude buttocks which are often most highly colored, eyes close together and surmounted by a bony ridge which gives them a scowling expression. The canines are long and make formidable weapons, and the brain is small. The seventh genus is CercocEeBus. It has nine species and two subspecies, of a more slender form than the Macaques and with shorter rostrum and longer limbs, but as in Pirnecus the last lower molar has five cusps. Much confusion has existed in the synonymy which, it is hoped, has at length been corrected. RHINOSTIGMA is the next genus, with one species, allied to both the members of CeRcocEeBus and LasiopyGa, and forming a link between them. This last named genus is the largest of all and has eighty-five species and subspecies. These monkeys have frequently a pelage of many brilliant colors, have slender bodies and long limbs and tails, and are very active in their movements. The ninth genus is MiopiIrHEcuS containing only two species of small stature and inconspicuous coloring. EryTHRocesus the last genus of the Sub- family, had, at one time, its members, like those of the one preceding, included in Lastopyca; they, however, differ in many ways from the Langurs, have longer legs, differently shaped skulls, and dwell upon the ground, being frequenters of the plains rather than of the forests, and go in small companies. Twelve species are recognized. The second Subfamily is Coropinz, frequently named Semno- pithecine with five genera. The first, PycaTHrix, has fifty-eight species and subspecies. They are delicate animals, and feed chiefly on leaves and shoots. Their forms are slender and they have no cheek pouches, and their pelage is much less gaily colored than that of the xxvi INTRODUCTION species of Lasiopyca. The Langurs, as they are called, are rarely seen in Zoological Gardens as their delicate constitutions cause them easily to succumb when held in captivity. RHINOPITHECUS is the second genus with three species, large animals with the nasal portion of the face depressed, the nose very small and the end turned upward giving a very bizarre expression to the countenance. One species has bright colors, ROXELLAN&, the others are garbed in more sober hues, but their size makes them imposing, and to rank among the finest species of the Primates in the Family to which they belong. The next genus Srimias contains but one species, a curious creature apparently, a connecting link between RHINOPITHECUS and Nasa _is as it possesses characters peculiar to each. Thus, it has the upturned nose of the members of the first genus, and also similar teeth, with cranial characters resembling those of the Proboscis monkey. It is altogether, considering the above mentioned peculiarities and its short naked tail with the terminal tuft, not comparable with any species of the Order; a very remarkable animal. Nasa is is the fourth genus with an equally extraordinary species, its greatly lengthened nose turned downward. This organ has a depression in the center and is capable of being dilated. The laryngeal sac is large, and there is a beard on the chin. There is but one species known. The last genus of the Family is Cotogpus containing the Guerezas of which there are thirty species, composed of the red and black Guerezas, the former constituting about two thirds the entire number. These animals have the thumb absent or rudimentary. They are large in size, and the black Guerezas are ornamented on different parts of the body, with long white hairs falling like a fringe, and the tails are more or less tufted with white. The fourth Family is Hyto- BATIDZ containing the Gibbons, with two genera, HyLopates with twelve species, and SyMPHALANGUS with one species and two sub- species, one of which, continentis is somewhat doubtful. These flying Apes are, among other characters, remarkable for the length of their arms, which, when the animal is erect, permit the hands to reach the ground. They walk erect, balancing themselves somewhat awkwardly by holding the arms, crooked at the elbow, over the head. The ischial callosities are small and they are the last of the large Ape-like species to possess them. The species and subspecies of SyMPHALANGUs are the largest in size, and differ from those of HyLoxpaTes in having the second and third toes united by skin up to their last joint, and the skin of the throat is distensible and overlies the laryngeal sac by the thyro-hyoid membrane. INTRODUCTION XXVii The last Family is that of Ponciip# containing the great Apes, represented by three genera, arranged according as their species are considered nearest to Man. In this Review the Ourang-utan is placed lowest in the scale or farthest from Man; and the genus Ponco is considered to possess but one species certainly, and one very doubtful. The Author is fully aware that this opinion is by no means shared by some of his colleagues, who would recognize a large number of species, but after examining all the material of Ourangs contained in all the large Museums of the world, the writer was able to discover no char- acter that would prove the existence of more than one species. The opinions as to the position the Ourang should occupy in reference to Man have varied greatly yet despite the views of so great an authority as that of his friend the late Sir Richard Owen, who would place the Ourang before the Gorilla in its relation to Man, the Author, from the result of his own studies, and the evidence produced by others, con- siders that the testimony in its entirety shows that the Gorilla, low as he may be in the scale of intelligence, has more of an affinity for Man than the Ourang, while both are far exceeded in man-like qualities by the Chimpanzee. The second genus then is GoriLta with certainly two species, and seven subspecies of more or less distinctive value. PSEUDOGORILLA has one species, connecting Gorilla and Pan. The last genus is Pan, containing the Chimpanzees, nearest in the scale to Man of all existing earth born creatures. There are at present eleven scheduled species and three not yet named, but how many of these will eventually be able to prove their right to be regarded as distinct species cannot as yet be determined. GENERA. The genera bestowed upon the Primates have been many and of varied importance. Some of course are necessary in order to properly recognize natural divisions of a Family; a few are useful to segregate, as subgeneric groups, certain portions of a genus which seem to have in common, characters not possessed by other species of the same genus ; but a considerable number of the proposed terms find no legiti- mate place, and only help to swell the list of synonyms. In the follow- ing arrangement the genera proposed are placed in the various Families to which they belong according to the year in which they were first published, beginning with Linnzus in 1758, earlier than whom no Author may be recognized.

North of this line in the Nearctic Region no species of the Primates dwells, while in the Eastern Hemisphere only those species belonging to certain islands of the Australian Region are found to the south and east of it. Beginning with the Old World, so called, we find that both Suborders are repre- sented, LEMuROIDEA being entirely absent from the Western Hemi- sphere. The species of this Suborder are found in the Malagasy Subregion of the East and West African Subregions, and the Indian and Ceylonese Subregions of the Oriental Region. The Island of Madagascar contains nearly one half of the number of the species comprised in the following genera: DAUBENTONIA, CHEIROGALE, MIcro- CEBUS, M1xocEeBUS, ALTILILEMUR, LEPIDOLEMUR, Myoxicesus, LEMUR, LicHANOoTUS, PropiTHEcusS, and INnpRIs, embracing altogether forty- three species and subspecies out of the one hundred and six belonging to the Suborder. The East African Subregion has one species of Peropicticus, P. IBEANUS in the Kakamega forest; and eighteen species and subspecies of Gataco and Hemicavaco are found in the East African Subregion, ranging from the vicinity of the White Nile below Khartoum to Mashonaland on the south up to an elevation of 5,000 feet. These are G. DUNNI; G. SENNAARIENSIS; G. GALLARUM; G. HINDSI; G. KIKUYUENSIS; G. LASIOTIS; H. THOMASI; G. BRACCATUS; G. braccatus albipes; G. PANGANIENSIS; G. BADIUS; G. ZANZIBARICUS ; G. CRASSICAUDATUS; G. KIRKI; G. MOSAMBICUS; G. NYASS#; G. SENE- GALENSIS; and G. MoNnTIERI. In the West African Subregion are G. SENEGALENSIS; G. PUPULUS; G. a. cameronensis; G. ELEGANTULUS; G. a. batesi; G. ANoMURUS; G. DEMIDOFFI; and G. demidoffi poensis, and six others. In the South African Subregion are G. Nyassz and G. GRANTI. The locality of G. e. apicalis is unknown. In the Indian Subregion of the Oriental Region one species of Loris, L. LYDEKKERIANUS; and one of Nycticesus, N. COUCANG are found, while the Ceylonese subregion has Loris TARDIGRADUS. The Indo-Chinese Subregion has four species of Nycricesus: N. pPycG- M#uS; N. TENASSERIMENSIS; N. MALAIANUS; and N. CINEREUS; and the Indo-Malay Subregion contains seven species of the same genus, viz.: the one last named together with N. HILLERI; N. BANCANUS; N. JAVANICUS; N. BORNEANUS; N. NATUN#; and N. MENAGENSIS. The members of the Suborder ANTHROPOIDEA are widely distributed over the Old World and are found in all its Zoogeographical divisions excepting the Polynesian and New Zealand subregions. The Ethiopian region is the richest in its number of Primates of all the INTRODUCTION Ixix divisions into which the Globe has been partitioned. It has already been shown that it contains most of the LEMUROIDEA, and now it will be seen that a large proportion of the ANTHROPOIDEA are also found within its limits, the great continent of Africa being responsible for most of the species. Papio is the first genus of the ANTHRO- POIDEA to be considered, and, in the East African Subregion of this Region, it contains twelve species distributed throughout its length from north to south, Nubia, to Lake Nyassa. They are P. CYNOCEPHALUS; P. HEUGLINI; P. DOGUERA; P. NEUMANNI; P. IBEA- Nus; P. TESSELLATUM; P. FURAX; P. PRUINOSUS; P. STREPITUS; P. HAMADRYAS; P. h. arabicus from Southern Arabia; and P. BRocKMANI. The West African Subregion has P. NIGERIZ; P. papio; P. sPHINX; P. LEUCOPHZUS; P. YOKOENSIS; and P. PLANIROSTRIS; while the South African Subregion has but one species P. PORCARIUS. THEROPITHECUS has but two species, T. GELADA, and T. OBSCURUS ; both natives of Abyssinia in the East African Subregion. CyNo- PITHECUS and Macus take us into the Austro-Malayan Subregion of the Australian Region, where, in Celebes, and the small islands of Menado-tue, Batchian, Muna and Butan, and doubtfully in the Aru Islands, the few species of these genera are found. The next genus in the order adopted is Simra, with its single species of S. SyLVANUS found in the southwestern part of the Mediterranean Subregion, in Morocco and Algiers, whence it was introduced on the Rock of Gibraltar. PirHeEcus, with its many species, is dispersed over all the recognized Zoogeographical Regions of the Old World except the Australian. Beginning with the Palearctic Region in the Siberian Subregion, Thibet possesses three species, P. vestiTus; P. LASIOTIS; and P. THIBETANUM; and one from Cashmere, P. vittosus; and P. FUSCATUS from Japan. The next is the Oriental Region, and in the Indian and Ceylonese Subregions four species are found, P. RHESUS; P. stnicus; P. ALBIBARBATUS; and P. prtEatus. In the Indo-Chinese Subregion fifteen species are met with, P. assAMENSIS, and this Macaque goes as far to the west, in the Himalaya range of the Indian Subregion, as Masuri; P. speciosus; (this species found also in Borneo), P. NEMESTRINUS; P. IRuS; P. ANDAMANENSIS; P. RUFESCENS ; P. apustus; P. InsuLANS; P. vitris; P. HARMANDI; P. BREVICAUDUS; P. SANCTI-JOHANNIS; P. cycLtopsis; P. vatipus; and P. LITTORALIs. The Indo-Malayan Subregion of this region contains twenty-six species dispersed through the lower Malayan Peninsula and the numerous islands of the various Archipelagoes. They are P. cariTatis; P. Fas- CICULARIS ; P. NEMESTRINUS; P. umBROsUS; P. FUSCUS; P. PHAURUS; Ixx INTRODUCTION P. AGNATUS; P. LAPSUS; P. ALACER; P. MORDAX; P. RESIMUS; P. BAWE- ANUS; P. cupipusS; P. PAGENSIS; P. LING#; P.

L=tTus, and those of the Philippine and Sulu islands. CERcOcEBUS is an African genus exclusively confined to the Ethiopian Region. In East Africa from the Tana River to Uganda and the Upper Congo four species are found: C. GALERITUS; C. a. john- stoni; C. CHRYSOGASTER; and C. HAGENBECKI; and West Africa has the remaining species, six in all, ranging from Sierra Leone to the Lower Congo: C. zTHIops; C. LUNULATUS; C. TORQUATUS; C. ATER- RIMUS; C. ALBIGENA; C. a. zenkeri; and C. AGILIs. The genus RHINOSTIGMA contains but one species, R. HAMLYNI, from the Ituri Forest, East Africa, apparently a link between the last genus and the one succeeding, and remarkable for the shape of its face, (which is similar to that of a Barn-Owl), and the mark over the nose from forehead to upper lip, and the small fifth cusp on the last lower molar. The great genus LasiopyGa, containing the largest number of species of all those included in the Order Primates, succeeds RHINO- STIGMA. It is entirely confined to the Ethiopian Region, its mem- bers dispersed over the African Continent save along the Mediter- ranean littoral. The East African Subregion of the Ethiopian Region contains forty species and subspecies, L. NEGLEcTA Schlegel, (nec Auct.) ; L. GRISEoviripIs; L. BoUTOURLINI; L. MATSCHIE; L. DJAM- DJAMENSIS; L.

Eight remain whose habitat is entirely unknown, L. VHOEsTI; L. NIGRIVIRIDIS; L. INOBSERVATA; L. WERNERI; L. NIGRI- GENSIS; L. ERYTHROGASTER ; L. TEMMINCKI and L. ALBITORQUATA. MiopiTHEcus follows Lasiopyca; indeed up to the present time its species were always included in the last genus. It has only two members, both natives of the East African Subregion of the Ethiopian Region, their range extending from Southern Cameroon to, and including, Angola. They are M. TALAPoIN and M. ANsoRGEI. ERYTHROCEBUS contains the long-legged reddish colored Guenons, heretofore included in Lasiopyeca. They are inhabitants of the Ethiopian Region, six being dwellers of the East African Subregion, E. PYRRHONOTUS; E. POLIOPHUS; E. ALBIGENIS; E. ForMosUS; E. WHYTEI; and E. BAUMSTARKI. Five are inhabitants of the West African Subregion, E. patas; E. KERSTINGI; E. ZECK1; E, LANGELDI; and E. sannio. The locality of one species, E. CIRCUMCINCTUS, is unknown. _ We now come to PycaTurix one of the largest genera of the ANTHROPOIDEA. Its members are natives of the Palearctic and Oriental Regions. Two species only are found in the first of these, P. SCHISTACEUS and P. tania. In the Indian Subregion of the Oriental Region is found but one species, P. ENTELLUS. In the Ceylonese Sub- region seven species are met with: P. CEPHALOLOPTERA; P. c. monti- cola; P. SENEXx; P. JoHNI; P. urRsINA; P. HYPOLEUCA; and P. PRIAMUS. In the Indo-Chinese Subregion of this Region are found eight species: P. PILEATA; P. FRANGCOISI; P. cREPUSCULA; P. c. wroughtoni; P. MaAR- GARITA; P. GERMAINI; P. NEM#uS; and P. nicripes. The Indo- Malayan Subregion contains the remaining species: P. MELANOLOPHA ; P. NOBILIS; P. RUBICUNDA; P. CARIMAT2; P. FRONTATA; P. HOSET; P. THOMASI; P. POTENZIANI; P. AuRATA; P. crisTaTA; P. c. pullata; P. ULTIMA; P. ALBIPES; P. NUDIFRONS; P. CRUCIGER; P. CHRYSOMELAS; P. SUMATRANA; P. BATUANA; P. PERCURA; P. FEMORALIS; P. MELA- MERA; P. BARBEI; P. PHAYREI; P.

EVERETTI. P. HOLO- TOPHREA is the only one whose locality is unknown. RHINOPITHECUs is a small genus with four known species, belong- ing to the Siberian and Manchurian Subregions of the Palearctic xxii INTRODUCTION Region; and go as far as Tonkin and eastern Thibet. They are R. ROXELLAN#; R. BIETI; R. BERLICHI, and R. avuNcuLuUs. SiMIAs and Nasais each with a single species are natives of the islands of South Pagi and Borneo respectively of the Indo-Malayan Subregion of the Oriental Region. Cotopus is a genus of the Ethiopian Region its members being entirely restricted to the Continent of Africa, the greatest number of species dwelling in the East African Subregion, and ranging from Abyssinia to Nyassa- land and from Gambia to Angola. In the East African Subregion fifteen species are found, which, beginning with the most northern are as follows: C. aByssinicus; C. PoLyuRUS; C. GALLARUM; C. ELLIOTI; C. TEPHROSCELES; C. RUWENZORI; C. CAUDATUS; C. RUFOMI- TRATUS; C. PALLIATUS; C. KIRKI; C. GRAUERI; C. SHARPEI; C. GODONORUM ; and C. ANGOLENSIS. In the West African Subregion are C. BOUVIERI; C. FULIGINOSUS; C. VELLEROSUS; C. SATANAS; C. FERRU- GINEUS; C. RUFO-NIGER; C. vERUS; C. a. occidentalis; C. PREUSSI; C. POLYcoMUS; and C. PENNANTI. Four species are found in Central Africa, and C. TEMMINCKI’s habitat is unknown. Hy opaTes or Gibbons are natives of two of the recognized Zoogeographical Regions, the Indian and the Oriental. Of the first of these in the Indo-Chinese Subregion are H. HooLock; H. var; H. LEUCOGENYS; H. GABRIELLI; H. HENRICI; H. piLeatus; and H. nasutus. In the Indo-Malayan Subregion are H. Lar; H. AGILIs; H. Leuciscus; H. concotor; H. FUNEREUS; and H. Fuscus; the last two being of doubtful validity. The other genus of Gibbons SympHa- LANGUS has S. SYNDACTYLIS, with one rather doubtful subspecies, S. Ss. continentis; and S. Koss; all in the Indo-Malay Subregion of the Indian Region. We now reach the Ponciipz containing the great Apes, the remaining members of the Primates. Poneo the first genus has one species, P. pyrem#us, (a second being doubtfully possible P. ABELII,) from the great islands of Borneo and Sumatra in the Indo- Malay Subregion of the Indian Region. The second genus GoriLLa has all its members save one in the West African Subregion of the Ethiopian Region. These are G. GORILLA; G. g. castaneiceps; G. g. matschie; G. g. jacobi; and G. g. diehli. In the East African Sub- region G. BERINGERI is found in the German Protectorate, in all, two species and four subspecies. Of the majority of these it must be said that they are very doubtfully separable from G. GorILLA, all the knowledge we have of them having been gathered from very insufficient material. INTRODUCTION Ixxiii PsEUDOGORILLA has one species P. MAYEMA? from the Congo forest. The last genus of the Primates of the Old World is Pan em- bracing the Chimpanzees. Fifteen species are tentatively acknowledged in this work, but we are without sufficient information regarding them, and their validity is in almost as great uncertainty as is that of some of the species of the genus Goritta. The ranges of these different species are either not known at all, or very imperfectly, and the greater number of forms are found in the West African Subregion from Sierra Leone to the Gaboon. In this comparatively restricted district of the African Continent all the species of Chimpanzees, save two, so far as is known, are to be met with. They are P. catvus; P. FULIcI- NosuS; P. SATYRUS; P. KOOLOO-KAMBA; P. LEUCOPRYMNUS; P. PyG- MUS; P. CHIMPANSE; P. AUBRYI; P. VELLEROSUS; and P. FUSCUS. All these are found in Gaboon and Cameroon, save two, P. VELLEROSUS absent from Gaboon, and P. satyrus not found in Cameroon. In the East African Subregion two species only are known to dwell, P. SCHWEINFURTHI in the Nyam-nyam country, and P. s. marungensis from the vicinity of the Albert Nyanza, and in the Congo forest. In Neogea, embracing the Western Hemisphere, we find the Primates are represented in the Neotropical region only, and Mexico contains the forms that reach the highest northern limit. Here is found a subspecies of ALouvatra, A. p. mexicana in the State of Vera Cruz, and one species of ATELEUS, A. PAN. Two species are found in Guatemala, ALOUATTA VILLOSA; and ATELEUS PAN. Nicaragua has five species of Primates, one, AoTUS RUFIPES, (but doubtfully a resident of that State) ; ALOUATTA PALLIATA; ATELEUS GEOFFROYI; A. ATER: and CEeBUS CAPUCINUS. Costa Rica is represented by two species of different genera CEDIPOMIDAS GEOFFROYI; and SAIMIRI @RSTEDI; both also met with in Panama; and on Coiba Island in the Bay of Panama Alouatta p. coibensis is found. On the Island of Trinidad ALovatta INSULANUS is met with. On the continent of South America beginning with the Guianas, Brazilian Subregion, five species are found in all: SAIMIRI scluRUS; AOTUS TRIVIRGATUS; ALOUATTA MACCONNELLI; ATELEUS PANISCUS; and CEBUS APELLA; some of these having a wide distribution in South America. French Guiana possesses besides the species just named, CERCOPITHECUS RUFIMANUs and PITHECIA CAPIL- LIMENTOSA; and British Guiana has four additional, CzercopITHECUS MIDAS; PITHECIA SATANAS; P. CHIROPOTES; and CEBUS CASTANEUS. Dutch Guiana has also CERCOPITHECUS MIDAS. Venezuela has eight species of- Primates: CERCOPITHECUS URSULUS; CALLICEBUS TOR- Ixxiv INTRODUCTION QUATUS; SAIMIRI SCIUREUS; S. CASSIQUIARENSIS; ALOUATTA URSINA; ATELEUS VARIEGATUS ; A. BEELZEBUTH ; and CEBUS APICULATUS. Brazil with its immense extent of territory and vast forests contains the greatest proportion of the American Primates. It has two SENIOCEBUS, S. BICOLOR and S. MARTINSI; one CERCOPITHECUS URSULUS; nine LrEontocespus; L. CHRYSOMELAS; L. ROSALIA; L. cHRysSOPYGUS; L. MYSTAX ; L. NIGRICOLLIS; L. IMPERATOR; L. NIGRIFRONS; L. LABIATUS; and L. rHomasi. Of CaLLITHRIX, it has thirteen species: C. SANTAREM- ENSIS ; C. JACCHUS? C. ALBICOLLIS ; C. HUMERALIFER ; C. PENICILLATA } C. p. jordani; C. LEUCOCEPHALA; C. ARGENTATA; C. AURITA; C. FLAVI- CEPS; C. CHRYSOLEUCA; C. PYGM#A; and C. LEUCOPUS. CALLICEBUS is represented by three species: C. EMILIZ; C. ToRQUATUS; and C. Amictus. Aotus has five species: A. TRIVIRGATUS; A. ROBERTI; A. INFULATUS; A. MIRIQUOUINA; and A. VOCIFERANS. ALOUATTA gives three species: A. BEELZEBUL; A. CARAYA; and A. jyuara; while PirHecia has six: P. saTANAS; P. CHIROPOTES; P. ALBICANS; P. CHRYSOCEPHALA; P. ALBINASA; and P. MONACHA. Cacajao is entirely Brazilian and all its three species are found within that territory. ATELEUS appears to be represented by only three species: A. MAR- GINATUS; A. VARIEGATUS; and A. PANIscus. The single species of BRACHYTELEUS is a native of Brazil; and LacoTurix has four species: L. racotricHa; L. cANA; L. UBERICOLA; and L. THomMasI. CEBUs has eight species inhabiting Brazil, C. vaRIEGATUS ; C. UNICOLOR ; C. MACRO- CEPHALUS; C. VERSUTA; C. LIBIDINOSUS; C. CIRRIFER; C. CALIGINOSUS ; C. AZAR; and three doubtful, their exact localities being unknown, C. CRASSICEPS ; C. VELLEROSUS; and C. FRONTATUS. On the western side of the Continent, Colombia contains sixteen of the species of Primates, one SENIOCEBUS METICULOSUS ; one CEDIPOMIDAS SALAQUIENSIS ; one SAIMIRI SCIUREUS; three Aotus; A. VOCIFERANS; A. GRISEIMEMBRA; and A. LANIUS; one ALouaATTA; A. SENICULUS; four ATELEUS; A. GEOFFROYI; A. ATER; A. RUFIVENTER; and A. HYBRIDUS. LacoTHrix has but one species LAGoTRICHA. CerBus has four and one subspecies : C. FLAVUS; C. CHRYSOPUS; C. MALITIOSUS; C. c. nigripectus; and C. FATUELLUS. Ecuador, the next State, has twelve species: SAIMIRI MADEIRZ; and S. MACRODON ; AOTUS GULARIS; and A. MICRO- DON ; ALOUATTA ZQUATORIALIS ; PITHECIA MONACHA; ATELEUS PANIS- cus; LAGOTHRIX INFUMATA; L. LUGENS; and CaLLicesus has C. CUPREUS; C. PENULATUS; and C. LEUCOMETOPA. Peru has nineteen species: CALLICEBUS TORQUATUS; C. AMICTUS; C PERSONATUS; C. CUPREUS; and C. SUBRUFUS. SAIMIRI B. NIGRICEPS; and S. MACRODON ; four Aorus: A. TRIVIRGATUS; A. NIGRICEPS; A. SENEX; and A. OSERYI. INTRODUCTION Ixxv Alouatta has but one species URSINA; PITHECIA two, P. saATANAS; and P, MONACHA; ATELEUS one, VARIEGATUS. LAGOTHRIX also one, LAGO- TRICHA; and Cesus three, C. a. pallidus; C. u. cuscinus; and C. f. peruanus. In Bolivia, the last portion of South America in which Pri- mates occur, four species are found: CALLICEBUS DONACOPHILUS; SAIMIRI USTUS; AOTUS BOLIVIENSIS; and ALOUATTA SARA. From the above recapitulation it will be seen that the Brazilian Subregion is the home of the Primates in the New World. Every genus save one, CEpIPomIDAS, is represented within its boundaries, and two, Cacajyao and BRACHYTELEUS are not found elsewhere. On the eastern border of the Neotropical region no Primate is found below the southern limit of the Brazilian Subregion, but on the western side the Order has its representatives in Peru and Bolivia of the Chilian Subregion. The geographical distribution of each species, so far as known, is shown in the following list. ‘LEMUROIDEA. DAUBENTONIIDZ. DAUBENTONIA. Range of the Genus. ETHIOPIAN REGION. Range of the Species. 1.

From the foregoing it will be observed that the Ethiopian Region contains the largest number of genera of the Primates, viz.: twenty- five, the Neotropical Region next with fourteen, then the Oriental Region with nine, the Palearctic Region three, and the Australian Region with three. All the species of LEMUROIDEA excepting the species of DAUBENTONIA, TarsiIus, Loris and NycrTicEBus, are natives of the Ethiopian Region. Of the genera of the ANTHROPOIDEA two are common to two of the Zoogeographical Regions, viz.: PiTHE- cus and PycaTtHrix which are represented by species in the eastern portion of the Palearctic Region and generally, (more particularly as regards the first genus), in the Oriental Region, and one, Tarsus, has species in both the Oriental and Australian Regions. All other genera have their members confined to one Region only. BIBLIOGRAPHY. PRINCIPAL AUTHORS AND WORKS REFERRED TO 1758. 1762. 1763. 1775. 1806. Linnzus (C). Systema Nature. Brisson (M.J).

It was then decided, as it is found in comparatively few places, to continue it as a uniform error and call attention to it here. The premier genus of the Great Apes is Pongo, and the family name Pongide, not Pongiide. This is in accordance with the custom which has caused the acceptance of the subfamily name of the species of the genera GALAco and HemicaLo—Gatacin#. On the other hand, if it is deemed desirable to consider this barbarous name as a Latin word with a genitive case, then, of course, the family name would be Pongonide. There is, however, no rule, known to the author, incorporated in any code, which regulates the formation of native or barbarous words that properly are not declinable, have really no genitive case, or in some cases are not even in Latin form, and have never been adopted in the Latin language.

This extraordinary little animal, possessing characters both of the Rodentia and Quadrumana, and known popularly as the ‘Aye-Aye,’ was first discovered by Sonnerat during his visit to the Island of Madagascar. The name it bears was suggested to Sonnerat by the exclamation “Aye-Aye” of the natives who accompanied him, and PLATE 1. VOLUME |. DAUBENTONIA MADAGASCARIENSIS. DAUBENTONIA 3 who then saw the creature for the first time. Its discoverer had a male and female alive on his ship where they lived for two months, sub- sisting on cooked rice. A skin was brought to Paris and presented to Buffon and was deposited in the Museum of the Jardin des Plantes. Buffon considered it allied to the Squirrels, and also that it had some relation to the Tarsier (Tarstus—?). Gmelin placed it in the genus Sciurus and was followed by Cuvier, who however recognized the fact that while the teeth were those of a rodent, the head was very similar to that of the Quadrumana. [Illiger associated it with Tarsius and Gacaco; and Owen in his masterly treatise on the ‘Aye-Aye’ (I. c.) sums up its position as “related by affinity to the Quadrumana, and by analogy to the Rodentia.” It is now generally conceded to be the sole representative of a distinct family of the Lemuroidea. It is remarkable for various peculiarities such as the nictitating membrane of the eye, the naked ears studded with small protuberances, the attenuated and wirelike middle finger, and the opposable thumb and great toe. The fingers and toes are furnished with compressed pointed claws, excepting the great toe, which has a flat nail and is placed at a right angle to the other toes. The tail is long and bushy and is em- ployed as a covering when the animal is sleeping. Teats two, abdomi- nal. The os planum of the ethmoid not perceptible. Hon. H. Sandwith, when Colonial Secretary in the Mauritius, obtained an example of the ‘Aye-Aye’ from Madagascar and exhibited it in spirits to Prof. Owen, and this was the first specimen received in England. Ina letter to Prof. Owen, Dr. Sandwith says of this animal, which he kept for some time in captivity, “I observe he is sensitive to cold, and likes to cover himself up in a piece of flannel, although the thermometer is now often 90° in the shade. On receiving him from Madagascar, I was told he ate bananas, so of course I fed him on them, but tried him on other fruit. I found he liked dates, which was a grand discovery, supposing he be sent alive to England. Still I thought that those strong rodent teeth, as large as those of a young beaver, must have been intended for some other purpose than that of trying to eat his way out of a cage, the only use he seemed to make of them, beside masticating soft fruits. Moreover he had other peculiarities, e. g., singularly large naked ears, directed forwards, as if for offensive rather than defensive purposes; then again, the second finger of the hand is unlike anything but a monster supernumerary member, it being slender and long, half the thickness of the other fingers, and resembling a piece of bent wire. Excepting the head and this finger he closely resembled alemur. Now, as he attacked every night the woodwork of his cage, 4 DAUBENTONIA which I was gradually lining with tin I bethought myself of tying some sticks over the woodwork, so that he might gnaw these instead. I had previously put in some large branches for him to climb upon; but the others were straight sticks to cover over the woodwork of his cage, which he alone attacked. It so happened that the thick sticks I now put into his cage were bored in all directions by a large and destructive grub, called here the Montouk. Just at sunset the Aye-Aye crept from under his blanket, yawned, stretched, and betook himself to his tree, where his movements are lively and graceful, though by no means so quick as those of a Squirrel. Presently he came to one of the worm- eaten branches, which he began to examine most attentively ; and bend- ing forward his ears, and applying his nose close to the bark, he rapidly tapped the surface with the curious second digit, as a Wood- pecker taps a tree, though with much less noise, from time to time inserting the end of the slender finger into the worm-holes as a sur- geon would a probe. At length he came to a part of the branch which evidently gave out an interesting sound, for he began to tear it with his strong teeth. He rapidly stripped off the bark, cut into the wood, and exposed the nest of a grub, which he daintily picked out of its bed with the slender tapping finger, and conveyed the luscious morsel to his mouth. I watched these proceedings with much interest, and was much struck with the marvellous adaptation of the creature to its habits, shown by his acute hearing, which enables him aptly to distinguish the different tones emitted from the wood by his gentle tapping; his evidently acute sense of smell, aiding him in his search; his secure footsteps on the slender branches, to which he firmly clung by his quadrumanous members; his strong rodent teeth enabling him to tear through the wood; and lastly by the curious slender finger, unlike that of any other animal, and which he used alternately as a pleximeter, a probe, and a scoop. “But I was yet to learn another peculiarity. I gave him water to drink in a saucer, on which he stretched out a hand, dipped a finger into it, and drew it obliquely through his open mouth; and this he repeated so rapidly, that the water seemed to flow into his mouth. After a while he lapped like a cat, but his first method of drinking appeared to me to be his way of reaching water in the deep clefts of trees. “T am told that the Aye-Aye is an object of veneration in Madagas- car, and that if any native touches one, he is sure to die within the year ; hence the difficulty of obtaining a specimen.” The Aye-Aye lives in the trees and is strictly nocturnal, becoming active on the disappearance of the sun. One young is said to be pro- DAUBENTONIA 5 duced at a birth, and the female builds a large nest, two feet in diame- ter, of rolled up leaves of the Traveller tree, lining it with twigs and dry leaves and with an entrance on one side. The natives are very superstitious in regard to this animal, and are very unwilling to attempt to capture it. ‘A female Aye-Aye lived for several years in the Garden of the Zoological Society in Regent’s Park, London, and Mr. Bartlett, the late Superintendent, has placed on record (I. c.) some interesting facts regarding its habits. On the voyage it gave birth to one young, which lived only ten days, and the mother was in very poor condition when she arrived, being thin and feeble. It slept during the day, lying on its side with the body curved and the tail spread out and flattened, and used as a covering, almost concealing the animal. At night it was active, moving about its cage in the dark and trying to gnaw its way out. It exhibited no uneasiness when a light was introduced, but tried to touch the lamp with its long fingers. It was in the habit of hang- ing by the hind legs, and when so suspended, employed the slender wire-like finger to clean and comb the tail. The same finger was utilized to clean the face, and pick at the corners of the eyes, the nose, mouth, ears, and various parts of the body. While so occupied the other fingers are kept partially closed. Only the left hand was used in feeding and was moved very rapidly. The manner of taking food was peculiar. The fourth finger was thrust into the food, the slender finger being at the same time raised above and behind the others, and the first finger and thumb were lowered. The hand is then drawn rapidly back and forth, the inner side of the fourth finger passing between the lips, the head all the time held sideways, and at each movement the food was deposited in the mouth. Sometimes the animal would lap up the food from the dish, but not often. It never watched for its food or guarded it, for on Mr. Bart- lett’s removing the dish while the creature was feeding, it continued to thrust its hand forward, and only discontinued when no more food was procured, and then moved away to search elsewhere. After taking food in a fluid state, it frequently ate portions of wood and bark. It was fed upon a mixture of milk, honey, eggs and any thick, sweet, gelatinous food, but would not touch meal worms, grasshoppers, the larve of wasps and similar objects. It never uttered any sound or exhibited any anger, neither was it shy. Mr. Bartlett obtained some fresh sugar cane and placed some sticks in the cage, and the Aye-Aye 6 DAUBENTONIA exhibited much fondness for it, cutting deeply into the cane with its powerful incisor teeth, then the fibre ‘was drawn out and the juice extracted by chewing. Mr. Shaw (l. c.) gives an interesting account of an Aye-Aye he had in captivity, relating its peculiar habits, most of which have already been given in the quoted statements of previous writers, but certain facts are worth recording. He says when his captive in its efforts to escape bit at the wire of its cage he noticed that the incisors of either jaw would separate and admit the wire between them even down to the gum, causing their tips to be a considerable distance apart. It was very savage and struck with its hands, but in the daytime its move- ments were slow and uncertain. Regarding the superstitions the natives entertain of the animal, he states that many years ago, the Bétsimisaraka, in whose country the Aye-Aye is chiefly found, had occasion to open an old tomb in which an ancestor had been buried. No sooner was an entrance effected than an animal, which was a development of said ancestor, sprang out, and their exclamation of surprise, “Haye-haye,” became the creature’s name. Hence many of these people believe that the Aye-Aye is an embodiment of their forefathers and will not touch it, but when they happen to find a dead one in the forest, they make a tomb for it and bury it with all formality. They imagine that if they try to catch one they will surely die, and this belief extends even to the animal’s nest. If one is given, or picks up accidentally a portion of these structures on which the head of an Aye-Aye has rested, it will bring good for- tune; while if it happens to be the part on which the feet had been placed, bad luck or death would surely follow. VOLUME I. PLATE Il. TARSIUS FUSCUS No. 97.1.2.2. Brit. Mus. Coll. Twice Nat. Size. TARSIUS 7 FAMILY 2. TARSIIDZE. The little animals which comprise this family are about as large as an ordinary rat, and possess several remarkable characteristics. In their habits they are nocturnal, concealing themselves among the branches of trees or bushes during the day, moving only when dis- turbed and becoming very active, and exhibiting often a surprising agility after the setting of the sun. They have small rounded heads with enormous eyes, the pupils of which during the day are contracted to a mere slit, but at night are enlarged to such a degree that they cover nearly the entire iris. The fur is soft and woolly. The legs, which exceed the arms in length, have long slender toes and, like the fingers, are provided with sucker-like discs, which enable them to cling firmly to the branches, or any object upon which the animal may alight during its swift progress, which is performed by powerful leaps that cover at times amazing distances for such small creatures. The tail is long and tufted, and when the animal is in flight, is carried above the line of the body, the end curving upward. The nails on the toes are flat, except those on the second and third digits which are compressed. The lower jaw has two small nearly erect incisors, but those in the upper jaw are four in number and unequal, the anterior ones being the largest, and there is no central gap present. GENUS 1.

In this paper reference is made to Lemur tarsier Erxl., which, it is stated, must be taken instead of Tarsius spectrum Pallas as the name of the species, the Author evidently not being aware of the fact that Erxleben’s species, and also that of Pallas both founded on Buffon’s animal, are quite undetermi- nable and therefore both names must be dropped. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES. The members of this genus are found on the islands of the East Indian Archipelago. Seven species have been described, of which two are not yet satisfactorily established. In Borneo we have T. BORNEA- NUS, its range unknown; in Billiton Island T. sattaTor is found, and it may probably occur in Banka and Sumatra. In Java T. BANCANUS was met with; Celebes has T. ruscus, and in the Philippine Archi- pelago T. PHILIPPINENSIS occurs on Samar, Leyte, and Mindanao, and T. SANGHIRENSIS on Sanghir. It must be considered, however, that the dispersion of the Tarsier is as yet but very imperfectly known, and many other islands probably possess those above named, or contain species not yet discovered. There is no large series of these animals in any collection, and specimens are very much needed for study and a bet- ter understanding of the group. T. FRATERCULUs was taken on Bohol.

Ex type Dresden Museum. All specimens are not so red as the type, and some are dark grayish on the back of the head, with the shoulders and upper back washed with reddish; hands dark brown; feet pale rufous. An example from Mindanao before me is quite pale, a wood brown with a reddish tinge, the upper back only inclined to rusty.. The Philippine Tarsier is more or less a reddish animal, and in the prevalence of this color it differs from the Tarsier of the other island groups in the eastern seas. The following account of the habits of this little animal by Mr. John Whitehead, who obtained specimens in Samar, was published by Mr. O. Thomas in his paper above referred to. Mr. Whitehead states: “This remarkable mammal is found in the islands of Samar and Leyte where it is called by the Biscayas ‘Magou.’ So far as I am aware it has not been obtained in Luzon or Mindoro to northwest of Samar. It probably occurs in the great Island of Min- danao, and perhaps in Bohol, to the south of Leyte. “Tn habits the ‘Magouw’ is nocturnal, as the enormous owl-like eyes would lead one to suppose; it frequents abandoned clearings where the new growth has sprung up to a height of some twenty feet, and in Samar where the ground is also thickly covered with ferns and other TARSIUS 11 plants to a height of some three feet. In such places this little animal easily conceals itself during the day. I had the good fortune to see a ‘Magow’ in such a locality one day in Samar. The Tarsius was clinging to the stem of a small tree just above the fern growth, with its peculiar hands around the tree; it was awake and intently watching my movements, and permitted me to approach as close as I wished; when, doubtless at the least sudden movement of my hands it would have jumped to the ground, and made off in the thick woody growth. During the night the ‘Magou’ is very active, and may often be heard, in localities where they are numerous, uttering a peculiar squeak like a monkey. From its habits of feeding only on insects this animal has a strong Bat-like smell. “In Samar where at different times I kept several ‘Magous’ alive, I found them very docile and easily managed during the day. They fed off grasshoppers sitting on their haunches on my hand. When offered an insect, the ‘Magou’ would stare for a short time with its most won- derful eyes, then slowly bend forward, and with a sudden dash would seize the insect with both hands and instantly carry it to its mouth, shutting its eyes and screwing up its tiny face in a most whimsical fashion. The grasshopper was then quietly passed through the sharp little teeth, the kicking legs being held by both hands. When the insect was beyond farther mischief, the large eyes of the ‘Magou’ would open, and the legs and wings were then bitten off, while the rest of the body was thoroughly masticated. My captives would also drink fresh milk from a spoon. After the sun had set this little animal became most difficult to manage, escaping when possible, and making tremen- dous jumps from chair to chair. When on the floor it bounded about like a miniature Kangaroo, travelling about the room on its hind legs with the tail stretched out and curved upward, uttering peculiar shrill monkey-like squeaks, and biting quite viciously when the opportunity offered. During the day the pupil of the eye becomes so contracted that it appears only as a fine line, but after dark it is so expanded as to fill up most of the iris. “The popular native idea is that the ‘Magou’ feeds on charcoal, the reason for this being that the animal is generally found after the old plantations have been cut down and burnt, this ‘Magou’ doubtless having returned to its old haunts from which it had been driven by the wood cutters. This delusion is fatal to all captured ‘Magous,’ as they are immediately put on a diet of charcoal, and, therefore, soon starve to death.” 17 TA RSA ws. TARSIUS FRATERCULUS Miller.

Very near T. PHILIPPINENSIS, but apparently differs in having the forehead, nose and cheeks buffy white. Color. Like T. PHILIPPINENSIS, but forehead, nose and cheeks buffy white. Dr. Meyer does not describe this species, but has contented himself with comparing it with T. ruscus and showing where it differs from that species. This was easy for it has nothing to do with T. Fuscus, but is very doubtfully separable from T. PHILIPPINENsIS. Dr. Meyer does not show where his animal differs from that species, though he says it is allied to it; in fact, if the figure in the plate is colored cor- rectly, it does differ from all known Tarsiers, in its buffy white fore- head, nose and cheeks. This, however, is an unsatisfactory conclusion to reach, because it would seem incredible, if the Sanghir examples possessed this remark- able peculiarity, that Dr. Meyer did not mention it. I could not find the type of T. SANGHIRENsIS in the Dresden Museum and doubt if it is there, and so could not compare it with T. TARSIUS 13 PHILIPPINENSIS; but knowing how rarely a small colored figure gives a correct representation of the original, I should expect to find the present form inseparable from T. PHILIPPINENSIS. Being at present unable to prove it to be the same, I leave T. SANGHIRENSIS to occupy a specific rank. TARSIUS SALTATOR Elliot. Tarsius saltator Elliot, Bull. Am. Mus. Nat. Hist., N. Y., 1910, DB.

Skull: orbits approximate; braincase broadest anteriorly; palate extending beyond last molar ; incisors small; last lower molar with five cusps. The earliest genus proposed for this animal was Tardigradus Boddert, (1. c.) as shown by Messrs. Stone and Rehn, (1. c.) in their review of the Genus. Unfortunately, however, the name had been previously employed by Brisson in the BRADIPODIDZ, and therefore was not available, and Loris proposed by Geoffroy, (I. c.) the next in succession, became the term to be selected. The members of the family NYCTICIBIDZ are small animals, nocturnal in habits, slow in movement and covered with a soft, thick, woolly fur. They are contained in four genera: Loris with two species; NyctTIcEBus with eleven species and subspecies; Arcto- CEBUS with two and Prropicticus with four species. The eyes are large and the ears erect; the limbs subequal; the tarsi short, and the tail is either short, rudimentary or wanting altogether. The third upper premolar is smaller than the first and possesses one large external cusp, and the last upper molar varies in the number of its cusps in the different genera, being quadricusped in Loris, tricusped in Nycticesus and ArcToceBus, and bicusped in PERopIcTICUus.

In this paper the author separates the Slender Loris from Cey- lon as a species distinct from the Indian and names it Lemur - gracilis ceylonicus, unmindful of the fact that Linnzus’ species came from Ceylon, and that the name ceylonicus had been already bestowed on the animal. 1908. Cabrera, in Boletin Sociedad Espanola de Historia Natural, Madrid. Dr. Cabrera here points out the error committed by Mr. Lydek- ker and renames the Indian Loris LYDEKKERIANUS. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES. The two species which represent the genus at the present time have a rather restricted dispersion in the localities they frequent. L. TARDIGRADUS is apparently confined to the Island of Ceylon, where it is called according to Tennent, the Ceylon Sloth. The other species L,. LYDEKKERIANUS is found in the southern part of the Indian Penin- sula at a low elevation on the Malabar coast, and in the forests of the eastern Ghats, where according to Jerdon it is common. It is very difficult, however, to determine accurately the dispersion of small mammals such as these, whose habits are strictly nocturnal, for it is 18 EORIS not impossible for them to reside in a locality covered by dense forests and be quite unknown to the people inhabiting the district.

Mr. Lydekker, in the Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1904, p. 346, decided that the animals from India and Ceylon were separable, one being a race of the other, but unfortunately he selected the one from Ceylon as new, and conferred upon it the name of Loris gracilis zey- lonicus which was preoccupied by L. ceylonicus given by Fischer, (Anat. Maki, p. 28, t. 7, 8, 9, and 18), also to the Ceylon form. In the next species the tangle caused by Mr. Lydekker conferring a name upon the wrong animal was unravelled by Dr. Cabrera.

This small group of night-loving animals is essentially one of the Oriental Region, ranging in India, Arakan, Assam, Siam, Annam, Tenasserim, Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, Banka, Java and Borneo, the Natuna Group and the Philippines. The N. coucaNne ranges to the east of the Bay of Bengal, Burma and possibly Assam, but it is practically impossible to define its boundaries as it has been so con- fused with N. c. cinereus, and it may eventually be ascertained, that, these species now considered distinct, are not so in reality. The dispersal of N. c. cinereus, which is smaller than N. coucana, is supposed to be in Siam and Cochin China, but it cannot be said that these boundaries are accurately defined, nor can they be, until, through the acquisition of ample material, the exact status of the two forms is determined. In Annam, N. pyGmMaus was discovered and in Tenasserim N. TENASSERIMENSIS occurs, its range unknown, while N. MALAIANUus is found in the Malay Peninsula and on the west coast of Sumatra. In this Island also N. HILLERI has been NVCTICEBUS 23 procured, but its range is unknown; while in the Island of Banka, to the east of Sumatra, N. BANCANUS was procured. In Java N. JAVANI- cus is a resident, while N. BORNEANUS represents the genus in Borneo. On Bungaron Island of the Natuna Group, N. NATUNZ was discovered, and from somewhere in the Philippine Archipelago, locality unknown, N. MENAGENSIS was brought. In coloration these animals differ con- siderably even among members of the same species, and the hue of the dorsal stripe, usually a very conspicuous marking, varies greatly both in color and extent. Some animals have a conspicuous spot on the crown of the head, others are without this, and the presence or absence of this coloration has been utilized for arranging the different forms into two groups. The manner in which the temporal ridges approxi- mate and form a sagittal crest has served also for the arrangements into groups of the known forms, and each method has answered fairly well, although in a non adult animal the skulls fail to indicate whether the temporal ridges will, in the fully mature individual, produce by joining together, a sagittal crest or not. The number of upper incisors varies between two and four, and it is difficult to determine from lack of material, the exact reason for this, whether it is an individual peculiarity, or a character of scientific importance. At the present time this question cannot be satisfactorily answered, but it would seem that, from such evidence as we have, the major portion would indicate individual variation, caused however neither by age nor sex.

Type locality. Tenasserim. Genl. Char. Dorsal stripe bifurcating on the forehead and encir- cling the eyes. Color. “Pale rufescent.” Major Tickell appears to be the only one who has seen this animal, and Blanford reproduces Tickell’s drawing in his work on the Fauna of British India. The manner in which the dorsal stripe bifurcates on the forehead, each stripe passing forward and encircling the eyes, is cer- tainly peculiar and unlike that of any other member of the genus. Before its distinctness can be established satisfactorily, Tenasserim specimens must be procured and properly compared with examples from other parts of India. Blanford quoting from Tickell’s notes states, that this animal is purely nocturnal and arboreal, and feeds on leaves and shoots of trees, fruits, bird’s eggs, and young birds. It has been observed to raise itself on its hind legs and throw itself upon an insect. As a rule it is silent or only utters a feeble, croaking sound, but when angry and about to bite it emits a tolerably loud grunt or growl. When captured it is at first apt to be savage and prone to bite, but soon becomes very gentle and docile. This animal is tolerably common in the Tenasserim provinces and Arakan, but being strictly nocturnal in its habits, is seldom seen. It inhabits the densest forests and never by choice leaves the trees. Its movements are slow, but it climbs readily, and grasps with great tenacity. When placed on the ground it can pro- ceed if frightened, in a wavering kind of trot, the limbs placed at right angles. It sleeps rolled up in a ball, its head and hands buried between its thighs, and wakes up at the dusk of evening tc commence its noc- turnal rambles. The female bears but one young at a time. 26 NYCLICGEBVUS NycrTicEBus coucane Boddert. Tardigradus coucang Bodd., Elench. Anim., 1784, p. 67. Nycticebus bengalensis Fisch., Anat.

This is the larger and possibly more common form of NycrIceE- Bus found east of the Bay of Bengal. Its distinctness as a separate species, from N. c. cinereus cannot yet be established with certainty, as the material available is not sufficient for definite decisions to be reached. Blanford (1. c.) says that this species is purely nocturnal and arboreal. It feeds on leaves, shoots of trees, insects, bird’s eggs and young birds. It is generally silent or utters a feeble crackling sound. If angry, however, and ready to bite it makes a low growl or grunt. In captivity it soon becomes docile and very gentle, but when first captured is apt to be savage. NVCTICEBUS 27 NyYcTICEBUS COUCANG CINEREUS (A. Milne-Edwards). Nycticebus cereus A. Milne-Edw., Ann.

Specimen British Museum. The type in the Paris Museum is greatly faded from exposure to the light, and there is not much more than a trace of the original coloring left on the sides of body and shoulders, but more is to be seen on the dorsal line and rump, although these parts are much paler evidently than during the life of the animal. There are no markings on the face, and only a pale narrow reddish yellow line on center of head from between the ears. The hands and feet were probably silvery gray, but now are a dirty or sooty gray, as the accumulated dust of many years has obscured in a great degree the original coloring. The side of the body turned away from the light in the case is darker than the other, and shows more of the reddish or orange tint, but it is impossible to say what was the original color. The head is paler than the body and is a grayish white, same color as the arms and legs. 28 NVCT EE EB Uns This is the smaller style of Nycticesus, allied to N. coucane, and whether or not they represent two distinct species cannot at the present time be decided. The material available for these, as well as some others of the members of this genus is not yet sufficiently ample, and many additional authenticated specimens are required before the status of these animals can be established. For the present therefore they are permitted to remain as distinct species, although it is most probable, that, in the event of their remaining apart, the NV. c. cinereus will only hold a subspecific rank, as a race of N. couCcANG, as is given to it here. > NyctTIcEBus JAVANICUS E.

Capt. Flower, writing of the Siamese form under the name of tardigradus, states that in captivity this species will eat bananas, mangoes, and bread and milk. It is also very expert at catching small birds; and climbs about at night with considerable speed. “At one time,” he writes, “I used to sleep in a hammock swung in a veranda close to a cage of ‘Kongkangs’, and when lying awake on moonlight nights had good opportunities of observing their habits. They could squeeze through the bars of their cage (though I never could make out how they got their bodies through such narrow openings as there were) and roam about; usually they were back in the cage by daylight ; sometimes they remained absent a day or two, and on one occasion two individuals never returned to me. One kept by itself, made a nice interesting pet, but when there were more than one, I found they would resent being handled and bite; their bite may be very severe as I know from painful experience, but the stories of its being dangerously poisonous to human beings, are hard to believe. The young are carried under the mother’s belly, holding on tight by all four hands, until they almost equal her in size. Many strange powers are attributed to this animal by the natives of the countries it inhabits; there is hardly an event in life to man, woman or child, or even domestic animals, that may not be influenced for better or worse by the Slow Loris, alive or dead, or by any separate part of it, and apparently one cannot usually tell at the time, that one is under its supernatural power. Thus a Malay may commit a crime he did not premeditate, and then find that an enemy had buried a particular part of a Loris under his threshold, which had, unknown to him, compelled him to act to his own dis- advantage. Its fur is used to cure wounds, and a sailing ship with a NV CRIGEBUS 31 live Loris on board is said never to be becalmed. But its life is not a happy one, for it is continually seeing ghosts; that is why it hides its face in its hands.” This is a well-defined race of N. coucane, characterized by absence of face markings, and the general gray color distributed generally, but with a slight reddish tinge on the flanks and outer edge of limbs.

Head round; snout short and flat; eyes brown, large and round, and slightly prominent; ears about 9/16 in. and hardly projecting beyond hair of head. Neck so short as to give head appear- ance of being set squarely on shoulders. Nails of hands flat. Hind legs very crooked, (bowed) with feet turned sharply inwards. General color light rufous, hairs being dark at base, then gray changing to light rufous, with very short gray tips. “White line between eyes extending backward 1 in. from base of nose. Face around eyes dark rufous, the markings extending upwards on forehead. The effect produced is a heart-shaped mark of dark rufous on face, the point of heart being on forehead, the eyes occupying two lobes and separated by the white mark which does not run to tip of heart. Sides of head at back, and of neck, have hairs broadly tipped with gray. Broad stripe of dark brown extends backward for 5Y in. along spine tapering to a point. Hairs of arms lighter rufous than that of back. Back of head gray, nearly white. Back of feet grayish. Hair on back of body, arms and legs thick and soft, making a fine fur like that of GaLEopirHEcus. On under surface of body hair is thinner and somewhat lighter in color than on back. About the genitals is buffy white. Measurements. “Total length, 11% in. Tail, 54 in.” “This curious little animal is known to the natives of the region it inhabits as cocane. An adult specimen from which the description was taken, was kept alive by us for seven days. Its movements were sluggish except in biting when its sudden and unexpected activity proved a painful surprise. It moved with equal ease along the upper and lower sides of a small branch or rope, and progressed quite as rapidly backward as forward. On the floor it was not at home and presented a most ludicrous appearance, tumbling along on all fours with feet nearly as far apart as those of a turtle, and its body barely NEVA CoD CFE BUS) 33 raised from the boards. It spent most of the day asleep, rolled up into a furry ball with its head buried between its thighs. If disturbed when actively climbing about, it had a curious way of folding its hands over its eyes and from hence earned the name of ‘shame face’ which it shares with the Tarsius spectrum, (T. PHILIPPINENSIS). It had two notes, a low complaining grunt, and a sharp squeal. During its con- finement it took little food, turning up its nose at lemons, but occasion- ally eating a little banana or egg. We had no insects or small mammals to offer it. In drinking, it lapped up the water like a dog. After five days of semi-starvation its strength seemed almost unimpaired, and it showed remarkable tenacity of life.” The above was taken from the Zoologischer Anzeiger, ostensibly by Dr. Nachtrieb, but he in a letter to Dr. Lyon disclaimed the authorship and stated that the article was probably by Mr. Dean Worcester. Having no genus the name could not stand, but the specific name, MENAGENSIS, was afterwards coupled with Nycticrsus by *Troues- sart, {Stone and Rehn, and {Lydekker (1. c.) and so it came properly into the species of that genus.

Body rather slender; head oval; muzzle blunt, dog like; eyes large; lower phalanges of hands and feet, except of thumb, united in the skin; two upper joints free; index finger reduced to a tubercle, without a nail. Limbs subequal, the hind ones being slightly longer than the fore limbs. The feet are larger than the hands; the great toe has a rather large fleshy tubercle at its base on the inner side, and is opposable to the other toes; the nails are thin and flat except that of the second toe which is like a claw, being thin, convex and acute. Ears erect; two transverse ridges lie above the auditory meatus, with fine hairs on the inner margins standing upright. Unlike the species of the genus PrropicTicus, the processes of the cervical vertebre do not project through the skin. Tail rudimentary. Anterior upper molars with four cusps, and oblique ridges; last upper molar with three cusps; last lower molar has five cusps. The species of this genus are nocturnal in their habits and move about but seldom during the day, and it is on this account, probably, that hardly anything has been recorded of their mode of life.

Benito River, 50 miles from mouth; 500 to 1,000 feet elevation; French Congo, West Africa. Type in British Museum. Geogr. Distr. French Congo, West Africa; range unknown. Genl. Char. Smaller than A. CALABARENSIS; tail very short, ter- minal hairs stiff, compressed ; fifth finger reaches only just beyond the first joint of fourth finger. Skull: premaxille project in front of incisors ; incisive foramina very small. Color., Upper parts bright golden red, beneath paler reddish yellow suffused with ashy gray. Ex type British Museum. Measurements. Total length, 270; tail, 18; hind foot, 38; ear, 30, (Collector). Ex type British Museum. De Winton states the skull was much damaged. This species described by de Winton from an unique example collected by Mr. Bates, is quite unlike in general appearance the only ARCTOCEBUS 37 other known form of the genus. Unfortunately the skull could not be found in the British Museum Collection. Mr. Bates says (1. c.) “The single specimen | sent to the Museum is the only one of this animal I have ever seen. I found it in a village on the Benito River where it had just been killed by a native, who did not know what to call it. However I have sometimes heard from natives of a rare beast like the Potto, which must be the same.” 38 PER ODIPORECUS GENUS 4. PERODICTICUS. POTTOS. 2-2 1 8—3 de Gg? 1!
