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.

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

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-

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. NEMESTRINUS) ; Papo thir-
teen; CyYNOPITHECUS twelve; Macus twelve; ALtouattra, Laco-
THRIX, and ATELEUS fourteen; CreBus fourteen, but last pair very
short almost rudimentary in some species; PITHECcIA twelve and thir-
teen (P. CHIROPOTES) ; CALLICEBUS and CALLITHRIX twelve or thirteen ;
Aortus fourteen; SAIMIRI thirteen; NycTICEBUS sixteen; PERODICTICUS
fifteen. Of the vertebre Pan, Ponco and GoriILia have 4 lumbar, 3
sacral, and 5 caudal; Hytopates has 5 lumbar; Cotosus 7 lumbar, 3
sacral and 28 caudal; PyGATHRIXx 6 and 7 lumbar and 3 sacral; Lasi-
opyGa 6 and 7 lumbar, 3 sacral, 26 caudal; Piruecus, Macus and
CynopitHecus 7 lumbar and 3 sacral, while Macus has 8 caudal,
and CynopiTHecus has 5; Papio 6 lumbar and 3 sacral; ALOUATTA
INTRODUCTION xvii
5 lumbar, while LacorHrix and ATELEUS have but 4; Crsus has
5 and 6 lumbar, while Aotus has 8, and 24 caudal; PirHecia 6 lumbar;
CaLLIcEBUs and Saimiri 7 lumbar, the last genus with 28 to 30 caudal ;
CALLITHRIX has 6 and 7 lumbar, and 27 to 33 caudal; Nycricegus 6
and 8 lumbar, and 8 and 11 caudal, and Peropicticus 7 lumbar and
20 caudal vertebre.
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.

GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES
By drawing a line across the American Continent north of Mexico,
then passing to the east across the Atlantic and southward around the
Cape of Good Hope, (leaving the African Continent to the north),
then by Wallace’s line between the Indian and Papuan divisions of the
Malay Archipelago, (the boundary going between Formosa and the
Philippines), and then south and east to the Samoan Archipelago,
Ixviii INTRODUCTION
Huxley has divided the globe into a northern and southern portion
called respectively Arctogeea and Notogza. 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. IMPUDENS; P. KARI-
MONI; P. BINTANGENSIS; P. DOLLMANI; P. PUMILLUS; P. MANDIBU-
LARIS; P. LAUTENSIS; P. LINGUNGENSIS; P. SIRHASSENENSIS; P.
CARIMAT# ; and 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. HILGERTI; L. STtUHLMANNI; L. AURORA; L. BUDGETTI;

thirty-five in all. The South African Subregion has L. atpicuxaris; L.
RUFOVIRIDIS ; L. a. beirensis; L. s. mosambicus; L. PYGERYTHRA; and L.
LABIATA ; Six species. 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. FLAVICAUDA; P. ROBINSONI; P.

NATUNZ; P. RHIONIS; P. CANA; P. SIAMENSIS; P. CATEMANA; P.
AYGULA; P. FUSCO-MURINA; P. SABANA; and 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

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.

The family name of the Anthropoid Apes has been consistently
misspelled wherever it appears in this work, and the error was de-
tected too late to correct it on the earlier pages. 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

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.

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.

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.

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.”

SANGHIR TARSIER.
Type locality. Island of Sanghir, Philippine Archipelago.
Genl. Char. 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.

JAVAN TARSIER.
Type locality. Banca, near Jeboos, Java.
Genl. Char. Tail nearly naked; tarsi haired to ankle; only two
upper incisors, and five teeth in molar series on each side both jaws.
Color. “General color brown inclining to gray; on the breast, ab-
domen and interior of extremities it is gray, inclining to whitish; a
rufous tint is sparingly dispersed over the upper parts which shows
itself most on the head and extremities ; the naked parts of the tail near
the root are considerably darker than the extremity.” Horsfield.
TARSIUS 15
This is evidently a young animal with the teeth not yet fully de-
veloped. From Horsfield’s description given above it is impossible to
say to which species it is nearest, and, therefore, for the present it
is left as a separate form. The only specimen from Java I know is in
the Leyden Museum in alcohol, and of course cannot be trusted for
color. It has, however, four upper incisors.

Fur soft, thick, woolly ; muzzle narrow, pointed; eyes very large;
ears small, tip naked; limbs long, slender; tail absent. 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.

LITERATURE OF THE SPECIES.
1758. Linneus Systema Nature.
The slender Loris from Ceylon was here first described as
Lemur TARDIGRADUS; and this nomenclature was followed by
Erxleben, Gmelin, and Schreber.
1784. Boddert, Elenchus Animalium.
The genus Tardigradus was here instituted for the Lemur
TARDIGRADUS Linn., but being preoccupied by Brisson in
Bradipodide could not be again employed.
1796. E. Geotfroy Saint-Hilaire, in Magasin Encyclopédique.
The Linnzan species Lemur TARDIGRADUS was here renamed
Lemur gracilis, and Loris established as the generic name.
1804. Fischer-de-Waldheim (G). Anatomie der Maki und der thnen
verwandten Thiere.
Lemur TaRDIGRADUS Linn., was here redescribed as Lemur
ceylonicus.
1904. Lydekker, in Proceedings of the Zoological Society of London.
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.

men as was clearly proved by Stone and Rehn, (Proc. Acad. Nat.

Bus. 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 is the southern Indian species of Loris, which has always
been called L. TARDIGRADUS, authors ignoring the fact, as has already
been shown, that Linnzus gave that name to the Loris of Ceylon. Dr.
Cabrera corrected the error (1. c.) into which Mr. Lydekker fell, and
gave to the Indian animal the name LYDEKKERIANUS.

GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES.
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.

NYCTICEBUS TENASSERIMENSIS.
Nycticebus tardigradus Tenasserim variety. Blanf., Faun. Brit.
Ind., 1888-91, pp. 45, 46, fig. 12.
TENASSERIM SLOW LORIS.
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.

SLOW LORIS.
Type locality. Bengal.
Geogr. Distr. Bengal, Upper Burma, possibly Annam.
Genl. Char. Head with lines indistinct; dorsal line disappearing
towards crown of head.
Color. Rufescent gray above, paler beneath; dorsal stripe broad,
deep brown, expanding on the crown where it is rufous including the
ears; orbital ring brown. (Blanford).
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.

Geogr. Distr. Siam, Cochin China.
Color. General color clear gray with a reddish tinge on side of
body, shoulders, and outer side of limbs; orbital rings black; dorsal
line from center of head to tail dark reddish chestnut, sometimes grow-
ing paler on lower parts; no face markings; ears rufous; under parts
grayish white. Ex type in Paris 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.

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.

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.

PHILIPPINE SLOW LORIS.
Type locality, —_————————_ ?. Native name Cocane.
Geogr. Distr. Philippine Islands.
Genl. Char. 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.

GOLDEN POTTO.
Type locality. 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.”

Bosman, who first made known the existence of this animal, gives
a quaint description of it and its habits, with a rude drawing. He
states, “Draught of a creature, by the Negroes called Potto, but known
to us by the name of Sluggard, doubtless from its lazy, sluggish nature,
a. whole day being enough for it to advance ten steps forward.
“Some writers affirm, that when this creature has climbed upon a
Tree, he doth not leave it until he hath eaten up not only the Fruit,
but the leaves entirely ; and then descends fat and in very good case in
order to get up into another Tree; but before his slow pace can com-
pass this he becomes as poor and lean as ’tis possible to imagine; and
if the tree be high, or the way anything distant, and he meets nothing
on his journey, he invariably dies of Hunger betwixt one tree and the
other. Thus ’tis represented by others, but I will not undertake for the
truth of it, though the Negroes are apt to believe something like it.
“This is such a horrible ugly Creature that I don’t believe any-
thing besides so very disagreeable is to be found on the whole Earth;
the Print is a very lively description of it. Its fore feet are very like
Hands, the Head, strangely disproportionately large; that from which
this Print was taken was of a pale Mouse color, but it was then very
young, and his skin yet smooth, but when old, as I saw one at Elmina
in the year 1699, ’tis red and covered with a sort of Hair as thick set
as Flocks of Wool. I know nothing more of this animal than that ’tis
impossible to look on him without Horrour, and that he hath nothing
very particular but his odious Ugliness.”
PERODICTICUS 41
Poor Potto! not a very flattering portrait indeed, but the earliest
authors not infrequently indulged in similar descriptions of strange
and little known animals. The Potto is strictly nocturnal in its habits
and would not be likely to go “anything distant” during the daytime,
and although its movements are slow and performed with deliberation,
it would survive a sufficient length of time to reach a new food supply,
and as it is a dweller of trees it is not likely to attempt any considerable
journey on terra firma.

palatal length, 20; breadth of braincase, 30; median length of nasals,
15; length of upper molar series, 18; length of mandible, 29; length of
lower molar series, 16. Ex type P. batesi in British Museum.
In color this is a very variable species, examples from the same
locality differing in this respect from each other. There are six speci-
mens of this Potto in the British Museum from the Benito and Ja
rivers in the French Congo, West Africa, differing very considerably
from each other in the hue and marking of their coats. The prevailing
color above is black and chestnut red, but the underparts vary from
dark gray mixed with red to ashy gray, and one mounted example from
the Benito River, which however may have faded somewhat, has no
black at all on the upper parts which are yellowish gray about the
shoulders, becoming red on lower back and thighs. The ends ‘of the
tails in some specimens are black as described by Bouvier. It would
seem to be quite evident from an examination of the examples in the
Paris and British Museums that P. epwarpsi and P. BATEsI represent
the same species of which Bouvier’s animal is one of the dark style,
and the type of P. atest one of the pale hue.
Mr. Bates, who learned about this animal in Southern Cameroon,
although on account of the density of the forests, he was unable to meet
with one himself, states that “the two or three species of PERopic-
TIcus of which the names have been sent to me I have not learned to
distinguish with certainty; in the little I have to say I must mention
44 RERIO DRE TINCUEsS:
them together. They are found in the daytime curled up asleep in the
trees, tightly clinging to a branch. So tight is their grip of the branch
that specimens have sometimes come to me mutilated in the hands, the
natives who captured them declaring that it was only by cutting the
fingers that they could loosen the animal’s hold.
“Pottos are sometimes caught in traps placed on a horizontal pole
or bridge crossing on an open place between two pieces of forest, such
as a narrow place in a garden clearing or a stream. The animal crosses
on a pole in preference to descending to the ground. One specimen
was killed at night on the roof of a house to which it seemed to have
wandered from the overhanging plantain tops.”

with terminal discs; tail long, thick, bushy. Skull: braincase round,
high, broad; muzzle short; squamosal region inflated; upper incisors
small subequal, with posterior cusp on cingulum; diastema posterior
to canine; first upper premolar with one main cusp and two supple-
mentary ones on each side; middle premolar with three cusps; last
molar, in some forms, is tricuspidate, in others quadricuspidate; the
last internal cusp wanting. Tarsus long, calcaneum over one third the
length of tibia ; tail longer than the body.
The species of this genus are all African, and are remarkable for
their large ears, and elongated tarsi, the latter much exceeding in
length the arms. They have four incisors in both the upper and lower

jaws, and in size are about equal to a small rat. Various genera have
been proposed for these animals, some of which may be advantageously
used as subgenera to include certain species with special affinities for
one another, but the groups can only be properly separated into two,
Gataco and HemicaAaco, distinguished by the presence or absence of
a cusp on the heel of the second upper premolar.

MicroceBus) ; and O. DEMIDOFFI (Fischer).
O. galago Schreb., non-existent, is divided into three sections,
but the sections are treated as synonyms. These are O. teng
(Sundevall), with sENNAARIENSIS as its synonym; O. SENE-
GALENSIS (Geoffroy); and O. moholi (Smith), with a new

placed GARNETTI; CRASSICAUDATA ; MONTEIRI and PALLIDA; and
in the second are included ALLENI; moholi = SENEGALENSIS;
SENEGALENSIS; SENNAARIENSIS and DEMIDOFFI. The four
species of the Otogale group are recognized as valid at the
present time, but of those given under GaLaco, moholi is
a synonym of SENEGALENSIS Geoff., the name sennaariensis is
antedated by Lesson in 1840. Three species are mentioned as
not seen by the Author, G. conspicillatus = SENEGALENSIS Geoff.,
_O. peli Temm., = HEMIGALAGO DEMIDOFFI Fischer, juv. and
O. senegalensis Peters, = G. s. mossambicus Peters.

H. DEMIDOFFI. G. MONTEIRI is considered to be merely a pale
variety of G. CRASSICAUDATUs; the range of G, SENEGALENSIS is
given from Senegambia and Sennaar to Cafraria, the form
from Sennaar not being recognized as distinct.

toire Naturelle de Paris.
A review of the genus GaLaAco is here given, with a full
description of H. aNomurus for the first time. The Author
accepts three sub-genera, Otolemur, Otolicnus and HEMIGALAGO,
and reviews the different forms belonging to each and dis-
- cusses their various claims for distinct rank. He recognizes the
following as species. Under Otolemur he accepts G. cRassI-
CAUDATUS; G. MONTEIRI; G. GARNETTI; and G. agisymbanus =
G. CRASSICAUDATUS. In Otolicnus he gives G. ELEGANTULUS; G.
SENEGALENSIS and G. ALLENI; and in Hemicaraco he places G.
ANOMURUS and G. DEMIDOFFI.
The Author labored under the disadvantage of not having a
personal knowledge of many of the forms he rejected, which, if
he had had the opportunity of examining might have caused him
to reach different conclusions in some cases.

GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES AND SUBSPECIES.
The Bush Babys, by which name the members of the genera GALA-
co and Hemicataco are known, are found upon the African Con-
tinent, between Sennaar and Natal on the east, and Senegal and Por-
tuguese West Africa on the west. They are also natives of the islands
of Zanzibar on the east coast, and Fernando Po in the Gulf of Guinea
on the west. As is the case with most of the groups among the Pri-
mates, it cannot be said that the distribution of the members of these
genera are satisfactorily known, and some may have a much greater
dispersion than is here recorded. It is quite evident that distinct
forms are fairly numerous, but the material at present available is not
sufficient, (a number of species or races being represented by only a
few examples, and from either a single, or a very limited number of
localities), for a definite geographical distribution to be given. There-
fore the following ranges assigned to the various members of the genus
can only be regarded as approximate, based upon our present rather
imperfect knowledge of their habitats, and subject to future rearrange-
ment as the acquisition of more material shall serve to increase our
knowledge.
GALAGO 51
A majority of the various species and races is found on the eastern
portion of the Continent, extending from Somaliland, Sennaar and the
vicinity of the White Nile below Khartoum on the north, to Mashona-
land on the south, including the Island of Zanzibar. In the most
northerly part of this eastern section at Faffan, near Harrar in Somali-
land G. DUNNI was discovered; G. SENNAARIENSIS is found ranging
southward to Ankole west of Victoria Nyanza, and Nyassaland, and
then as far as Mashonaland up to an elevation of 5,000 feet. Next,
in the Boran Galla country northeast of Lake Rudolph in Abyssinia,
G. GALLARUM has been obtained, its range however not having been yet
ascertained. At Katwi on the Athi River in British East Africa, G.
HINDsI, and at Escarpment Station, G. KIKUYUENSIS have been
obtained. From Mombassa on the coast comes G. LASIOTIS, recogniz-
able by the white tip to the tail, but how far it may extend into the
interior, or whether it is confined to the forest along the coast has
not been determined. In Uganda to the north and west of Victoria
Nyanza, H. tHomasi belonging to the genus HEmica.aco is found,
the species having been taken at Dumo and Fort Beni on the Semliki
River. Whether it is confined to Uganda, or extends its range beyond
the river into the forests of the Congo Free State is not known. At
Kirui, Elgon, 6,000 feet altitude, G. braccatus albipes was discovered.
German East Africa contains several species of GALaGo, and in the
northern part on the heights of Mt. Kilimanjaro, G. BRACCATUS is
found. On the banks of the Pangani River not far from the coast G.
PANGANIENSIS has been procured, while in the interior on the Ugalla
River east of Lake Tanganyika, the rather remarkable species G.
BADIUS was discovered. The island of Zanzibar has apparently two
species, G. ZANZIBARICUS, and G. CRASSICAUDATUS, the latter under the
name of G. agisymbanus, but there seem to be no adequate reasons for
separating the island form specifically from the animal dwelling on the
coast opposite and ranging through the forests as far south as Quili-
mane, Mozambique, where also G. KIRKI is found. Coming from
Nyassaland and extending its range into the interior to Tete on the
Zambesi in British Central Africa, G. MossAMBICUS occurs. In this
district in Nyassaland south of the Lake in the mountains, and also
from Zomba to the southeast of Lake Nyassa we have G. NYASS&,
which ranges southward in Portuguese Southeast Africa to Inhambane.
South of this, in the vicinity of Delagoa Bay, G. GRANTI is met with.
From Zululand comes G. zuLUENsIS, and finally completing the list
52 GALAGO
of eastern and central African species, in Natal we have G. GARNETTI,
the most southern member of the genus.
On the western side of the continent, the most northern species
is G. SENEGALENSIS from Senegal south to Angola; at Yola, Nigeria,
G. PUPULUs has been obtained, and from Cameroon, we have G.
CAMERONENSIS, G. ELEGANTULUS, G. e. pallidus, and G. ALLENI; G.
elegantulus tonsor was procured on the Benito River, Guinea. In
Equatorial Africa from the mountains, near the Equator, exact lo-
cality unknown, G. e. apicalis was procured by Du Chaillu; and at
Mombuttu, H. DEMIDoFFI was obtained by Emin Pasha. On the Gold
Coast H. DEMIDOFFI is found ranging south to Gaboon in French
Congo, where also G. ALLENI and G. a. gabonensis are met with, and
on the banks of the Kemo River in the same Province, G. a. batesi and
H. ANOMURUS were procured. From Cuio Bay south of Loando,
Angola, Portuguese West Africa, G. MONTEIRI, one of the larger mem-
bers of the genus, was obtained. On Fernando Po, an island in the
Bight of Biaffra, Gulf of Guinea, three species dwell, G. ALLENI, G.
elegantulus pallidus, and H. demidoffi poensis.

G. agisymbanus appears to be the same as the present species, for
I can find no characters upon which they can be separated. Coquerel’s
type, which is in the Paris Museum, is a young animal. The following
is a description taken from it. Head and entire upper parts, and outer
side of limbs dull russet, inclining to rusty on top of head and fore-
arms ; under parts pale greenish yellow ; hands and feet blackish brown;
tail reddish, inclining to blackish brown on apical portion. The adult
is dull brown on the upper parts.
56 GALAGO
Geoffroy’s type is in the Paris Museum, but is so faded that but
little of the original color remains. The tail has lost most of the hair
on the apical half, and the example is in such a condition that a descrip-
tion of it would only serve to mislead. Kirk states (1. c.) that at
Luabo and Quilimane, this species frequents the Mangrove forests and
wooded country outside. In captivity it.eats flesh, vegetables, fruits
and insects; in its native state it is fond of palm wine, robbing the
pots used by the natives to collect it. This often leads to its capture
when it drinks to excess. During the day it remains quiet in some
shaded tree top. At night it is very active, leaping from frond to
frond, or crossing from one cocoanut palm to another. Coquerel
(1. c.) says that this species, (under the name of Otolemur agisym-
banus), was brought to him from the interior of the island, while he
was staying in Zanzibar, and is common in the forests which cover the
northern part. He kept one alive for fifteen days, and it was very
gentle. It slept during the day covered by its long tail, but at night it
was active and exhibited an extreme petulence. It was fed on fruit
but would eat anything, and devoured eagerly meat both raw and
cooked.

GALAGO 57
This species is about the same size in body as G. HINDsI, but has
a considerably shorter and much darker tail; it is much darker brown
color throughout. When lying side by side, G. HINDsI appears like a
gray animal in comparison. The ears of the present species are about
a third larger than those of G. H1NDs1 both in length and width. In
their dried and shrunken state they measure 31 mm. in length and 27
mm. in width, while those of G. HINDsI are 24 mm. long by 22 mm.
wide, and as the collector's measurement of the ears of the latter
species was 39 mm. in length, allowing for the same shrinkage those
of G. ZULUENSIS would be 8 or 10 mm. longer. There is such a vast
difference in the size of the skull and teeth that they admit of no
comparison. In color G. ZULUENSIs is like G. GRASSICAUDATUS, but has
a much smaller skull it being midway between G. crAssicAuDATUS and
G. HINDsI with all the differences such a disparity of size would create.
G. GARNETT! is of an entirely different color, but about the same size.

MONTEIRI’S GALAGO.
Type locality. Cuio Bay, south of Loando, Angola, West Africa.
Type not in British Museum.
Geogr. Distr. Middle coast, West Africa.
Genl. Char. Size large; ears very large, naked on outer apical
edges; hairs on face short; feet and toes broad, discs rounded; tail
very long.
Color. General hue uniform pale gray over upper part of body,
outer side of limbs, and entire tail; orbital ring black; hands and feet
dark brownish gray; ears black; middle of breast and abdomen white ;
flanks grayish white. Some specimens are mouse gray on body and
tail.
Measurements. Total length, 1118; tail, 408. Skull: occipito-nasal
length, 70; Hensel, 57; zygomatic width, about 40, (broken) ; inter-
temporal width, 19; palatal length, 28; breadth of braincase, 31;
median length of nasals, 20; length of upper molar series, 23; length of
mandible, 47; length of lower molar series, 20.
This is one of the largest species of the genus, with a very long
bushy tail. While‘the color among individuals varies somewhat, the
dominant hue is always gray, ranging from a whitish to a mouse gray,
with occasionally reddish tints appearing on head and back. The type
60 GALAGO
could not be found in the British Museum. It probably never was
in the collection. The identification of this animal as a new species
should undoubtedly be placed to the credit of the late Mr. A. D. Bart-
lett, Superintendent of the London Zoological Society’s Gardens, but
his MS. having been shown to Dr. Gray, it was included by him in his
paper on the species of Lemuroids under Mr. Bartlett’s MS. name in
an earlier part of the Society’s proceedings, and thus became G. MoNn-
TEIRI Gray, manuscript names having no standing. Mr. Bartlett had
the type alive, and states it was “very gentle and slept much during
the day, and fed on fruit, bread, milk and other sweet things, par-
ticularly bananas. It had the power of turning its ears back and
folding them up when at rest. When moving about or in search of
food they, (the ears) spread out and stand upward and forward,
reminding one of the Aye-Aye; but when folded back and down, the
animal’s face bears a strong resemblance to the Douroucouli. The
pupils of the eyes are oval and vertical.”

GALAGO 61
This animal has the same gray color as G. MONTEIRI and would
seem to be more a representative of that species on the eastern coast
of Africa, than a near relative of G. cRASSICAUDATUS, which is quite
differently colored. It is easily recognized from G. MONTEIRI by the
russet coloring on the head and middle of back, and the darker tail. It
would seem advisable to recognize it as a distinct species, and not as
a race of G. CRASSICAUDATUS as Gray made it. This is one of the
largest species of GALAGo, and has a very long and bushy tail. Like
other species of the genus it is arboreal and nocturnal in its habits, and
is rarely seen during the day, “sleeping in some hollow tree, waking up
at sundown, at which time and throughout the whole night its peculiar
cry can be heard. At Eshowe it frequents the trees close to the houses,
and is said to be extremely fond of fowl’s eggs. The specimens
secured were shot at night with the aid of a dark lantern, flashing it
suddenly into a tree where one was heard calling. This is a favorite
method with the natives for obtaining them, by whom the skin is
highly valued. Specimens from Natal seem much browner than those
from Zululand.” (Grant’s notes on Zululand Mammals; Thos. and
Schwann, |. c.).
In another paper on Mammals from Portuguese South Africa,
Thos. and Wrought. (1. c.) quote from Mr. Grant’s notes as follows on
this species.
“Very common in the forests, where they appear to consort
together in small parties. The species has a variety of calls, none of
which however are similar to that of GaLAco GARNETTI. Apparently
principally vegetarian, and feeding largely on the exudation from the
bark of certain trees. Strictly nocturnal, passing the day in hollow
trees.”

This animal is somewhat smaller than its relatives, G. CRASSI-
CAUDATUS and G. GARNETTI, the skull being very considerably smaller.
It also differs in its pale color, and the very long pale almost white tail.
It belongs to the group of which G. cRASSICAUDATUS is the represen-
tative member. Two specimens are in the British Museum Collection
slightly varying in color, the paratype having a darker tail which
unfortunately has lost half of its length.

GALAGO KIKUYUENSIS Loénnberg.
Galago (Otolemur) kikyuensis Lonnb., Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., IX,
8th Ser., 1912, p. 64.
Type locality. Escarpment Station, British East Africa.
Color. “General colour pale greyish brown, somewhat darker on
head and upper neck, outside of limbs more chamois; throat and lower
side of neck with an ochre-yellow tinge; under side of body dirty white ;
hands and feet dark brown, inclining to blackish; tail dark brown,
gradually darkening to blackish towards the distal third, paler below.
Ears naked.”
Measurements. “Total length about 62 cm.; tail about equal to
head and body. Skull: greatest length, 61; basicranial length, 49;
zygomatic breadth, 41; palatal length, 23 ; length of upper molar series,
19.5.”
I have not seen a specimen of this animal, and as Herr Lonnberg
makes no reference to any species with which it may be compared, it
is difficult to assign it to its proper place in the genus. In size it seems
to be nearest to G. HiNDs1 Elliot, from Katwi, Athi River, British East
Africa, and in color appears to differ mainly in the underparts being
“dirty white” instead of white, “tail dark brown, gradually darkening
to blackish towards the distal third, paler below,” instead of tail above
pale wood brown, beneath whitish. It may be remarked that the type
localities of these two Bush-Babys are not far apart.
Without a careful comparison, it is impossible to state what claims
this animal has to a distinct specific rank. As it is impossible to de-
termine this at present, it is here given the benefit of any doubt that
may arise.
Subgenus 2. Otolicnus.
Size small; muzzle short; last upper molar may be tricuspidate or
quadricuspidate, but the last lower molar is always quinquicuspidate.
Angle of mandible produced backwards and slightly downward.

brought to me alive showed great powers of jumping. A monkey can
jump outwards and downwards and catch a branch, but this Galago
could jump out and up and catch hold of a branch. It died in the
hot sunshine when I was away from camp; it had probably never felt
sunshine before.”

This rather handsome species was obtained by Mr. A. B. Percival
on Mount Kilimanjaro, East Africa. While allied to G. GALLARUM
Thomas, it is easily distinguished from the type of that species by its
dark gray color, and the abruptness with which the buff and gray of
the legs come together. As is to be expected of an animal living upon
a high mountain the fur is thick and long. There are no appreciable
differences in the skulls of the two species.

Type locality. Mountains south of Lake Nyassa, Portuguese East

Genl. Char. Fur woolly; tail bushy; skull, much broken, exhibits
great differences from that of the species I call G. SENNAARIENSIS
from the White Nile southward to Ankole, west of the Victoria
Nyanza. The rostrum is long and more slender, and the nasals are
long and narrow; the palate is long and narrow and does not widen
out posteriorly to anything like the extent as seen in skulls of G. sEN-
NAARIENSIS; the anterior line of the orbit is in front of the first molar,
instead of in front of the third premolar as in the other species ; there
is only a slight rise of the frontal above the rostrum, thus making
GALAGO i 7]
the superior outline of the skull very much less rounded, indeed quite
flat as compared with that of G. SENNAARIENSIS. Of the braincase
only the frontals and parietals remain, the occipital region and bulle,
and lower portion of skull on one side even to the palate, having disap-
peared, so no comparison can be made beyond those already given.
Color. General hue above broccoli brown; outer side of arms
broccoli brown; legs cream buff; under parts and inner side of limbs
yellowish white ; cream buff on chest. Ex type in British Museum.
Measurements. Total length about 355 to end of hairs on tail ; tail,
185. Skull: from frontal suture to end of nasals, 27; median length
of nasals, 10; width of rostrum at canines, 7; length of palate,
15; width between last molars, 7; length of lower molar series, 13.
Ex type in British Museum.
The type in the British Museum Collection of skins and an ex-
ample in alcohol from Zomba, Nyassa, are all that are known of this
species. While the skin resembles in color G. GALLARUM more perhaps
than any other, the skull in its long and narrow rostral region, and
low crown is very different. The type was procured by Dr. Kirk when
he was accompanying Dr. Livingstone, the famous Explorer.

This is a pale species with a long bushy tail, and belongs to the
small forms of the GALAGO SENEGALENSIS group, and does not approach
very nearly in color to any of the other species. Mr. Grant, as quoted
by Messrs. Thomas and Wroughton, states that at Cogungo, Inham-
bane, it was “common and inhabited the forests. It is strictly noc-
turnal, sleeping during the day in hollow trees, where it may generally
be taken in small family parties. This species like many others is
eaten by the natives.”

SENEGAL GALAGO.
Type locality. Senegal, West Africa. Type in Paris Museum.
Geogr. Distr. Senegal, Angola, (Cameron).
Genl. Char. Ears large, bare; legs longer than arms; posterior
upper premolar smaller than the middle and posterior molars; pos-
terior premolar and first and second molars have a small cusp between
the two front cusps; upper incisors four.
Color. Head, Prout’s brown, the hairs tipped with gray; upper
parts dark gray washed with russet; outer side of legs cream buff;
under parts yellowish white; hands brown, feet blackish; tail, basal
portion similar to back, remainder burnt umber; a white streak
between eyes and nose; ears pale brown.
The type in the Paris Museum has top of head Prout’s brown,
shading into yellowish gray on the back of neck; rest of upper parts
pinkish buff, becoming more cream buff on outer side of limbs; under
parts, and inner side of limbs pale yellow; tail pale sooty brown;
hands and feet brownish yellow; ears yellow. The type has faded,
and exhibits at present a cream buff animal with a pinkish tinge on the
74 GALAGO
upper parts, and with a brown head and pale sooty brown tail. The
ears are very large, and yellow in their dried state. The orbits are the
same in color as the rest of the face, but other examples have black
orbital rings. This style was named conspicillatus by Geoffroy. G.
moholi Smith, is the same as the present species and the name must
become a synonym. The type is in the British Museum Collection and
is in a faded condition. My description taken from it reads as
follows. Head and upper parts of body, écru drab; outer side of
limbs cream buff; under parts yellowish white; hands and feet yellow-
ish gray; tail above fawn color on basal half, Prout’s brown on the
remaining portion, growing darker at tip.

Color, Head, neck, rest of upper parts and outer side of limbs
dark bluish gray, washed sometimes on head and back with brown;
(one specimen from Goz Abu Guma on the White Nile, is pale gray
washed with écru drab on the back) ; orbital ring black; stripe between
eyes and on nose white; inner edge of thighs cream buff; entire under
parts whitish; hands gray; feet whitish gray; tail at base écru drab,
remainder blackish, hairs tipped with white; ears black.
Measurements. Total length, 483; tail, 303; foot, 75; ear, 43.
Skull: occipito-nasal length, 45; Hensel, 13; zygomatic width, 32;

This appears to be a well marked, long tailed, blue gray species
found in the valley of the White Nile, southward to the west of the
Victoria Nyanza, and to Mashonaland up to an elevation of 5,000 feet.
Eight specimens are in the British Museum Collection; from Goz Abu
Guma on the White Nile north of Khartoum, Mashonaland at Mazz
5,000 feet elevation, and South Western Ankole, west of the Victoria
Nyanza at an altitude of 5,000 feet. It seems impossible to discover
any differences to separate these specimens. The skins with one excep-
tion closely resemble each other; the exception being the one from
Goz Abu Guma, which is an écru drab above, but others from the same
locality are the usual blue gray, and for lack of any evidence to the
contrary, we must attribute this difference to an individual peculiarity,
or to season, as it was taken in April, the blue ones in November.
More material and more knowledge of the seasonal changes, are neces-
sary before the value of many specific differences, so considered, can
be fully ascertained. The skulls vary considerably in size, but this
difference is probably caused by age or sex. In the Paris Museum is
a specimen, No. 187, which is recorded in the old Catalogue as GALAGo
SENNAARIENSIS Typr. This is probably the specimen called by Lesson
(1. c.) Galago acaciarum var. C. sennaariensis. It is the usual blue
gray animal, the specimen faded somewhat in the lapse of years, the
blue hue only remaining on top of head and upper back between the
shoulders, rest of upper parts and limbs assuming a brownish tint.
The tail is darker than the body and is now a reddish brown hue. The
ears are large and blackish, the under parts and inner side of limbs
whitish, and the skull is in the skin.

short.
Color. General color of head, upper parts of body and outer side
of limbs sooty gray, tinged with buff on hinder part of thighs and legs |
below the knee; under parts and inner side of limbs sooty buff ; hands
and feet sooty; tail sooty brown tinged with reddish. Ex type Berlin

This is a small animal distinguished by its sooty head. That is,
as the type is today, as shown to me in the Berlin Museum; but Peters
in his Reise states, that the under parts are grayish white, (grau
weiss), or yellowish white, (gelblich weiss). Four specimens in the
British Museum from a few miles south of Tete have the under side
so colored. It is probable therefore that the type has become discolored
by dust, and does not correctly represent the species.

This species belongs to the group having the hind legs more or
less cream buff in color. The ears are enormous occupying the entire
sides of the head, and the pale yellowish hue of the outer side of the
limbs is very conspicuous. In general appearance it is very like G.
MOSSAMBICUS, but the characters of the skull are very different. The
species just named is remarkable for its very short rostrum while the
present animal has a long rostrum, with slender nasals, of about equal
width for their entire length, while those of its relative broaden con-
siderably at the tip; the bulle are much longer and narrower and
the molar series much larger.

80 GALAGO
This race is much darker than G. ELEGANTULUS and has none of
the cinnamon color of that species; the mummy brown on the dorsal
line, which is quite indistinct, being the only change from the general
uniform hair brown color of the upper parts of the body. There are
only two examples in the British Museum Collection, the second one
being lighter on back and rump, this apparently on account of the old
hair not having been yet shed, as the head and upper part of the back
are dark like the type.
Bates records (1. c.) that the Ns@ uses neither hollow trees nor
old squirrel’s nests for a hiding place in the daytime. They are found
sleeping in bunches of as many as a half dozen, clinging with their
arms around each other’s bodies and around the branch of a tree. »A
shrill squeaking or chirping often heard at night among the tree tops of
the forest, is referred by the natives to the Nse. They say that this
noise is heard oftener near morning and that then the father is calling
together the rest of the company, to gather them into a huddle for the
daytime.

DU CHAILLU’S GALAGO. Aboli, native name.
Type locality. Equatorial Africa. “Mountains of the interior
near the equator.” No particular locality given. Type in British
Museum.
Genl. Char. Skull of type has only the frontal bone, orbits and
rostrum remaining; but these portions show considerable differences
from the skull of G. ELEGANTULUS with which species this one has
been united by some writers. These differences may be expressed as
follows. The width between the orbits is much greater; the nasals are
narrower, and the rostrum anteriorly much more slender and narrower ;
the frontal from the parietal suture to nasals is shorter; the posterior
end of nasals is rounded instead of pointed; first upper molar is
smaller and the third larger; the bony palate from the center of the
arch is longer, and the width throughout its length much less, causing
the teeth to lie more on a straight line and not to flare outward, as is
the case with the tooth rows of G. ELEGANTULUS; the bony ring of the
orbits is much wider.
Color. Head, neck, and upper parts bright russet; dorsal streak
burnt umber; outer side of arms mummy brown; outer side of legs
GALAGO 81
Prout’s brown; under parts of body, and inner side of limbs yellow-
ish white, the tips of the hairs being that color; hands like arms; feet
like legs; tail at base mars brown, remainder bistre with whitish tips.
Ex type British Museum.
Measurements. About the size of G. ELEGANTULUS. Skull:
length of frontal, 19; width between orbits, 5; length of nasals, 12;
width of rostrum above canines, 10; palatal length, 18; width of palate
between last molars, 14; length of tooth row, 13. Ex type British
Museum.
The type, from which the above description and measurements
were taken, is a very much darker and altogether a differently colored
animal than G. ELEGANTULUS, and can be recognized at a glance. The
differences in color and in the dimensions of the skull above given
would seem to almost entitle this form to a separate specific rank.
Du Chaillu states (1. c.) this species is called Aboli by the natives.
It lives in the forest retiring by day to holes in the trees, coming out at
night in search of food, which consists of fruit and insects. The male
and female generally dwell together. “I kept one for some time and
it throve well, being very fond of cockroaches, bananas and corn.” It
is found in the mountains of the interior near the equator.

DEMIDOFF’S GALAGO. Ojam, native name.
Type locality. Senegal.
Geogr. Distr. Gold Coast to Great Basin of the Congo, West and
Central Africa; Mombuttu, Equatorial Africa, (Thomas) ; Dongila,
Gaboon, (Peters).
Genl. Char. Second upper premolar with two small cusps on heel ;
upper molars with small cusp on oblique ridge; tail longer than head
and body.
Color. Head and upper parts Prout’s brown, darkest on center of
back and rump, but sometimes these parts are cinnamon rufous; buff
streak between eyes and nose; upper lip black; outer side of arms and
legs like back with the outer edge of legs ochraceous buff ; entire under
parts buff, darkest on the breast; tail Prout’s brown, hairs tipped with
golden yellow.
Measurements. Total length, 323; tail, 180; (skin). Skull: occi-
pito-nasal length, 31; Hensel, 25; zygomatic width, 23; intertemporal
width, 15; palatal length, 12; width of braincase, 19; length of upper
molar series, 11; length of mandible, 20; length of lower molar
series, 11.
Peters gave a figure of the head, in his text, and a plate by Wolf
of a Galago in his paper published in 1863 (1. c.) under the name of
GALAGO DEMIDOFFI, but in 1876, (1. c.) decided his example was not
that species, and named it Otolicnus pusillus. The plate exhibits an
animal very like H. pEmiporFl, with some slight differences, but these
may possibly arise from faulty coloring. The only differences stated
by Peters in the later paper to separate his example from H. pem1-
DOFFI are its shorter ears and smaller size. No dimensions are in this
paper, but they are given in the earlier one. Measurements in the
Proceedings of the Zoological Society, (1. c.) are as follows: “total
length, 2” 2”, tail 3” 1”, head 1” 1”, arms 1” 5”, legs 2” 6”, thigh 8,
tibia 10, foot and tarsus 1”.”
84 HEMIGALAGO
There is an error here as the head and tail are made to measure
separately, nearly twice the total length.
I examined the type in the Berlin Museum. It is a baby and
presents no characters to separate it from H. DEMIDOFFI.
Bates (1. c.) states that the “little 6jam is similarly found asleep,
three or four huddled together in old nests of the squirrel dsen. Some
people have told me that the little Lemurs make their own nests, but
it seems more likely that these are only old squirrel’s nests. An djam
that I kept alive once for several days made a chirping noise at night,
as shrill as that of a cricket. In grasping anything with its hind hand,
the clawed finger was always folded in the palm, under and not over
the thing it grasped.”

This is a very small species with a rather bushy tail of a general
rufous color tinged with yellow; the tail however being darker than
the body and without any yellow tinge. This type is in a good state
of preservation, and as yet has probably only slightly faded. There is
no real gray hue on the upper parts, the plumbeous of the base of the
hairs, when showing through on throat and under parts, alone giving
an indication of a gray hue.

This, the fourth member of the genus Hemica.aoo, differs from
all in color and size, being the largest of all. The skull shows many
and great differences from that of H. DEmiporri or H. ANoMuRuSs, and
cannot well be confounded or mistaken for them. The type was taken
on the boundary line of Uganda and the Congo Free State, and a
second and somewhat darker specimen at Dumo, Uganda. Whether
it goes farther into the Congo region or is confined to Uganda is
unknown.

Head round; face furred; eyes large; approximate; ears mem-
branaceous, projecting beyond the fur; hind limbs longer than the
fore limbs; foot elongate; nails flat, except that of second finger which
is pointed; tail longer than body. Skull: mastoid region not inflated ;
inner upper incisor larger than outer ; last molar smaller than the first,
with one internal and one external cusp; inner hind cusp of molars
small, or absent; palate extending beyond last molar.
The Mouse Lemurs are small animals with tails as long or longer
than the body. The head is round, with large eyes situated close to-
gether, and the ears which are thin, stand out beyond the fur.
The legs are longer than the arms, and the foot is very long,
the astralagus, or heel bone, being remarkably elongate. The nails
are flat except that of the second finger which is pointed. In their
habits these animals are nocturnal, and during the dry season some
species become torpid, sleeping all the time. They are only found on
the island of Madagascar. During the summer a large amount of fat
is deposited on portions of the body at the root of the tail, enlarging
this part greatly, and the creature is sustained during the period of
hibernation by absorbing this unique store of food; resembling in this
respect the Bears when they hibernate.

LITERATURE OF THE SPECIES.
E. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, in Annales du Muséum d Histoire
Naturelle, Paris.
In this paper the Author reproduces drawings of three Lemurs
by Commergon, reduced two thirds, upon which he establishes
the genus CHEIROGALEUS (!) and gives to the three figures the
- names according to their respective size of C. mayor, C. MEDIUS,
and C. minor. It is not known what became of Commercon’s
types; they probably were not preserved. They are not now in
the Paris Museum, but there is a specimen there marked C.
MAJor Geoff., TyPE, so he must have selected it to represent the
species he called by that name. C. MEDIUS is now in the genus
ALTILILEMUR, and C. minor is a MiIcrocEBUsS, and is the same
as M. murRINus (Miller).
E. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, Cours de l’Histoire Naturelle des
Mammiferes.
The Author here describes as Cheirogaleus (!) mili, the ani-
mal figured by Commercon to which he had previously given
the name of C. MAJor.
Sir A. Smith, in South African Quarterly Journal.
C. major is here redescribed as C. typicus.

manes.
CHEIROGALE MAJoR is here called Cebugale commersonii.

Museum.
Two species are here included in the genus CHEIROGALEUS (!)
C. smithti = MicrocEBUS MURINUS, and C. typicus = C. MAJOR,
P. Gervais, Histoire Naturelle des Mammiferes.
Three species are here given of CHEIROGALE, only one of which
belongs to the genus, viz., C. milii = C.major, while C. furcifer
and C. murinus both belong to the genus MicroceEsus.

Various species are here included in CHEIROGALE, not all of
which belong to the genus; C. milii = C. major Geoff., C.

Giebel, Die Saugethiere.
Like the Author just preceding, this Writer unites in this work
with CHIROGALE, species of other genera: C. mili and C.
typicus = C. Major; C. furcifer is MICROCEBUS FURCIFER; C.
griseus is a MicroceBus; C. smithii = MIcROCEBUS MURINUS;
and C. olivaceus = MyYoXICEBUS OLIVACEUS.
J. E. Gray, in Proceedings of the Zoological Society of London.
In this review of the LEmuripz the Author includes in the
genus “CHEIROGALEUS (!)’ three species, C. milii, and C.
typicus both of which = CHIROGALE MAjoR Geoffroy, and C.
smithii = MicRocEBUS MURINUS (Miller).
St. G. Mivart, in Proceedings of the Zoological Society of
London.
In this elaborate paper on the crania and dentition of the
LeMuRID# only two species of the genus CHEIROGALE are
given: C. milu = C. major, and C. typicus = C. Major. In
the arrangement of the species, however, C. typicus = C.
MAJOR is erroneously placed in the genus MicrocEBus.
St. G. Mivart, in Proceedings of the Zoological Society of
London.
In this paper the Author endeavors to decide upon the character
separating the genera CHIROGALE and MucroceBus, and
concludes that it will be possible (and perhaps even useful)
still to retain, provisionally at least the distinction between
them, though reposing mainly if not exclusively on a few
cranial and dental characters. Yet in dividing the species he
places FURCIFER and COQUERELI both of which belong to
Microcesus, with C. mili = C. MAjor, as two of the three
species he allots to CHIROGALE.

A, Milne-Edwards, in Revue Scientifique.
In his “L’Ordre des Lemuriens,” this Author places the genera
CHIROGALE, MicroceBus, and GALAGo in the family Galagine,
as a section of Microtarses, and decides that Microcesus and
CHIROGALE, cannot be separated generically.
J. E. Gray, in Proceedings of the Zoological Society of London.
A new generic name, Opolemur is here proposed for Chirogale
milii = C. MAJOR, which was already the type of CHEIROGALEUS
(!) Geoff.
St. G. Mivart, in Proceedings of the Zoological Society of
London.
In this paper the zoological rank of CHIROGALE and its species
is discussed. Following the opinion of Prof. A. Milne-Edwards
which is apparently here adopted, he considers CH1ROGALE and
Microcesus the same generically, and that C. smithii, minor,
MYOXINUS, gliroides, rufus, and pusillus are the same; that
C. milii and typicus are synonymous, and adipicaudatus, and
MAJoR Geoff., are the same as C. milii, and also L. samati
Grandidier, is the same as C. (ALTILILEMUR) MEDIUS Geoff.
Gray’s genera of Murilemur, Phanar, Mirza, and Prolemur
have no claim to distinctness.

BUS MEDIUS (Geoff.) ; C. pusillus = MicRocEBUS MURINUS; and
C. MyYOXINuS, also a Microcesus. C. TRICHOTIS is also
mentioned but no specimen had been seen by the Author.
Forsyth-Major, in Novitates Zoologia.
This paper is a review of the genera CHIROGALE and MIcROcE-
BUS, with critical remarks on the species. Three are recognized
as belonging to CHIROGALE, viz., C. milii = C. major, C.
MELANOTIS, and C. TRICHOTIS. Six are given to MICROCEBUS,

GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES.
Five species are here recognized as belonging to the genus Cu1Ro-
GALE, all natives of the Island of Madagascar. It cannot be said that
the limits of their dispersion are as yet definitely ascertained, especially
of those comparatively lately described, as of these we know little
beyond the locality in which they were discovered. The one most fa-
miliar to Mammalogists, the C. mayor Geoffroy of this work, C. mili
Auct., seems to have a rather extensive range on the Island, and is
found from Pasandava on the north west coast to Tullare in the south,
and on the east coast from Fort Dauphin in the south east, and in
Betsileo Province in the lower wooded region, to Tamatave in the
north east, and also according to Shaw in Central Madagascar. C.
MELANOTIS has been obtained at Vohemar on the north east coast, and
C. SIBREEI was taken at Ankeramadinika one day’s journey east of
Antananarivo the capital, but the extent of the range of neither is
known. C. CROSSLEYI was procured by Grandidier in the forest of
Antsianak, and C. tricHoTis was found by Mr. Crossley between
Tamatave on the north east coast and Morondava on the west coast,
but we have no knowledge of the limits within which the ranges of
these two species are restricted. It is not improbable, however, that
they may have a considerable dispersion in Central Madagascar.

MILIUS’S MOUSE LEMUR.
Type locality. Madagascar. Type in Paris Museum.
Geogr. Distr. Eastern coast of Madagascar; Fort Dauphin to
Tamatave; also in the lower wooded regions of Betsileo Province; and
on the west coast from Tullare to Pasandava, Central Madagascar.
(Shaw).
Genl. Char. Nose rather broad; ears moderate, sparsely haired;
braincase moderately arched; orbits large; palate extending beyond last
molars with rather large posterior perforations ; bullz moderately large ;
first premolar larger than second; upper inner incisors broad, flat
at tips.
The type of C. major Geoffroy is in the Paris Museum and is
identical with his C. milii, and as the first name was published fourteen
years before the latter, it will of course take precedence, and milu, by
which appellation the species has been so long known, must become a
synonym. The type is in very good condition and may be described
as follows: orbital ring blackish brown; whitish spot between eyes; no
facial streaks; face, top and sides of head, and upper part of body to
rump, and the tail pale reddish brown inclining to a buff; flanks and
outer side of limbs, hands and feet, reddish brown or buff paler than
the back; upper lip toward corner of mouth, chin, throat, inner side
of limbs and under part of body white.
Measurements. Total length, 609.6; tail, 278.5; foot, 51.4.
The type of C. milii while faded somewhat, has undergone less
change than most of the types of the earlier species in the Paris Mu-
seum. It is a reddish brown animal with a yellowish white sheen,
produced by the tips of the hairs, and with a long dull brownish tail
darkest at the tip. The species varies so considerably in color among
individuals that the type can only at best give an idea of but one phase
of coloring, with which other examples would only agree in part.
A general description of the species would be somewhat as follows.
Color. Varying considerably among individuals; head and neck
brownish gray, sometimes grizzled with silver gray washed with rufous
of varying intensity, this color sometimes extending over the entire
upper parts; in other examples the upper parts are ashy brown; under
94 CHIROGALE
parts and inner side of limbs yellowish or whitish yellow; orbital ring
black; nose and face between eyes light gray; hands and feet dark
brown; tail pale rufous with white tip, or ashy brown for entire length.
Measurements. Total length, about 580; tail, 275. Skull: occipito-
nasal length, 56; Hensel, 47; intertemporal width, 16; palatal length,
24; zygomatic width, 38; median length of nasals, 18; width of brain-
case, 28; length of upper molar series, 19; length of mandible, 37;
length of lower molar series, 20.
Cheirogaleus (!) typicus Smith, is undoubtedly the same as the
present species. The type is in the British Museum and the following
description is taken from it.
Head and upper parts pale rufous, hairs tipped with gray more
profusely on the rump and sides; orbital ring black; outer side of limbs
and the tail like back ; space between eyes and top of nose without hairs,
these having slipped off ; entire under parts yellowish.
Measurements. Skull: occipito-nasal length, 54; zygomatic width,
34; intertemporal width, 16; median length of nasals, 19; width of
braincase, 26; length of upper tooth row, 18; length of mandible, 34;
length of lower tooth row, 16.
Mr. Shaw, (1. c.) had one of this species in captivity and he relates
that it lived in a small box, but was allowed to exercise in the room at
night. It was nocturnal in its habits, and was brought from the forest
on the lower part of the eastern side of Betsileo province. It ran about
on all fours, but sat up to eat, holding its food in its hands. He
imagined the animal hibernated, for in the winter, (June), after exer-
cising for several nights, on opening the box one evening, it was found
asleep and quite cold. He thought it was dead, but on holding it to
the fire and rubbing it, it gradually awoke, and after having been
thoroughly warmed it was none the worse in health. This happened
several times, and from the fact that the tail became suddenly enlarged,
it probably would, if in its native forest, have slept through the winter.
It made a nest of leaves and dry grass, scooping a place in it just large
enough to contain its body, and carefully covering itself with the loose
material. Mr. Shaw considered it rare in Madagascar, for he was only
able to obtain this individual, although he kept a man two months in the
forest seeking it. Of course its nocturnal habits make its capture more
difficult. His animal was easily tamed, and became very affectionate,
coming when called by name, and enjoyed being handled.

This animal is about the same in size as C. MELANOTIS, and might
pass for a gray phase of that species were it not for the naked ears,
those of C. MELANoTIS being rather closely haired. The skulls show
differences also, the rostral portion of C. sIBREEI being much narrower,
and the nasals more slender. The tooth rows are straighter, not curv-
ing outward as in C. MELANOTIS.

A critical review based on the crania and dentition of the
Lemurip#2. While the results arrived at will be discussed
under the various genera, as they are reached, it is only
necessary here to consider the Author’s conclusion regarding
the species of Microcesus. Five are recognized: M. myoxI-
nus; M. smitm; and M. pusillus; the last two = M.
MURINUS (Miller) ; M. typicus = CHIROGALE MAJorR; and M.
FURCIFER. The Author states, however, that owing to the

on the authority of others.

In this list, MicRocEBUS MURINUS is given as Cheirogaleus (!)
smithti Gray, and placed in the genus LEepILemMuR (!), and
comments are made on MIcRocEBUS MYOXINUS Peters, the
Author, however, never having seen a specimen. In the Appen-
dix several genera are proposed for the species of Microce-
Bus as follows: Murilemur for MIcRocEBUS MURINUS; Phaner
for M. FURCIFER; and Mirza for M. coQUERELI. All these are
quite unnecessary.
J. E. Gray, in Proceedings of the Zoological Society of London.
This paper is practically a repetition of a review of the
LEMURIDZ given in the Catalogue above mentioned, except
that whereas the species of MicroceBus were in the pre-
vious publication placed in various genera, here they are in-
cluded in one LErILEMuR (!) with the addition of L. Mus-
TELINUS Geoff., (which is generically distinct from the species
of Microcezsus), and with the omission of M. Myoxinus
Peters. The genera Phaner and Mirza are suppressed.
Mivart, in Proceedings of the Zoological Society of London.
This is another of the Author’s elaborate papers on the
LEMURIDA, in which he raises the entire group to a suborder of
the Primates, as LEmuRowEA, and gives very cogent and per-
tinent reasons why they should not be considered as an order.
He also considers that MicrocEBus and CHIROGALE are gen-
erically the same, to be known by the latter name, the one first
designated. He cites A. Milne-Edwards’ opinion regarding the
species of the genus CHIROGALE with which he apparently con-
curs; viz., that smithi, minor, MYOXINUS, gliroides, rufus, and
pusillus are all one; that milii, typicus, and adipicaudatus are
the same as MAJoR Geoffroy; that samati is MEDIUS Geoff., and

that COQUERELI is distinct. With this opinion the present writer
agrees, with the exception of myoxinus of which form the
material available is not sufficient to prove that it should not
be separated from the rest as a distinct species or race. As
regards uniting the species of the two genera; the opinion
previously expressed by the Author (Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond.,
1867, p. 965), “that it will be possible and perhaps even useful
to retain, provisionally at least, the distinction between CHEIRO-
GALEUS (!) and Microcesus, though reposing mainly if not
exclusively on a few cranial and dental characters,” may not be
disregarded.
Schlegel, Muséum d’ Histoire Naturelle des Pays-Bas, Simie.
In this work in the arrangement of the species of Primates
MICROCEBUS FURCIFER is placed in the genus Phaner, and M.
COQUERELI in Mirza, although Gray had abandoned both four
years previously. M. major, called mili, and M. mMuRINUS
called pusillus, with M. myoxinus (nec Peters), = M.
MURINUS, are placed in the genus CHEIROGALEUS (!).
The genus MIcroceBus receives no recognition.
Forsyth-Major, in Novitates Zoologice.
This paper is a critical review of the literature and species of
MicrocEBus, OPOLEMUR, and CHIROGALE. Of MicroceEsus, the
first species is given as M. minor Gray, the MuRINUS Miller
being rejected, for the reason that Miller’s plate of L. murinus
= L. bicolor Gmel., which is not proven. The others are M.
MYOXINUS, and M. smithi = M. Murinus Miller.
Kollmann, M. in Bulletin du Muséum National d Histoire
Naturelle, Paris.
A paper on the genera CHIROGALE and Microcesus. ‘The
material upon which the Author bases his conclusions is in the
Paris Museum, important collections in other National Institu-
tions having evidently not been examined. CHEIROGALE is
accepted as a genus and a description of it given, but no species
mentioned. Muicrocesus and Opolemur (ALTILILEMUR of this
work), are considered to be the same, and the following species
named: MuicrocEBuS SAMATI = ALTILILEMUR MEDIUS (E.
Geoff.), M. minor = M. murinus (Miller). The following
forms are regarded as subspecies all in Mrcrocesus. M. minor
minor = M. mMurinus (Miller); M. minor griseorufus nov.
subsp. = M. murinus (Miller), red phase; M. pusillus mMyoxt-
Nus = M. myoxinus Peters; M. pusillus minor smithi = M.

MuRINUS (Miller); and M. minor rufus = M. MuRINUS
(Miller). Evidently Miller’s description of MURINUS was
unknown to the Author, as was also the Bibliography of the
species of MIcRocEBUS, as some are reinstated, e. g. smithi,
rufus, which have been long since relegated to the synoptical
list. The paper is one apt to lead investigators astray, by the
recognition of individual examples not entitled to any distinctive
rank, while MicRocEBUS COQUERELI (Grandidier), the type of
which is in the Paris Museum, is not mentioned at all.
GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES.
The members of this genus are all found in the Island of Mada-
gascar ; some with quite an extensive dispersion, but the range of others
has not yet been entirely ascertained. On the west coast from
Cape St. Vincent to Tullear on St. Augustine Bay, M. myoxinus is
found, and from Cape St. Vincent to Helville on the same coast M.
COQUERELI occurs. M. MURINUS ranges from Betsileo Province to
Fort Dauphin on the south east coast, and northerly from St. Augustine
Bay on the south west coast. Its complete range has not yet been de-
termined. The species with the greatest known range is M. FURCIFER
which goes from Fort Dauphin on the east coast to Mt. Ambre, and
then on the west coast to Cape St. Vincent, thus being found through-
out the northern section of Madagascar.

MILLER’S DWARF LEMUR.
Type locality. Madagascar.
Geogr. Distr. Betsileo Province to Fort Dauphin on the south east
coast of Madagascar, and on the south west coast northerly from St.
Augustine Bay. The exact limits of the species’ dispersion cannot be
said to have yet been definitely ascertained.
Color. Two phases, rufous brown or gray.. The first has the head
rusty brown; orbital ring and upper lip black; stripe between eyes and
on nose, grayish white; upper parts of body rufous brown; dorsal line
indistinct; sides of body and outer side of limbs mouse gray washed
with rufous brown; entire under parts and inner side of limbs white,
base of hairs plumbeous, this hue often showing on the surface; tail
rufous brown like the back, but sometimes much paler ; hands and feet
gray. The other phase is mouse gray above, the back washed with
rufous, a rufous spot over each eye; outer side of limbs mouse gray;
entire under parts white; tail pale rufous.
Measurements. Total length about 300; tail, 150; foot, 26. Skull:
occipito-nasal length, 33; Hensel, 20; zygomatic width, 21; inter-
temporal width, 16; palatal length, 11; median length of nasals, 8;
width of braincase, 17; length of upper molar series, 8; length of
mandible, 19; length of lower molar series, 9.
MICROCEBUS 105
I have examined probably all the specimens of this species, under
the various names given to it, and in its various styles of coloration,
contained in all the great Museums of the world, save that in St.
Petersburg, and I can find no character by which the examples called
murinus, pusillus, smithi, minor, and others given in the above synop-
tical list, can be separated or distinguished the one from the other.
Specimens vary greatly in their coloration even among those belonging
to the two phases gray or rufous brown, and there is also an individual
variation to be seen among the skulls. Various types are extant, such as
smithi Gray, and the specimen that probably served as the type of
minor Gray, both in the British Museum; and of gliroides Grandidier
in the Paris Museum, and all belong to one or the other phase of the
animal called by Miller murinus. It would seem that the confusion in
synonomy, and the perplexity arising as to what name examples of this
little creature should bear, has been caused by recognizing forms as
distinct that really are not, and the difficulty of obtaining a uniformity
of opinion among Mammalogists is emphasized by the fact that the
specimens in different collections exactly similar, bear separate names.
Mr. Shaw, (1. c.) says that this Lemur inhabits a belt of forestland
extending from the eastern forest into the heart of Betsileo Province
a few miles north of Fianarantsoa, where the species is fairly abundant.
It lives in the tops of the highest trees, and makes a nest of dried leaves
closely resembling that of a bird. The food consists of fruits and
insects, and Mr. Shaw frequently saw those he had in captivity catch
the flies that entered their cage for the honey which was placed there.
They were fond of moths and butterflies and ate them greedily. They
were very shy and wild, and he never succeeded in taming one. Even
among themselves they were quarrelsome and fought fiercely, uttering
at the same time a cry like a shrill whistle. The teeth though minute
are sharp, and they grip so firmly with them it is difficult to make them
loosen their hold. They. can leap, but they usually go on all fours, and
they are very nimble among the branches. They have much strength
in the hands and legs, and they would often hang by the feet head
downwards, grasp food in the hands and then draw themselves up-
wards to their former position on their perch. During this movement
the tail served as a balance, but was not used for holding on by, for it
is in no sense prehensile. The eyes were large and brilliant, and the
hands beautifully perfect, with ordinary sized finger nails; the second
toe nail, however, being long and claw-like.

The type of this species is in the Berlin Museum and has evidently
faded considerably, for now the sides of the head, lips, entire under
parts and inner side of arms are white; upper part of back is whitish
brown, and only the dorsal stripe on lower back is reddish brown; tail
ochraceous buff above, yellowish white beneath. It has all the appear-
ance of having been similar in color to the British Museum specimen
above described, but faded by light.
This species is about the size of MicRocEBUS MURINUS and is
not unlike that form in its general appearance. In fact so nearly do
they resemble each other that I have found, when a Mammalogist had
no personal knowledge of M. myoxinus and depended entirely upon
MICROCEBUS 107
descriptions, that the name of this species had been given to examples
of M. murinus. Is is, much more rare in collections than the species
just named, which accounts in a measure for its relative being at times
compelled to represent it, and they are really so much alike that I
could only find one fairly conspicuous external character to separate
them, viz., the color of the nose, that member having its side black in
the present species, but brown in M. murinus. The type is now
practically useless for determining the species, as it does not resemble
at all Peters’ published colored figure, nor agree with his description.
As to the ultimate standing of M. Myoxrnus, whether it will be enabled
to maintain a distinct specific rank, or will eventually be ascertained to
be a race of the longer known form or possibly identical with it, can-
not be satisfactorily decided at the present time. The acquisition of
much additional material to that already existing in collections is
imperatively needed before any definite conclusion is reached. Until
such a time arrives, it will be necessary to leave them as representatives
of distinct species.

This is a moderate sized reddish colored Lemur, without any par-
ticular markings. The skull is highly arched, and with large bulle.
This species was obtained, (Schleg. and Pollen, 1. c.) in the north
western part of the Island Africaine. It lives in the most impenetrable
forests, and makes a nest a foot and a half in diameter, constructed of
straw and dead leaves, in which it sleeps during the day, only leaving
it towards night to seek its food. Only one specimen was procured,
which would seem to show the species was not very abundant, at least
in the locality where this example was discovered.

MICROCEBUS 109
FORK-MARKED DWARF LEMUR. Native name Walouvy. (Schleg. and
Pollen).
Type locality. Madagascar.
Geogr. Distr. Eastern coast of Madagascar from Fort Dauphin
on the south to Mt. Ambre on the north, and down west coast to Cape
St. Vincent, inhabiting all the northern section across the island.
Genl. Char. Black dorsal streak continues to forehead, and there
divides into two branches terminating over each eye. Size large for
this genus. Inner upper incisors larger than outer. Skull: facial
region long; palate extending beyond last molar; inferior margin of
mandible concave, the angle produced backward not downward; upper
incisors in advance of canines, posterior pair the larger ; first upper pre-
molar canine-like; second and third upper premolar with one cusp;
lower incisors long; lower molars subequal.
Color. Upper parts reddish gray, brighter and more reddish on
head and neck; outer side of limbs dark rufous, almost chestnut on the
arms; throat pale rufous; chin and rest of under parts yellowish; a
black stripe from lower part of back to crown of head where it
bifurcates, each branch leaning towards inner side of ear and ending
over the eye; hands and feet dark brown; tail bushy, dark reddish
brown with black tip.
Measurements. Total length about 600; tail, 350. Skull: occipito-
nasal length, 53; Hensel, 42 ; zygomatic width, 33 ; intertemporal width,
20; median length of nasals, 11; length of upper molar series, 14;
length of mandible, 31; length of lower molar series, 12.
This pretty little species, according to Schlegel and Pollen, (1. c.)
is found in numbers in the forests in the western part of Madagascar.
It also dwells in the eastern part whence M. Goudot sent an example
to the Paris Museum. Towards evening it leaves its lodging where it
had slept during the entire day. In choosing this it prefers a hole in a
tree which has two openings. Often such places are the dwellings of
bees, and in that case, the Walouvy, the name the animal bears in the
country, separates the hive of the insects from his own nest by a small
bunch of straw or dried leaves. The natives pretend that it prefers the
society of the bees to rob the honey of which it is very fond. It is
much more nimble and agile than the ordinary Lemur, and its leaps are
wonderful. Its cry, continually uttered during the night, is very
piercing and resembles the syllables ka-ka-ka-ka, similar to the cry of
the guinea fowl.

Tail conical, thickened at base; rostrum exceedingly broad for its
length, with long narrow nasals, rounded on tip; braincase long, wide
posteriorly, with considerable intertemporal constriction; zygomatic
arches wide; orbits large; palate very broad posteriorly ; molars rather
large with three cusps, two outer and one inner; first and second pre-
molar canine-like in both jaws; the first lower premolar much larger
than the others ; the third shortest with one low interior cusp.
The species included here in this genus have been usually placed in
Opolemur Gray, which had for its type and only species CHEIROGALEUS
(!) major E. Geoffroy. There was, indeed, at the time Gray instituted
his genus another described species, C. crossLey1 Grandidier, which
should have been included, but it was evidently unknown to Gray, as
he makes no mention of it, and for him Opolemur (!) was a mono-
typical genus. Unfortunately for the scientific standing of Gray’s
genus, E. Geoffroy had proposed in 1812 for his milii, previously
named MAjoR, the genus CHEIROGALEUS (!) and this fact was per-
fectly well known to Gray, who gives Cheirogaleus (!) milii Geoff.,
as one of the species in his Catalogue of Monkeys, Lemurs, etc., p. 77.
In establishing the genus Opolemur (!), Gray, as was frequently cus-
tomary with him, ignored the writings of previous authors, and here
adopted for his type a species: already the type of another described
genus. This procedure deprives Opolemur (!) of all scientific stand-
ing, and reduces the term to a pure synonym of CHEIROGALEUS (!)
Geoff., and its farther employment as a generic name is prohibited.
This leaves the two species C. samati = A. MEDIUS, and C. THOMASI
without a genus, and I propose therefore for them the generic term
ALTILILEMUR, with A. MEDIus (E. Geoff.), as its type.
Only two species of ALTILILEMUR are known; the type just named,
and tHomas! Major, both heretofore placed in Opolemur (!), although
that term was applied to species possessing different generic characters
from those exhibited by the forms now placed under the newly created
name.
*Altilis. Fatted or Fattening, alluding to the often enlarged base of tail.

A drawing by Commercon was reproduced in this publication
and given the name CHEIROGALEUS (!) MEDIUS. A specimen
in the Paris Museum was identified by Grandidier as Geoffroy’s
species, and its locality given as Bourbon, Madagascar.

ALTILILEMUR THOMAS! is described for the first time as Opole-
mur (!) thomasi.
GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES.
The two known species of ALTILILEMUR are both natives of Mada-
gascar, They are fairly large animals with tails nearly as long as the
head and body. The base of the tail becomes very large by laying on
of fat before the creatures hibernate, and it is on this they subsist
during the period they remain in a dormant condition. Their range on
the Island of Madagascar, so far as known, is very restricted, A.
MEDIUs having been found only at Bourbon on the west coast, and A.
THOMASI at Fort Dauphin on the south east coast. Both species are
rare in collections.

The cheeks and under parts of the type have faded almost to a
white, but the upper parts retain most of their original color. The
ticket on the specimen states that the species is the “Chirogaleus medius
(Geoff.), C. samati (Grand.), Type,” from which I infer it is Gran-
didier’s type and not Geoffroy’s. The example was procured by Gran-
didier at Bourbon, West coast of Madagascar. Mivart states, (1. c.)
that Prof. A. Milne-Edwards informed him that C. samati Grandid.,
was the same as C. mepius E. Geoffroy.
E. Geoffroy’s type of C. mEpIus, if the one above mentioned is not
it, is not in the collection of the Paris Museum.

Smaller in size than the true Lemurs (genus, Lemur); head
conical; ears large, round, hairless; tail shorter than body; fourth
finger and fourth toe longest; nails keeled, that of the great toe large
and flat. Skull: nose long; no upper incisors as a rule; canines large
with a posterior heel, and internal groove; no diastema between canine
and first premolar; the latter tooth has one exterior cusp only; the
next two molars have both an interior and exterior cusp; the last molar
has three cusps; all the molars have a rudimentary hind cusp largest in
last molar ; lower first premolar large, resembling canines, with a proc-
ess on anterior margin; last molar with one exterior cusp; the median
molar with one external and one internal cusp. Palate extending to
middle of last molar. Mastoids much enlarged and swollen. Sagittal
ridge present. Space between orbits, and in front of lacrymal foramen,
depressed. Feet only slightly elongate. No os centrale in wrist.
This genus was instituted by I. Geoffroy (1. c.) for the reception
of his L. MUSTELINUS, at that time the only species belonging to it that
was known. Since then others have been discovered and seven are
now recognized. LrpipoLEMuR has been thoroughly investigated by
St. George Mivart in his excellent paper on the Lemurip# and its
characters plainly given; and he failed to find that its affinities had any
marked relationship with any other genus, although it approximates to
Hapalolemur = Myoxicesus, more nearly than to any other. The
teeth are peculiar and recall those of Inpris. They are arranged in
nearly parallel lines, and there are no incisors in the upper jaw. The
first lower premolars are large, similar to canines in shape with one
external cusp, and the last lower molar has a large fifth cusp. The
116 LEPIDOLEMUR
angle of the mandible is produced downwards as well as backwards.
The navicular bone is long and the foot thereby lengthened.
The species, like all those of the LEmuripa, are nocturnal and
live in trees, and are agile in their movements. But little is known of
their habits, and certain of the species are represented by the unique
types in Museums only. The genus is divided into two groups arranged
according to size e. g. large or small, the first containing three species,
the latter four. When a number of examples have been assembled
together, much variation in color is seen to exist among the older forms,
but whether an equal diversity will be found on the species more
recently described it is impossible to state at present. All the species
thus far discovered are natives of Madagascar.

GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES.
On the eastern coast of Madagascar L. MUSTELINUs is found from
Mt. Ambre in the north to Fort Dauphin in the south; and in the
eastern districts of Betsileo Province, Central Madagascar, L. MIcRo-
DON is met with. At Fort Dauphin in the southeastern part of the
island, L. LEUcopus was obtained. Passing to the opposite side of
Madagascar at Betseko on the northwestern part L. EDWARDSI was pro-
cured ; and somewhere in this part, locality not given by its discoverer,
L. GRANDIDIERI comes ; in the southwestern part from Marinda to Masi-
kora, L. RUFICAUDATA ranges, and in the same section at Ambulicata,
L. cLopiceps is found. It will be seen that several of the species are
LEPIDOLEMUR 117
limited to one locality, and this is on account of the limited number of
examples procured, as all the species obtained by Forsyth-Major save
one, L. MICRODON, were represented by only one specimen. The dis-
tribution of these, therefore, is still to be ascertained.

WEASEL LEMUR. Native name “Fitiliki.”’
Type locality. Madagascar. Type in Paris Museum.
Geogr. Distr. Entire length of east coast of Madagascar from
Fort Dauphin to Mt. Ambre.
Genl. Char. Fur woolly; ears rounded, haired only at base ex-
ternally; hairs of tail short; dorsal stripe on type very indistinct.
Skull large, heavy; braincase small, rounded; facial region long;
orbits very large; os planum distinct; molars large; anterior upper pre-
molar not like a canine; last lower molar with large fifth cusp; anterior
portion of each molar produced forwards, overlapping posterior portion
120 LEPIDOLEMUR
of teeth in front; posterior margin of palate level with anterior edge
of last upper molar; premolars with one external cusp; fourth digit
longest ; tail more than half the total length.
Color. Top of head dark brown, hairs tipped with grayish white;
lower sides of neck above shoulders dark rufous; entire upper part
reddish, becoming paler on rump, but brighter on flanks; dorsal stripe
from neck to middle of back very indistinct on lower back; outer side
of arms like back; legs paler and duller; chin and throat white; under
parts buffy; inner side of limbs mouse gray; tail at base like back,
middle portion sooty, apical portion reddish brown. Ex type in Paris
Museum.
The L. porsaLis Gray, is the same as L. MusTELINUS. The type is
in the collection of the British Museum, and may be described as
follows. Top and back of head grizzled grayish brown with an indis-
tinct dark brown stripe in the middle of the crown; upper part of body
reddish brown; on the lower back the tips of the hairs have all been
worn away leaving only the blue under fur visible; shoulders and outer
side of limbs like the back; under part of body and inner side of limbs
grayish fulvous, the plumbeous under fur showing through in many
places; hands reddish brown, feet paler brown; tail above bluish gray
on basal half, (tips of hairs worn away), pale rufous on apical half,
beneath pale rufous. This type specimen is slightly smaller than
Geoffroy’s type, and its tail a little longer, but the color of the
upper parts and texture of the fur is very like L. musteLtinus. The
skull of the type of L. dorsalis had been mislaid and I did not see it.
Another specimen in the British Museum attributed to L. dorsalis
has lost nearly all the reddish tips of the hairs, and is nearly a plum-
beous color, but gray on head and between the shoulders, while a brown
stripe extends from the forehead to the middle of the back. Gray
states there is no dorsal stripe, and his type has none, but in these ani-
mals the absence or presence of a dorsal stripe may be regarded more
as an individual than an important specific character, as its depth and
distinctness varies greatly among examples. The tail is somewhat
darker. I am unable to discover any character by which these speci-
mens can be separated from L. musteLtinus. The skull of this last
individual measures as follows: occipito-nasal length, 49; Hensel, 40;
zygomatic width, 35; intertemporal width, 18; palatal length, 17; width
of braincase, 30; median length of nasals, (broken) ; length of upper
molar series, 20; mandible wanting. A specimen in the Paris Museum
is very red on back, and tail red on basal half, rest dark brown.
LEPIDOLEMUR 121
Another example is pale reddish brown on upper parts, the tail buff
washed with reddish. There is great variation among individuals.
Little is known of the habits of this species, but according to Schlegel
and Pollen (1. c.) it resembles in these respects those of M. FURCIFER,
and these two species are often seen together. It is very stupid and
lazy, more so than M. crRIsEus, and the natives say they often kill it in
the day time with sticks. It will eat flesh.

SMALL-TOOTHED SPORTIVE LEMUR.
Type locality. Eastern district of Betsileo Province, Central
Madagascar. Type in British Museum.
Geogr. Distr. Eastern district of Betsileo Province, Central
Madagascar.
Genl. Char. Similar outwardly to L. MUSTELINUS, but molars
very small; premolars of usual size; palate longer than that of the
species compared.
Color. Male. Head, back, shoulders, outer side of arms, and front
of thighs, chestnut; lower part of back at rump paler; blackish brown
stripe from crown to middle of back; outer side of legs rufous; in
one specimen this part is like the back; in most examples there is a
narrow ochraceous stripe from the cheeks to back of neck, but this
is only partly shown in the type; throat and fore neck dark gray ; chest
chestnut ; under parts of body and inner side of limbs yellowish gray.
The type has lost the tip of the tail, the portion remaining is russet ;
but the entire tail taken from other specimens has the basal half
chestnut and the remaining portion blackish brown. The type is not in
as richly colored pelage as are specimens procured by Dr. Forsyth-
Major. It was obtained by W. D. Cowan in the Ankapana Forest,
Eastern Betsileo, Madagascar.
Measurements. Size about equal to L. Mustetinus. Skull: occip-
ito-nasal length, 58; Hensel, 49; zygomatic width, 38; intertemporal
breadth, 21; palatal length, 22; median length of nasals, 19; width of
braincase, 29; length of upper molar series, 21 ; length of mandible, 40;

Genl. Char. Smaller than L. MuSTELINUS; nasal region short;
ears ovate, haired; tail long; orbits small. Skull massive, broad for
its length, muzzle short.
Color. Head dark grayish brown; upper parts of body pale red-
dish gray; shoulders and outer side of arms reddish brown; outer
side of hind limbs, pale gray washed with brown on outer edge of
thigh above the knee; chin and breast gray; rest of under parts, and
inner side of limbs whitish or yellowish white; hands reddish brown,
feet paler brown, toes whitish; tail reddish brown darker than the
rump ; apical part of ears naked, black, remainder hairy like head ; dor-
sal line indistinctly reddish.
Measurements. Total length about 560; tail, 280. Skull: occip-
ito-nasal length, 55; Hensel, 42; zygomatic width, 38; intertemporal
width, 19; median length of nasals, 14; length of upper molar series,
21; length of mandible, 41 ; length of lower molar series, 21.
There are several mounted specimens of this form in the Paris
Museum, all of which, according to the regrettable custom prevailing
in that Institution are marked as “types.” Some are greatly faded and
show but little of the original coloring, and which one is the real type
it is impossible to say. The one described was procured by Grandidier
at Morondava, Madagascar, in 1869, and is of course not the true
type, but a co-type. The probably real type taken at the same place in
1867 is so faded that but a faint idea of its original coloring can be
obtained. The chief difference between this form and L. MUSTELINUS
is in the shape and proportion of the skull. Three or four skins, how-
ever, in the collection in the drawers, still retain the original coloring.
Lepilemur (!) pallidicauda Gray, is the same as L. RUFICAUDATUS.
Why Gray should have described it as distinct is difficult to imagine for
he states, (1. c.) that, “this animal was sent to us by Mr. Frank of Am-
sterdam as LEPILEMUR (!) RUFICAUDATUS Grandidier,’ and then he
LEPIDOLEMUR 123
gives Grandidier’s short description. Surely there was no reason to
confer upon the hapless animal a new name. Gray’s description of
the male is short and he gives none of the female, merely making a
slight reference to the color of the tail. The following description is
taken from this female. Head gray, hairs tipped with black; back
grayish washed with brown; a reddish brown (not very distinct), stripe
on middle of back; rump buff or pale fawn; shoulders and arms red-
dish brown; outer side of legs pale gray; entire under parts and inner
side of limbs yellowish white; hands rufous, feet gray; tail above dark
brown, beneath basal half yellowish white, remainder pale cinnamon.
Measurements of the male’s skull are as follows. Occipito-nasal
length, 56; Hensel, 45; zygomatic width, 37; intertemporal width, 17;
palatal length, 21; width of braincase, 27; median length of nasals,
14; length of upper molar series, 21; length of mandible, 41; length of
lower molar series, 23.
It will be seen that there is very little difference in the measure-
ments between this skull and that of the male given above.

GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES.
On the eastern coast of Madagascar from the Bay of Antongil to
and including Betsileo Province, M. stmus has its range; while in the
same Province is found M. crisEus which also appears in the north
west part of the island to Ifassy. The known locality for M. oLiva-
CEUS, so far as I have been able to discover is Ampazenanbe, where an
example was procured by M. Lentz, and which is now in the Paris
Museum.

of Bokomboula, and it inhabits the forests of bamboo. They found it
several journeys from the coast on the banks of the river Ambassuana.
This animal remains during the day asleep among the shoots of the
highest bamboos, the back curved, the head placed between the thighs,
and the tail covering the back. It is strictly nocturnal in its habits, and
does not perceive its enemies nor know of the hunter’s approach. It
feeds on the bamboo leaves, which were always found filling the
stomach. It is very lazy during the day, but at night exhibits an
activity and agility that is incredible. It utters a feeble grunt similar
to that of a pig, but much less pronounced. The young are born in De-
cember or January. A young one kept in captivity lived on bananas
and cooked rice, but it only ate the latter when forced by hunger. It
had the bad habit of gnawing its tail as monkeys often do in captivity.
On pointing a finger at it, it flew into a rage, showed its teeth and
uttered sharp grunts.

This animal seems separable from H. criseus. It is much darker
and of quite a different color on both the upper and under parts of the
body. The type is in good preservation and has a young one by its side,
showing the same coloration. It is not stated in what part of Mada-
gascar it was procured, but a skin in the study collection obtained by
M. Lentz is labelled as having been taken at Ampazenambe.

This species has been confounded with M. crisEus (E. Geoff.), by
various writers, and Gray himself thought it might be M. oLIvAcEUs
(I. Geoff.), though he maintained it was not the same as M. GRISEUs.
It is a much larger animal than that species, and the skulls if com-
MYOXICEBUS 129
pared would show at once by their great dissimilarity of size, and shape
of the muzzle, (one broad and one truncate, the other narrow and
pointed), that they represent very distinct species.
There are two specimens in the Paris Museum, marked male and
female and named M. stmus, collected by M. Lentz in the valley of
Ambookobe, Madagascar, but which in color, do not resemble Gray’s
type of the species. Both examples have the very broad nose and
muzzle of M. stmus. The following description was taken from the
male specimen. Nose between eyes and on sides black; top of head,
neck, and between shoulders, reddish chestnut, the hairs tipped with
ochraceous ; rest of back, sides of body, outer side of limbs and under
parts yellowish gray, tinged with reddish on arms; throat and under
side of arms below elbows rusty; hands reddish; feet yellowish gray;
tail at base pale red, remainder brownish gray, blackish at tip; muzzle
white; ears grayish on long hairs.
It will be seen that this specimen differs greatly in color from the
description of the type of M. crisEus given above, and while both
examples have characters that would seem to indicate they belonged to
Gray’s species, the various differences they exhibit in coloration would
show that the form was subject to great diversity in its hues.
. Mr. Shaw gives an account of one of these broad nosed Lemurs
which he had in captivity (1. c.). It was caught in the higher level
forest among the bamboos on the eastern side of Betsileo Province.
The outwardly inclined teeth in the lower jaw were used as scrapers
and not for biting. Besides these nearly all the teeth were serrated
and arranged in opposition so as to intersect, and it could bite off easily
the young shoots of the bamboo, and mince up a handful of grass
blades and stalks, each bite cutting like a pair of scissors. It feeds
nearly throughout the entire day, like most grass-eating animals, and
for several months this Lemur was kept chained on the lawn, and it
rarely ceased from eating the grass from morning until evening. It
disliked fruit and could not be induced to touch it although tempted
with various kinds growing in the forest, but was very fond of cooked
meat and sugar cane; and through its desire for sugar it was induced to
eat cooked rice, which eventually became its chief food. The broad pad
on the great toes enabled it to grasp even the smoothest surface firmly.
The male’s head was round in shape, the female had a more pointed
nose. The cry it uttered was at times like that of a duck, but on other
occasions was loud and piercing.

jaw; all upper molars with an internal cingulum; upper premolars
have one exterior cusp, with a supplementary one on the first, and the
second premolar has a large interior cusp; the molars except the pos-
terior, have seven cusps, two interior, two exterior, a small supple-

anterior cusps; the posterior molar has only a front interior cusp. In
the lower tooth row there is a diastema between the canines and the
first premolars; these last are higher than the others and have a
cutting edge; the lower molars except the last, have five cusps, two
cuter, two inner and an intermediate one, which is wanting on the last
molar, leaving that tooth with but four. Angle of mandible not pro-
duced downward.
This genus contains the typical Lemurs, with an elongate face and
a somewhat fox-shaped head; the cheeks are usually surrounded by a
ruff of lengthened hairs, often passing beneath the chin. The ears are
large with tufts on upper parts. Eyes large and round; the arms are
not quite so long as the legs; and the tail is usually long, and some-
times inclined to be bushy. Fleshy pads are placed on palms of hands
and muscles of the feet, as well as on under side of fingers, which

enable the animals to grasp the branch of a tree with great tenacity. In
size they are about equal to the house cat, and their fur is thick, some-
times woolly in texture. Not very much is known of their habits in
the wild state, but they are not so strictly nocturnal as the species of the
other genera of the family, and are seen during the day as well as at
night seeking food. They are only found in the Island of Madagascar
and the adjacent Comorin Islands. They go in troupes, sometimes of
many individuals, are very noisy and live in the forest, one species only,
L. caTTA, frequenting rocky places destitute of trees. They are very
agile and their movements are made with great rapidity. Their usual
note is a kind of low grunt, but they often utter loud cries. Fruits of
various kinds, and insects, bird’s eggs and birds themselves, when they
can catch them, furnish their principal means of subsistence. During
the heat of the day they sleep, the head placed beneath the arms and the
tail coiled about the neck. They walk on the hands and feet, both when
on the ground or amid the trees, the tail usually carried high up. Great
confusion has existed in the many published articles on the species,’
mainly from a lack of sufficient material by which a correct judgment
could be obtained. Much variability occurs in the coloration, individuals
of the same species differing greatly in this respect, and in not a few
instances the female has been described as a species distinct from the
male. In some cases there is wonderful difference in color between the
sexes, and in such cases it is not to be wondered at that the female
should have been considered as representing a species, the male of
which had not at that time been obtained. To rectify the synonymy
given by different writers is no easy task, as they have not always been
in accord as to the name of different species, and much confusion has
been created by bestowing various names upon the same species. De-
scriptions of these animals by the earlier writers were often so meagre
and insufficient that it was difficult, if not impossible, to ascertain what
one was intended, and the task was made no easier by the disappear-
ance of the type from the collection of the Institution in which it was
originally deposited. But after an examination of all the types now
existing, and a careful study of the collections of these animals in the
Museums of the World, the conclusions given in the articles on the
various species, deemed worthy of recognition, have been reached.
LITERATURE OF THE SPECIES.

to the genus, viz., L. catra. The others are tardigradus, of the
genus Loris, and volans included in GALEOPITHECUS.
Brisson, Regnum Animale.
Four species of Lemur are here given, under the genus Pro-
simia: viz., P. fusca, P. pedibus albus, P. pedibus fulvis, and P.
cauda annulis cimcta. The first three cannot be determined
with any degree of certainty, the fourth, however, is without
doubt Lemur catra Linnzus and must be regarded as the type
of Brisson’s genus.
Linneus, Systema Nature.
Beside the species in the former edition of this work, given
above, two more are added, L. Moneos, and L. mMacaco.
Schreber, die Séugthiere in Abbildungen nach der Natur mit

Various species are given in this work under Lemur, not all of
which belong to that genus. L. tardigradus = Loris TARDI-
GRADUS; L. mongos (nec Linn.), = L. Futvus E. Geoff.,
and is mixed in synonymy and plates. L. Futvus and L. RuFI-
FRONS are confused together and the synonymy given belongs
partly to each, while plate XXXB represents L. FuLvus, and
XXXIXA has a figure of L. RuFIFRoNs. L. Macaco Linn., is
also confused with L. variecatus (Kerr), and plate XLA
represents the former, and XLB the latter, while the synonymy
belongs partly to each. L. catra is correctly given. The “Yellow
Maucauco” of Pennant is included without any Latin designa-
tion in the text; but is called on plate XLII, Lemur simia-
sciurus. Lemur volans = GALEOPITHECUS VOLANS.
A plate of L. atsirrons, No. XXXIXD is given.

then understood, and with definitions of genera and subgenera.
Of the genus Lemur a careful specialized description is given of
the skull and teeth, and comparisons made with other genera of
the Family. The synonymy and description of the genus are given,
but a list of the species is omitted. Lemur is placed in the sub-
family LEmurin#, followed by Myoxicesus (Hapalolemur),
MicroceBus, CHEIROGALEUS (!), and LepitemurR (!). The
conclusion of his investigation may be summed up in his own

words: “I have been quite unable to detect any cranial or dental
characters which would justify a subdivision of the genus
Lemur.” He divides the LEMuRIDz into four subfamilies with
fifteen genera, an arrangement that has not been adopted,
as the species of several of the genera, such as DAUBENTONIA,
Tarsius, and NycrTicEeBus etc., are considered as possessing
characters sufficiently distinctive to make their species repre-
sentative of independent Families.
St. George Mivart, in Proceedings of the Zoological Society of
London.
This is a supplementary paper to the one mentioned above, in
which the genera CHEIROGALE and MicrocesBus are compared
and the differences found to be few, but “it will be possible
(and perhaps even useful) still to retain, provisionally at least,
the distinction between CHEIROGALEUS (!) and MIcROCcEBUS,
though reposing mainly, if not exclusively on a few cranial and
dental characters.” LEPIDOLEMUR is also discussed and is con-
sidered not to have any marked relationship to any other genus.
The tarsal structure of these three genera and that of GALaco is
compared.

This volume is a most valuable and authoritative review of
the Primates, the Author’s conclusions being founded upon the
great collection of these animals in the Leyden Museum, which
was doubtfully equalled by that of any other Institution at
that time. The opinions expressed therefore are entitled to the
greatest respect, and when it may be necessary to disagree with
the Author, it will be found generally that new material,
obtained since his work was published, has shed a clearer light
upon doubtful points, that could not be decided satisfactorily
when he was writing his review.
Of the genus Lemur he recognizes comparatively few species,
and divides them into two Sections with subdivisions added.
These Sections are I, with the tail having more or less a uniform
coloration such as grayish, brownish or rufous, the apical half
being often brown or blackish, and II, with the tail ringed with
black and white. The first is again divided into A, with those
species having the nose black, and B, with those having the
nose covered with white hairs. A has four subdivisions, a
containing animals of large size with tails nearly as long as the
body, chin and upper part of throat naked, fur thick and woolly,
varied chiefly with black and white and reddish brown, and ears
hidden by the long hairs on each of their sides, color very
variable but not dependent on age of animal. This division has
L. variEGATuS Kerr. 8. Pelage of male black, that of female,
more or less bright red. In this is included L. macaco Linn. 7.
Front and crown more or less black with a large whitish spot on
each side of the brow; ears naked at edge, remainder covered
with short hairs. Color gray tinged sometimes with brown, or
fawn or red; the four hands of the same hue as the dominant
color, or verging to red. Above reddish or grayish white. Tail

or less deep in hue. Apical half of tail ordinarily black.
Individual modifications of these hues often occur, and local

tion is called to its distinctness from those species.

same publication, the brains of LEMur Macaco and LEMUR
CORONATUs are described and a comparison made with the brain

An important contribution dealing with the os planum and
lachrymal in Lemurs and Monkeys. The conclusion is, that
in those LEMuRIDZ which have a large lachrymal the os
planum is reduced and vice versa. The following points in
existing species are insisted upon when there is a “great
facial expansion of the lachrymal and particularly its exten-
sion beyond the fossa lachrymalis.”
1. “It is scarcely more frequent in Lemurs than in the
LEMUR 139
higher groups; the greatest reduction of the lachrymal occurs
precisely within the Prosimiz.
2. It is at its minimum in young individuals.
3. The genera of each group in which this character is
presented have certainly no closer relationship with those of
another group.
4. It can always be traced back to an elongation of the
facial cranium, necessitated by a more powerful dentition.
This extension of the lachrymal, is, in the Lemurs as well as
in the Monkeys, not a primitive condition, but an extreme’
specialization.
GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES AND SUBSPECIES.
The species of the genus Lemur are found on the Island of
Madagascar and some of the small neighboring islands; Madagas-
car, as would naturally be inferred on account of its large size,
containing most all of the species, if not indeed all of them, and
this island may be regarded as the original home of the genus. On
the northern portion of Madagascar from the east to the west coast,
. from the mouth of the river Antamba and the environs of the Bay of
Mazamba to Bombetok (Schlegel), and also on the north eastern coast,
(Schlegel, limits not defined), L. rutvus is found. On the same coast
from Vohemar to the Bay de Diego is the range of L. coronatus, and
from Adampone to Cape Masoala L. vARIEGATUS is met with. Still on
the north east coast from the Bay of Antongil to Masindrano we have
L, atBirrons and L. v. ruber; and from Teneriffe to Fort Dauphin in
the south L. RUBRIVENTER is found. In the rocky lands of the south and
south west portion of Betsileo Province, and also in the Province of
Anossi, is the home of L. catTa; and in southern Madagascar from the
River Tsidsibon to the River Mangonka, L. ruFus has its range. On
the north west coast from Baly to Marinda, and also on the neighboring
islands of Anjuan (Johanna), Comoro, Nossi-bé, and Mohilla, L.
MONGOs is found; and from Cape Ambre to Ifassy L. NIGERRIMUS
ranges; while from Ifassy to Manaharana are the limits of L.
macaco. From Baly to Cape St. Vincent L. RUFIFRONS occurs; and
from some portion of Madagascar as given by E. Geoffroy, locality
not stated, and also from the Island of Mayotte, L. NicRIFRONS is
found. For L. crnereicers Milne-Edwards and Grandidier, no lo-
cality has been given, those authors having simply published a figure
of the species without any description.
140 LEMUR
The ranges of the recognized forms of Lemur here given may
probably be more extensive than is known at present, at least for some
of them, but further exploration of Madagascar, especially in the
interior will be necessary to decide positively any doubts now held upon
this point. The limits given have been ascertained from specimens in
different Museums having particular localities attached to them, and
also from various maps placed in the collection of Lemurs in the Paris
Museum, prepared, presumably, under the direction and supervision of
Grandidier and A. Milne-Edwards. It is greatly to be regretted that
the text for the Lemurs in the Histoire Naturelle de Madagascar of the
authors above named, was never published, for it would have undoubt-
edly have thrown much light upon the variation, distribution and habits
of these singular animals. The plates do indeed give in a restricted
manner, some idea of how Lemurs vary, but it would require more than
one volume of illustrations to exhibit the often extraordinary differ-
énces shown by these animals in the hues of their coats, both between
individuals, and also at times between the sexes of the same species.
This could only be properly demonstrated in the text of a volume de-
voted solely to this group. In a work like the present, lack of space
only permits that the attention be called to this fact and the inclusion,
in the articles on the species, of the descriptions of a few striking
instances, which of necessity only give an inadequate idea of the condi-
tions existing.

Measurements. Total length, 876; tail, 420; foot, 79. Skull:

median length of nasals, 20; width of braincase, 35; palatal length,
32-39; length of upper molar series, 25-28; length of mandible, 59;
length of lower molar series, 32..
The type of L. flavifrons is in the British Museum, and the follow-
‘ing is a description of it. Pale yellowish band across forehead; nose
bright rufous ; top of head, body above, and beneath ears rufous, dorsal
line darkest; rump paler, more reddish; shoulders yellowish; outer
side of limbs rufous like head; hands and feet dark rufous; chin and
throat whitish; inner side of limbs, neck and body beneath yellowish,
tail rufous.
A second specimen also a female, is very much darker in color,
being bright chestnut on head and body, dorsal region and hands
blackish chestnut, feet and tail rufous. While having a general
resemblance to each other, these two examples differ greatly in depth
and shade of color.
Schlegel in his monograph of the Lemurs was the first to call atten-
tion to the fact that it was not the animal that was most common in
collections, and of a rather large size which should bear the name of
MONGOZ given by Linnzus, but a smaller form distinguished in the
male by rufous patches beneath the ears, extending sometimes on to the
throat, and with a whitish face and nose. Later Forsyth-Major in the
Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1901, p. 249, published a paper in which he
showed very conclusively that the wrong animal had been accorded the
Linnean name of MoNncoz, and agreed with Schlegel that the smaller
rufous-cheeked animal should rightfully bear the appellation. The
female is very similar to the male in general appearance, but lacks the
rufous coloring ; and the patches on the side of head and throat, called
whiskers by Schlegel, are white, and she is rather lighter on the under
side of the body. Besides Madagascar, this species is a native of the
islands of Anjuan, (Johanna), Mohilla, and Nossi-bé.
According to Schlegel and Pollen, (1. c.) “this species inhabits the
forests which extend from the bay of Diego-Juarez to the bay of Bam- .
betoc, also the forest of Loncoubé in the island of Nossi-bé.’”’ The
animals go in troupes and keep to the highest trees. Ordinarily they can
be seen towards evening, and then their voices are head in loud cries,
for at that time they are exceedingly noisy. Sometimes when danger
approaches these cries’ are changed to growling. Their agility in leap-
144 LEMUR
ing from tree to tree is wonderful and can hardly be followed with the
eyes, and it is easier to kill a bird on the wing than one of these animals
when leaping. They have the habit when pursued of dropping suddenly
from a lofty tree into the bushes, and the hunter thinking the indi-
vidual to be dead, is soon undeceived by seeing it quickly seeking
another tree a considerable distance away, and this makes following
them difficult. When raised in captivity from a very youthful age, .
it is gentle and friendly. It will eat all kinds of fruits, and is especially
fond of bananas, upon which it chiefly subsists in the wild state. It is
also fond of bird’s brains, which, after breaking the skull with its teeth,
are sucked into the mouth, but it does not eat the bird. The inhabit-
ants of Nossi-falie will not permit this animal to be introduced there,
as they contend that its presence would be a profanation of their so-
called sacred island. |

Color. Face black; top of head, forehead and patch at top of

brown washed with yellowish; outer side of limbs paler ; cheeks yellow-
ish or buffy; entire under parts buff; hands and feet reddish; tail

reddish on dorsal line; under parts of body, and inner side of limbs
yellowish brown; rufous spot at vent; hands dark brown; feet rufous:
black spot at base of tail above; basal part of tail rufous grading into
black for three fourths the length, the hairs tipped with rufous.
Measurements. Total length, 906; tail, 500; foot, 97; ear, 36,
(Collector’s measurements). Skull: occipito-nasal length, 82; Hensel,

The supposed type of L. N1GRIFRONS in the Paris Museum, has the
black spot at the root of the tail above, characteristic of the island form
named by Schlegel mayottensis. This spot is generally very conspic-
uous and causes the specimens from Mayotte to be readily recognized.
Another peculiarity is the absence of spots over the eyes, which is
observable in another “type” in the Paris Museum, although the one
described has these marks; the muzzle is also broad and inflated, quite
different in shape from the rather pointed muzzle of L. rutvus; and
the third upper premolar and the first and second upper molars are
larger. There is much individual variation in color, as in the other
species, and some are all yellowish gray with all the top of the head
black, and no rufous showing. It would seem that the characters men-
tioned are sufficient to give this form a distinct rank, and that it was
an error to regard it as a synonym of L. Futvus. Between the Paris
Museum examples and those from Mayotte Island there are no grounds
for separation, and it may be, Geoffroy’s specimens came originally
from Mayotte Island, as it is not likely, at the time he wrote, that
a discrimination of the islands would be made, but all material from
that quarter would be labelled Madagascar.
Messrs. Schlegel and Pollen state that they discovered this species

during their visit to the island of Mayotte, situated in the western part
of the bay of Gongonie. It goes in bands of from six to twenty
individuals in the primeval forests of the island. They are seen both
by day as well as at night, keeping mostly to the trees, but descending
occasionally to the ground to look for fallen fruit. At the setting of
the sun they utter their plaintive cries in unison. When pursued by
dogs they seek the highest trees, intently watching their enemy and
growling. It is only when they see the hunter that the entire band
takes flight, seeking the depth of the forest where it is exceedingly
difficult to follow and shoot them. When wounded it defends itself
against the dogs with great fury, and it has been seen td leap upon the
back of one and bite its ears and neck. At Mayotte in hunting this
Lemur, a cur dog is used, which on perceiving one of the animals keeps
up a continual barking, jumping at the same time against the tree on
which the Lemur is. The latter pays more attention to the dog than
to the hunter, and is easily approached and shot. This species is fond
of wild dates, and makes long journeys in search of them. The flesh of
this Lemur is excellent, and tastes like that of the Hare.

Lemur mongos collaris 67. 10. 5. 20. There is a specimen in the
British Museum purchased from the Zoological Society of London and
named Lemur mongos collaris which is peculiar and should be noticed.
Type locality. Madagascar.
Color. Nose gray in the middle, black at top and at tip; a partial
orbital ring and forehead black, a rather indistinct line across top of
head, space beneath ears on neck, cheeks and sides of throat rufous; a
yellowish band from back of shoulders across back at base of neck;

This example obtained from the Zoological Society is apparently
without any history beyond the fact of its purchase. It does not agree
exactly with any known species. Its nose is neither black nor white,
LEMUR 149
and in the rufous coloring of the cheeks, sides of the neck and throat
it resembles L. moncos Linn., but its black hands and feet separate it —
from that species, as do also its dusky under parts. This is not
Gray’s Prosimia collaris which = L. Moncos Linn., nor does it seem to
agree with any described species; and the thought arises, can it be a
hybrid born in the Zoological Gardens, as it seems to have resemblance
to more than one species, its nose neither black nor white keeping it
out of both groups as arranged in the key of the species.
There are great variations in color and in head markings among
individuals of this species, and this fact has been the cause of the
multiplication of names, and confusion in the synonymy. It is
the common Lemur called L. moncos generally by authors and
attributed to Linneus. It is however a larger animal than the
true L. moncos Linn., and has a black face and nose which the
other species never has. Attention has been called to the error, so
universally committed by authors, by both Schlegel and Major as
mentioned in the article on L. moncos Linn. The names ruLvus and
collaris were bestowed upon this species by E. Geoffroy St. Hilaire
(1. c.) and both published on the same page, but as FULVUS comes first,
it must replace the somewhat better known collaris. The types of both
L. ruLvus and L. collaris have disappeared from the collection in the
Paris Museum, but there is an example marked L. collaris E. Geoff.,
and which was figured in the Histoire Naturelle de Madagascar by
Milne-Edwards and Grandidier. This animal died in the menagerie
of M. Polito, and was given by him to the Museum in 1828. While
therefore, it cannot be any specimen examined by Geoffroy when he
named the species, it is probable that it represents fairly enough
Geoffroy’s form so far as can be determined by his meagre description.
This Paris Museum specimen may be described as follows: top of head
and back of neck blackish maroon; entire upper parts and outer side of
limbs reddish brown; dorsal line from neck broadening on rump, dark
reddish brown; a reddish brown spot over each eye; cheeks and large
patch between ears extending to throat bright rufous; throat, under
part of body and inner side of limbs pale yellow, (probably faded) ;
hands and feet rufous; wrists and ankles bright rufous; tail chestnut.
When considering examples of a species so varying in color as the
present, it is not to be wondered that writers with insufficient material
at their command should have been induced to describe some of their
specimens as distinct species, but it is not always easy, when such
examples are no longer accessible for examination, to accurately define
what species they really belong to. And this has been one of the diffi-
150 LEMUR
culties in the synonymy of the present species. The descriptions are
often meagre and insufficient, and the types no longer existing there was
little left to assist a correct decision to be reached. Some types remain
such as L. xanthomystax Gray, and L. melanocephalus Gray, both of
which are undoubtedly the same as L. Futvus. These are both in the
British Museum and may be described as follows:
L. xanthomystax Gray, (1. c.). Head and back of neck black;
black line between eyes; nose black; dark buff spot tinged with rufous
over each eye; large bright rufous spot on each side of throat; fur of
body and limbs rufous gray, hairs black tipped ; dorsal line dark reddish
brown; under part of body pale rufous; hands and feet rufous; basal
portion of tail dark brown, remainder blackish. Ex type in British
Museum.
Measurements. Skull: occipito-nasal length, 90; Hensel, 77 ; inter-
temporal width, 31; zygomatic width, 54; median length of nasals, 22;
length of upper molar series, 30; length of mandible, 62; length of
lower molar series, 27.
L. melanocephalus Gray, (1. c.). Top of head with a narrow line
extending over the ears to the occiput ; forehead, face and nose black;
upper part of body grizzled chestnut and black; outside of arms iron
gray; outer side of legs brownish gray, chin and throat pale yellowish;
outer side of limbs, and body beneath buffy; hands dark brown; feet
bright rufous; tail chestnut with black tips to the hairs on basal half,
but nearly all black on apical half. Ex type British Museum.
It will thus be seen from the above descriptions that while the
general resemblance is the same, yet there are various differences in
coloration sufficient to mislead unless the species’ tendency to exhibit
individual variations was not known nor understood. The black nose
will, however, always distinguish L. ruLvus from L. Moncos, as well as
its larger size, but neither of these characters are sufficient to separate
it from the next species with which it is more closely allied, at least
so far as coloration is concerned.

RED LEMUR.
Type locality. Madagascar. Type in Paris Museum.
Geogr. Distr. Southern Madagascar from the River Tsidsibon to
the River Mangonka, 21° 30’. (Schlegel).
Genl. Char. Frontal band, and whiskers whitish or yellowish
white.
Color. Spot between eyes on forehead, and sides of nose dark
reddish brown; top, and sides of head yellowish white; sides of head
beneath ears, back of neck, entire upper parts of body, and outer side

under side of body and inner side of limbs pale golden yellow; hands
and feet golden yellow; tail dark rufous with blackish hairs towards
tip. Ex co-type in Leyden Museum. Skull in the specimen.
This example is stated to be “un des types du Lemur rufus E.
Geoff.” It is, as the description shows, of a bright rufous color, quite
different in appearance from all the other Lemurs. It came from the
Paris Museum in 1815.
The type of Lemur rufus Geoffroy, is in the Paris Museum but in
a very dilapidated condition. In fact, excepting the hind neck and
dorsal region, there is very little color remaining, and the specimen
or co-type in the Leyden Museum is in a much better state.
As near as it can be given, the following is a description of this
type.
Color. Nose on top and on sides black; a narrow line from occiput
over center of head broadening out on forehead and between eyes black,
154 LEMUR
tinged with brown; on each side of this on top of head, and on sides
in front of ears white or yellowish white; beneath ears, hind neck, and
upper parts of body, and shoulders, deep ochraceous buff with a red-
dish tinge; arms much discolored, but seem to be paler than back until
halfway on forearms where they are like the upper parts to wrists and
hands; outer side of legs and flanks pale golden yellow; feet so dis-
colored with the dust of years, nearly a century, that it is impossible
to tell with certainty what was the original color, but from one or two
places that show a little color, it would seem to have been like that on :
the back; under parts and inner side of limbs pale golden yellow, |
possibly, originally a rich golden yellow; tail mostly denuded of fur,
and what remains is black with dust, but probably in the life of the
animal it was like the back, reddish and ochraceous buff.
Measurements. Total length, 915.67; tail, 458.37; foot, 101.60.
Ex type Paris Museum. Skull in specimen.

LEMUR 155
WHITE-FACED LEMUR.
Type locality. Madagascar. Type not in Paris Museum.
Geogr. Distr. Eastern coast of Madagascar from Masindrano on
the south to Bay of Antongil on the north.
Genl. Char. Greater part of head white.
Color. Male. Forehead, cheeks, temples, back of head and ears
white ; face from above eyes, and nose black; upper part of body, and
outer side of limbs dark brown, each hair tipped with bright pale
rufous, giving the fur a speckled appearance; entire under parts, and
inner side of limbs whitish gray; hands and feet like outer side of
limbs ; basal half of tail like the back, apical half black.
Female. Paler than the male, and the white seen on the head of
the male, is dark gray on the female.
Measurements. Similar in size to L. rutvus. Skull: occipito-
nasal length, 84; Hensel, 75 ; zygomatic width, 49; intertemporal width,
27; median length of nasals, 31; palatal length, 37; length of upper
molar series, 28 ; width of braincase, 38; length of mandible, 57 ; length
of lower molar series, 31.
This is a large Lemur, easily distinguished from all others by hav-
ing the head from the eyes to behind the ears, and the cheeks white.
The type, if it ever was in the Paris Museum, has disappeared. On
plate XIII of the Cimelia Physica J. F. Miller has figured an animal
with a heart shaped white spot on the forehead, and described by Shaw
as having the “upper part of the neck and back, hind part of the
thighs and tail black; the under part of the neck and body and the
limbs white. On the forehead is a large heart-shaped spot pointing
downward.” To this figure Gmelin, (1. c.) gave the name of bicolor.
It has been suggested by Shaw and others that perhaps this creature
is the same as LEMuR ALBIFRONS Geoffroy, but excepting the white
on the forehead it bears no resemblance whatever to Geoffroy’s species,
and the restricted area of white on the head is very unlike the almost
entirely white head of L. atBirrons. Miller’s animal is apparently
adult, and does not seem to be in a state where the color of the pelage
is changing to something else, and this condition, moreover, is not
habitual with the Lemurs, as the young usually closely resemble the
adults. L. ALBIFRONS is not common in collections, and it cannot be
said that it is at all well known in so far as its appearance at all
ages is concerned, but with the knowledge that we have at present, it
would be very unwise to reduce Geoffroy’s name to a synonym in favor
of that bestowed by Gmelin to an animal he probably had never seen,
and which has no representative in any collection. Miller’s example
156 LEMUR
should more properly be assigned a place among those quasi species
deemed indeterminable.

GRAY-HEADED LEMUR.
Type locality. Unknown.
Geogr. Distr. Madagascar.
Genl. Char. Hands and feet bright rufous red; head gray.
Color. Top of head, face and ears gray; rest of pelage, body,
limbs, hands, feet, and tail bright rufous red.
The type of this form was not in the Paris Museum although a
diligent search was made for it, and I could not therefore give a
description from the example, nor take any measurements.
No description was ever published so far as I have been able to
learn, except the short one in Forbes, (1. c.) and all we know of the
form, is the figure in the work above cited. Whether or not a figure
alone is sufficient (no matter how well colored it may be) to establish
a species, naturalists are not yet in accord, and as the above brief
description was taken from the plate, it may not be sufficient to make
amends for former lapses. The plate exhibits a figure of an apparently
distinct animal.

The type of this form was purchased by the Paris Museum from |
the Zoological Society of London, the skull, however, is in the British
Museum. It is a large animal, and may possibly be a melanism of L.
RUFUS or L. FULVUS, or a male of some species of the L. macaco style.
The fact that nothing is known of its habitat, or whence the specimen
came, makes it difficult to form an opinion upon its specific value, and
we are therefore compelled, for the present, to keep it separate from
the other species of the genus.

RING-TAILED LEMUR.
Type locality. Madagascar.
Geogr. Distr. South, and southwestern borders of Betsileo Prov-
ince, Central Madagascar. Province Anossi, (Schlegel and Pollen).
Genl. Char. Prominent spur in old males on forearm above wrist ;
comb-like growth, in females and young, continuous with palm of hand
by a hairless skin; near this is a gland surrounded by stiff hairs; tail
long, conspicuously banded.
Color. Top of head grizzled white and black; neck, shoulders and
back to rump and sides of body fawn, hairs tipped with white; a black
_ band from cheeks to shoulders; outer side of limbs and rump pearl
gray, inner side of limbs, and under part of body white; hands gray
like arms; feet white; ears white; tail banded with numerous rings
alternately black and white, tip black.
Measurements. Skull: occipito-nasal length, 75 ; Hensel, 70; zygo-
matic width, 45.5; intertemporal width, 15; width of braincase, 39;
palatal length, 35; median length of nasals, 21; length of upper molar.
series, 27 ; length of mandible, 53; length of lower molar series, 30.
This is the most beautiful of all the Lemurs, the soft, delicate color-
ing of the body, with the strongly contrasted rings on the long tail,
easily enabling the species to exceed all others in the attractiveness of
its appearance. Of course it would be a conspicuous object anywhere,
and when met with in the localities it frequents, the traveller’s attention
would be at once arrested, and the following statement of its habits was
given by one of its fortunate observers, Mr. George A. Shaw in the
Proceedings of the London Zoological Society (1. c.). He says that
in his seven years’ experience of the species the animals were found only
in the south and south western part of Betsileo Province. This province
is on the center table land from 100 to 250 miles south of Antananarivo,
the capital, and extends for 150 miles with a width of 50 to 60 miles.
The eastern side is covered with forest, fringing the table land, and
covering the slopes into the lowland bordering the sea. The Lemurs
160 LEMUR
dwell among the rocks in the south and southwest portion, and are not
arboreal. Their hands (hands and feet?) have long, smooth, level and
leather like palms which give them a firm footing on the wet, slippery
rocks, over which they easily travel, as a fly does on a pane of glass, and
people, although barefooted, are unable to follow them. The thumbs
are smaller in proportion to those of the forest Lemurs, whose fingers
are suitable for grasping as they spring from tree to tree, rarely
descending to the ground except for water. There are very few trees
where the Ring-tailed Lemurs live, and these are stunted and bushy.
These Lemurs have two long upper fangs, longest in the males, and
with these they take away the outer coating of the prickly pear which
is full of fine spines, and which forms their principal food, as it grows
abundantly in the crevices and around the foot of the rocks. In sum-
mer they feed on various kinds of wild figs and bananas. The fangs,
(canines), are doubtless used for self defence, although when fighting
they depend chiefly on their hands, with which they scratch and
strike, and a male has been seen to whip a dog larger than itself by
these means. They are very easily tamed, and will eat almost any kind
of fruit, but no cooked meat; cooked rice however, they can be induced
to eat. They do not drink in the wild state, as is proved by native state-
ments, and from the fact of their abstaining for a month or more when
in captivity, and living on bananas during that period. The Lemurs
living on the west, including two species of white Lemurs, (PROPITHE-
cus), subsist without water, but those on the east invariably drink
when feeding.
There is no difference in appearance between the sexes.

RUFFED LEMUR.
Type locality. Madagascar.
Geogr. Distr. North eastern Madagascar from Adenpone to Cape
Masoala at the entrance of Antongil Bay, and into the interior to
Bengoa.
Genl. Char. Color black and white, and variable in the extreme in
the arrangement; apparently purely individual. Tail thick, long; ears
hidden in fur; chin naked ; coat thick and woolly.
Color. Excessively variable. Possibly the most usual style has the
nose black on top, the sides covered with short yellowish white hairs;
cheeks, forehead, top of head, neck, upper back, arms to elbows, wrists,
outer edge of thighs, ankles, inner side of limbs, under parts, hands,
feet and tail black ; rump, flanks, outer side of thighs, and legs to ankles
white. In some examples there is a white collar around the neck
beneath the head, and the:hind neck is white down to the lower back,
and this is often tinged with orange or deep buff; but the extent and
distribution of these two colors varies so greatly that it is practically
impossible to find two individuals alike.
Measurements. Skull: occipito-nasal length, 99; Hensel, 89;
zygomatic width, 59; intertemporal width, 40; palatal length, 44;
medium length of nasals, 31; length of upper molar series, 30; length
of mandible, 39; length of lower molar series, 35.
Coquerel states, (1. c.) that this animal is considered sacred by the
natives of Tamatave, and they say it worships the sun, and prays to it
every morning. This idea doubtless comes from a habit this Lemur
has in common with the Mococo. An individual of this species which
he had in captivity, at the first rays of the sun appearing sat up on its
hind legs and remaining erect, would open and extend the arms holding
them in this position while looking at the sun, as if its vivifying in-
fluence would by this action be received within itself. One, seeing
Lemurs in European menageries, would obtain no idea of the activity
they display in their native wilds, or of the grace of their movements
and their incredible agility in the Madagascar forests, as they launch
162 LEMUR
themselves from branch to branch with astonishing precision, and pass
from tree to tree in prodigious leaps.

RED-RUFFED LEMUR. Native name Varikossi.
Type locality. Madagascar. Type not found in Paris Museum.
Geogr. Distr. Eastern Madagascar, from Bay of Antongil in the
north to Masindrano in the south.
Color. Back of neck and circle around ankles white; ruff, rusty
or orange red; upper part and sides of body, and outer side of limbs
rusty red; under parts, and inner side of limbs and tail, black. Varia-
tions from this style are frequently seen, but the predominant color is
usually some shade of red.
Measurements. Size same as L. variecatus. Skull: occipito-
nasal length, 99; Hensel, 85 ; zygomatic width, 59 ; intertemporal width,
34; median length of nasals, 33; length of upper molar series, 36;
length of mandible, 70; length of lower molar series, 32.
This handsome variety of LEMUR VARIEGATUS apparently ranges
to the south of that species on the eastern coast of Madagascar, the two
forms meeting at the Bay of Antongil. While exhibiting sundry styles
of different colorations, it is not subject to such extreme variations as
those shown by its relatives. Its bright color gives it a very gay and
attractive appearance, even more striking than that of the strongly
contrasted hues of L. variecatus. No especial records have been
given of the habits of this form, but it is not supposed that they differ
in any degree from those of its relative.

WOOLLY AVAHI. Native name Ovandros, Ampongui.
Type locality. Madagascar.
Geogr. Distr. Eastern coast of Madagascar, and the Bay of
Passandava on the west coast. St. Mary’s Island, (Coquerel).
Color. Face covered with russet hairs, nose pad naked; a buff
band across forehead, anterior to which is a blackish band; top of head
and neck blackish brown, hairs white tipped; ears and patch beneath
tawny black; shoulders, and upper parts of back tawny, tips of hairs
paler, their bases slate; tips of hairs on lower back, and outer side of
legs buff; patch on rump buff; upper parts washed with ochraceous;
under parts, and inner side of limbs dark gray; hands dark reddish;
feet reddish; tail bright dark cinnamon rufous.
Measurements. Skull: occipito-nasal length, 49; Hensel, 38;
zygomatic width, 37; intertemporal width, 21; median length of nasals,
LICHANOTUS 165
9; breadth of braincase, 26; length of upper molar series, 17 ; length of

This curious little animal, with a coat much resembling wool, is
strictly nocturnal in its habits, sleeping during the day. It is arboreal,
and inhabits the forests on the eastern coast of Madagascar, and
along the Bay of Passandava on the west coast. Examples from the
north western part are smaller and of a lighter color. Coquerel (1. c.)
states that this animal is found in the great forest of Tsasifout on the
Island of St. Mary and is known to the natives by the name Ampongui.
It is more decidedly nocturnal than the true Lemurs and a more stupid
animal.

Habrocebus Wagn., Schreb., Saugth. Suppl., I, 1840, pp. IX, 257.
Head longer than broad; muzzle black, naked; ears partly con-
cealed in the fur, hairy ; tail long; index finger not united to the others.
Between the arms and the body is a fold of skin. Skull: upper in-
cisors protruding, the inner pair approximating and longer than outer;
braincase high; diastema between upper canines and premolars; lower
molars quadricuspidate.
The Sifakas, as these rather handsome animals are called, are
remarkable for their wonderful diversity of coloration.
As now restricted only two species are recognized, each having
several subspecies, which are only met with in certain localities apart
from their species. The color is usually white varied with yellowish,
red, or black markings. Sometimes black phases occur when the entire
pelage is of that hue. The animals are only found in Madagascar, and
very little has been recorded of their habits. They are dwellers of many
parts of the Island, and are not confined to the forests, but are met with
in the arid tracts, and on the plains where trees are infrequent. Albino
individuals are found, mostly belonging to the P. v. deckeni variety, a
form that exhibits very great diversity of color and pattern among
individuals. In fact examples of most of the forms vary so much in
this respect that many descriptions would be necessary to make them
recognizable, and enable one, not familiar with the group, to attribute
the examples to their proper place among the different accepted forms.
The Sifakas are venerated and never killed by the natives of Mada-
gascar. They are inoffensive animals, going about in troops of half
a dozen individuals, and live upon various leaves, fruits and flowers,
quite a different diet from that of other species of Lemurs. During
the heat of the day they sleep in some secluded place among the foliage
and are active in the early mornings and evenings.

GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES AND SUBSPECIES.
On the eastern coast of Madagascar, P. plapEMA ranges from the
Bay of Antongil on the north to the Masora River in the south; and
P. d. edwardsi from the Faraouny to the Masora; and north of An-
tongil Bay P. v. sericeus is found. On the west coast, in the northern
part P. v. coronatus is met with from the Bay of Mozamba to the
Manjaray River, and also for some distance into the interior. Between
the southern base of the eastern range of mountains and the River
Tsidsibon P. vERREAUXI is found; while P. v. coquereli is met with
from the north side of Bombetok Bay to the south side of Marendry
Bay, the Betsiboka River being its southern limit. In the center of the
west coast on the great plains between the Rivers Mananbolo and Man-
zarayo, P. v. deckeni has its range. j

BLACK INDRIS, Endrina or Babakotou, and Amboanala in Madagascar.
Type locality. Madagascar.
Geogr. Distr. Eastern coast of Madagascar, in forests on the
eastern side of the high mountains between the Bay of Antongil on
the north and the River Masara on the south.
Genl. Char. Those of the genus.
Color. The single species of this genus is so extremely variable
that any description given can only be regarded as pertaining to the
specimen then under consideration. No two individuals are exactly
alike and the varieties of the color patterns are only limited by the
number of examples in a collection. Face black or dark gray; head,
INDRIS 177
neck, back, shoulders and arms black; in some the crown is white; sides
of neck and forearms are grayish white; a band starting from point
in middle of back and widening as it goes down and embracing the
entire rump and root of tail, white; sides dark gray tinged with brown;
upper surface of thighs from body to middle of leg below knee inside,
black; rest of thighs and legs dark gray; under parts of body and tail
gray; hands and feet black. In some specimens the lower back is
ashy gray; flanks bright rufous; tufts over ears large, upright, black.
Although exhibiting such a great variety of color patterns as well as
diversity of hues, the species can never be confounded with any
other, its large size and stumpy tail making it at all times easily
recognizable.
Measurements. Skull: occipito-nasal length, 91; Hensel, 82;
zygomatic breadth, 58; intertemporal width, 36; length of nasals, 20;
width of braincase, 43; length of upper molar series, 31; palatal length,
35; length of mandible, 66; length of lower molar series, 34.
Coquerel (l.c.) has given an interesting account of the habits of
this species as observed by him in Madagascar. He says it is well
known to the inhabitants who call it Babakotou, but never Indri which
means in their language “Behold,” “look,” “see there!” It is probable
when Europeans first hunted this animal, the natives drew their atten-
tion to it by calling out Indri, and in this way the idea was formed
that that was the native name for it. It is very common in the forests
of Tamatava where it is considered sacred. The natives never kill
it, and they say that the trees on which the Babakotou live supply a
sure remedy for many forms of illness; and they gather carefully the
leaves of the trees in which they have seen the animals, for their
benefit. The natives state it is very dangerous to attack a Babakotou
even with a spear. If this weapon is thrown at one, you may be sure
it will be seized in its flight before reaching its mark and will be
immediately hurled back at the thrower, and the Babakotou never
misses its aim. The tales of which the /ndri is the hero are endless.
Its ways are full of mystery, and it is subject at birth to a severe
trial. When the young one is born, the female takes it in her
arms and throws it to the male, who is stationed at a considerable
distance away, and he throws it back to its mother, and this is repeated
a dozen times or more. If the baby falls to the ground, it is left there,
the parents making no effort to recover it, but if it passes the trial
without falling, it is tenderly cared for. The Jndri is not found on any
178 INDRIS
of the outlying islands near Madagascar. This animal is gregarious
and goes in troops of considerable numbers, is the largest of the Lemu-
roides, and is not nocturnal. One of its names is Amboanala or ‘Dog
of the Forest,’ so called on account of the howls it utters, and which
resemble those of a dog. Its voice is very powerful, the laryngeal
sac contributing to this, and enabling the creature to utter loud cries.
It lives in the trees and subsists mainly on fruits of various kinds,
but will eat the brains of any bird it can catch. Its melancholy cry is
frequently heard in the forest resembling that uttered by a person in
distress. According to Dr. Vinson the natives free these animals if
they find one in captivity and bury them when dead. The Betanemena
tribe relate a legend of a certain tribe which was at war with neighbors
and fled for refuge into the forest. Its enemy pursuing and guided
as supposed by human voices, saw before them a troup of Jnudri, and
believing those they were following had been changed into beasts,
they fled terror stricken, while the fugitives vowed eternal gratitude
to their deliverers, and have never since harmed them.

Face naked, hairy in young; no mane; head in front of ears bald;
ears naked, exposed; tail not ringed.
With this genus we enter the SusorDER ANTHROPOIDEA. The
Tamarins all belong to the Platyrrhine or New World Monkeys, and
in many respects occupy the lowest rank. They possess but thirty-
two teeth, instead of thirty-six as in the CeBmp@ and higher Apes, as
well as in man, the discrepancy being caused by the absence of two
molars in each jaw, only eight in all remaining.
The Tamarins placed in this work in the four genera SENIOCEBUS,
*CERCOPITHECUS, LEONTOCEBUS with a subgenus Marikina, and
CEpipomipas, are small delicate creatures with silky fur, and long,
thick, almost bushy tails. By the earlier writers they were contained
either in CALLITHRIX or Hapale with the Marmosets, but are now not
considered cogeneric with the species contained in the first of those
genera, and the second Hapale, being antedated, becomes a synonym.
The chief difference between the members of CALLITHRIx and the
species now under consideration is found in the teeth, the canines of
the lower jaw being longer than the incisors, a distinction deemed by
some Authors as perhaps hardly sufficient to cause the Tamarins to be
separated generically from their relatives. Tamarins and Marmosets
resemble each other, and the skulls with the large braincase are much
alike. Both groups possess but little intelligence, as the cerebrum, in
its smooth surface almost lacking in convolutions, would seem clearly
*See Elliot, in Bull. Am. Mus. Nat. Hist., N. Y., 1911, p. 341.
180 SENIOCEBUS
to indicate. These animals possess somewhat rounded heads, and
large eyes and mouths; the ears are conspicuous, standing out from the
hair, and the face is small and short. Rather long whiskers and manes
are often present. In captivity, even in their own land, they rarely
live long, and usually succumb in a brief period when carried to
northern climes, cold temperatures being fatal to them. They are
pretty creatures, and a number of the species bear a certain resemblance
to each other, and so it is possible to arrange them in groups, dis-
tinguished by the hair on head and neck, being respectively long or
short.

GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES.
The most northern country inhabited by the Tamarin Monkeys is
Central America where in the southern portion, in Costa Rica and
extending its range through Panama to the Isthmus, C#p1pomipas
GEOFFROYI is found. In the Guianas, northern South America, CEr-
COPITHECUS MIDAS is a dweller of the English and Dutch Guianas, and
CERCOPITHECUS RUFIMANUS is met with in French Guiana, and on the
banks of the Rio Araguay, Province of Goyas, Brazil, and as stated
by Tschudi, also in Peru. The great territory of Brazil contains, as
would be supposed, the greatest number of species, twenty-four in all
including C. RUFIMANUsS just mentioned. In the vicinity of Para on
the lower Amazon, near the mouth of the Rio Tocantins, C. uRSULUS is
met with, and in the forests through which the Ilhéos and Pardo flow
in eastern Brazil, LEONTOCEBUS CHRYSOMELAS occurs; and strangely
enough, though it is not known from Western Brazil, yet, according
to Tschudi, it is a native of Peru; and on the Rio Negro and on the
Upper Amazon west of Barra, SENIOCEBUS BICOLOR is found; and on
the north shore of the Amazon at Faro, near the mouth of the River
Yamunda SENIOCEBUS MARTINSI was taken. In south eastern Brazil
in the Province of Rio Janeiro, L. rosAttia is found, and if the animal
mentioned by Bates (1. c.) under the name of Midas leoninus is the
same, then it extends its range to the Upper Amazon, although there
are no records of its appearance in the intervening districts. In the
Province of Sao Paulo near Ipanema, L. cHRysSopyGus is met with, and
on the banks of the Rio Solimoens, and as stated by Castelnau and
Deville, also at Pebas, Peru, L. NiGRICOLLIS occurs. In the forests
between the rivers Solimoens and Ica, L. mystax and L. FUSCICOLLIS
dwell; and on the banks of the Rio Purus, Upper Amazon, L. 1m-
PERATOR has been procured. Near the Rio Javari on the borders of
Brazil and Peru, L. NicRIFRONS occurs, and its range extends to the
Rio Copataza in Ecuador. Between the Rio Solimoens and Rio Javari,
L. LABIATUS has been obtained, and Tschudi states it is also a native
of Peru. At Tunambins on the Upper Amazon L. THoMAsI was
obtained, its range unknown, and still more indefinite, somewhere on
the Upper Amazon, no locality given, L. taconotus was taken. At
Popayan, Colombia, the monkey seen by Humboldt and called by him
186 SENIOCEBUS
Simia LEONINA, but not procured, occurs. In Colombia, at Cartagena
and Turbaco C£pipomipas cpipus is found, and on the River San
Jorge SENIOCEBUS METICULOSUs was taken, and in Ecuador on the Rio
Napo L. tripartitus and L. GRAELLSI have been obtained; and in the
same State on the banks of the Rio Copataza, L. apicuLatus and L.
ILLIGERI are met with, the latter species possibly extending its range
into Colombia, (see I. Geoff., Cat Primates, p. 65). In Peru near
_ Pebas, L. PILEATUS was procured; and on the banks of the rivers
Ucayali and Huallaga, L. pevitii1 dwells. Finally, in the Province of
Apolobamba, Bolivia, L. wEDDELI is found. In the above recapitulation
of the general distribution of these small monkeys, the ranges are
given according to the records obtained from specimens collected.
While some species may have a restricted habitat, others probably have
much more extensive ranges than those known at present. The interior
of Brazil, removed from the banks of its great rivers, is as yet im-
perfectly known, and it will not be until its vast forests and inland
savannas have been thoroughly penetrated and explored, that the
Geographical distribution of its Faunz, and the ranges of its individual
species can be definitely ascertained.

PIED TAMARIN.
Type locality. Rio Negro, Brazil. Type in Munich Museum.
Geogr. Distr. Eastern bank of the Rio Negro, Brazil. Pebas,
Upper Amazon west of Barra, (Castelnau and Dev.).
Genl. Char. Head in front of ears naked; hairs on back of head
long, white ; face in young, hairy; tail very long.
Color. Head in front of ears, naked, black; back of head, neck,
back between shoulders, arms, chest to middle of belly ending in a
point, white; back and legs yellowish brown, darkest on dorsal line;
hands white; feet golden yellow; sides of lower chest, abdomen and
inner side of legs, deep orange rufous; tail, black above, orange rufous
beneath.
Measurements. Skin, total length, about 650; tail, 380. Skull:
occipito-nasal length, 49; zygomatic width, 34; intertemporal width,
24; palatal length, 14; width of braincase, 27; length of nasals, 7;
length of upper molar series, 9; length of mandible, 32; length of
lower molar series, 31.
This monkey has a peculiar appearance with its bare head and
white coloring, which makes it rather exceptional among the Tamarins.
There is also a total absence of brilliant colors possessed by many of
its relatives, save on the under parts, inner side of legs and tail,
beneath. The immature individuals have the head covered with short
white hairs.
The type in the Munich Museum is not adult, the head being
covered with short white hairs. It is in good condition and is well
represented in Spix’s plate, though the coloring in the specimen is not
so bright. Another specimen, not obtained by Spix, is older with the
head entirely bare.
Bates, (1. c.) states that this monkey was rather common in the
forests at Barra on the lower Amazon, and is restricted so far as he
knew, to the eastern bank of the Rio Negro.
A specimen in the Paris Museum, was obtained by Castelnau and
Deville at Pebas on the Upper Amazon west of Barras, where Bates
and Natterer also found this species. Like its relatives it goes in
small troops, running along the main boughs of the loftier trees, and
climbing perpendicular trunks, but never taking flying leaps.

American Museum of Natural History, New York.
Genl. Char. Head and ears naked; no orange rufous on under
parts; rump, root of tail and thighs bright bay.
Color. Male. Face and forehead covered with short white hairs;
top of head and nape covered with very long white hairs, forming a high
crest on the head and flowing over the back between the shoulders;
rest of head, ears and throat naked, black; upper parts to rump dark
drab; flanks paler, the hairs on the latter as well as those between the
shoulders tipped with white; hairs on upper arms and shoulders from
roots bright bay, with terminal third drab and tips white; thighs, rump
at root of tail, and hind side of legs bright bay; rest of legs, arms,
inner side of limbs, entire under parts silvery white; hands and feet
grayish white; tail above bright bay on basal third, the same color
extending for half the length on under side, remainder jet black. Ex
type American Museum of Natural History, New York.
Measurements. Total length, 660.5 mm; tail, 400; foot, 80. Skull:

Female. Resembles the male, except there is very little of the
bright bay color on the shoulders and’ rump, while the thighs are
colored like the upper parts, dark drab, the hairs tipped with bay. Tail
like that of the male.
Two examples of this handsome little monkey, the third species
known of the genus, were received at the American Museum of Natural
History in New York from Mrs. E. L. Kerr, Cartagena, collected in
the forest on the River San Jorge, Colombia. While bearing in some
of its coloration a resemblance to the species known for so long a time
from Brazil, S. prcoLor, its bright bay rump and thighs, pure silvery
white under parts and inner side of limbs, and grayish white hands
and feet cause it to differ in a conspicuous manner from its relative.
The lately described S. MarTins1 (Thomas), is the third known species
of the genus.

*Some Naturalists maintain that Gronow was not a binominalist, and that,
therefore, his genera must not be recognized. Against this view stands the
almost unanimous opinion of the Commission on Zoological Nomenclature
appointed by the International Zoological Congress held at Leyden in 1810.
The report which was adopted by a vote of eleven in favor to one against is
as follows: “It is clear that Gronow’s nomenclature is binary, that is, he names
two units or things, genera and species. His generic names, therefore, cor-
respond to the provisions of the Code, and are to be accepted as available under
the Code.”
It is not to be doubted, therefore, that an Opinion passed with so much
unanimity will become a LAw at the next meeting of the Congress, and
Gronow’s name will be accepted by all Naturalists.

A single specimen is in the British Museum Collection procured
by G. K. Cherrie at Ipoussin on Approuague River, Cayenne. This
resembles C. MIDAS with the exceptions given above, but the coloring
of the specimens from the different localities is striking and arrests
the attention at once. The nasals are much longer, and the difference
in the height of the face of the skull is remarkable.
Geoffroy’s type in the Paris Museum is in an excellent state of
preservation, but the hands and feet are not so deep in color as those
of the British Museum specimen, having faded considerably. Other-
wise the examples are alike.

“Tn the vicinity of Para,” says Mr. Bates, (1. c.) “the only monkey
I saw frequently was the little Midas ursulus.” It is never seen in
large flocks, three or four being the greatest number he had found
together. It was less afraid of the neighborhood of man than any
other of its Tribe. He at times saw it in the woods bordering the
suburban streets, and once saw two in a thicket behind the house of the
English Consul at Nazareth. Its mode of travelling along the boughs
of the lofty trees resembled a Squirrel, and it does not go on the
slender branches, nor make flying leaps, but confines itself to the larger
boughs and to the trunks of the trees, its long nails enabling it to cling
securely to the bark, and it often rapidly encircles the trunks of the
perpendicular trees. It is quick, restless and timid, and has much
curiosity, for should a person pass under the trees on which a flock
of these little creatures is running, they always stop to stare at the
intruder. In Para, it is often seen tamed in the houses, but when first
captured, or tied up, it is very timid and irritable, not allowing itself
to be approached, but retreating when any one draws near.
When treated kindly, however, as it generally is in the houses of
the natives, it becomes very tame and familiar. He once saw one as
playful as a kitten running after the negro children and fondled by
them. It did not like strangers to sit in the hammock which was hung
in the room, and tried to bite them. It fed on bananas and insects,
especially spiders and grasshoppers. This little monkey has a very
intelligent and pleasant face, and when its curiosity is excited, it in-
clines its head to one side and has a very knowing expression. Although
the absence of convolutions in the brain would seem to indicate a low
type, Bates considered this a very unsafe guide, for in mobility of
expression and general ways, he considered these small monkeys resem-
bled the higher Apes, more than any other Rodent animal with which
he was acquainted.

Type locality. “le Brésil?” Type in Paris Museum.
Geogr. Distr. Forests on north side of the Amazon; Rio Javari,
(Schlegel) ; Rio Solimoens, (Natterer) ; Peru, (Tschudi).
Genl. Char. General color dark reddish brown; lips white; mane
absent.
Color. Head black, with a median brown stripe on the crown,
becoming broader and greenish in color on occiput ; lips white ; arms to
elbows, legs to ankles, and upper parts of body dark reddish brown,
almost blackish on dorsal region; forearms, hands and feet, black;
under parts and inner side of limbs, rich orange red; tail, tawny at
base beneath, remainder black with a purplish tinge; ears black. Ex
type Paris Museum.
Measurements. Total length, about 415; tail, 205. Skull in the
type.
The above description gives the present appearance of the type of
this species.. While it has undoubtedly faded somewhat in the more
brilliant and delicate colors, its general aspect cannot have changed
much, and what is now dark brown was never black as given by most
authors as the color of the body; for the head, hands, feet and tail are
as black as they probably ever were; the tail alone showing a purplish
tint which no doubt always existed. The brilliant orange red of the
under parts still remains where the hairs have not disappeared.
Measurements. Total length, 520; tail, 390, (skin). Skull: occip-
ito-nasal length, 46; Hensel, 31; palatal length, 15; intertemporal
width, 23 ; median length of nasals, 8; length of upper molar series, 9;
length of mandible, 28; length of lower molar series, 11.
The type of Midas rufiventer Gray, is like L. LABratus but has a
small gray spot on the crown between the ears and the nape. This is
probably an individual peculiarity, and is the only difference in color
a
LEONTOCEBUS 197
between the example and specimens of L. LaBiatus, and is hardly
sufficient to be regarded as a distinctive character. Gray in his descrip-
tion (1. c.) states that this head spot was the same color as the under
parts, “chestnut brown.” At present it is gray, as above stated, and
must have faded considerably. The under parts are now ochraceous
rufous, and this part, in the intervening sixty or more years, has un-
doubtedly faded from the more brilliant color of the living animal. It
would seem most probable that this example is not distinct from L.
LABIATUS. Slack’s type of (M.) elegantulus is in the National Mu-
seum, Washington, in excellent preservation. The arms to elbows,
and legs to ankles, and upper parts of body are mottled black and buff,
not dark reddish brown or blackish as in the type of L. LaBiatus, but
this difference may be caused by age. The rest of the pelage is like
that of the type of L. LaBratus.
Midas griseoventris Goeldi, I have not seen, as there was no
example in any European Museum. Its chief character for separating
it from the present species appears to be the color of the patch or stripe
on the crown which is stated to be white. This certainly is not the
color of the patch or stripe on the crown of L. LABIATUS type. Gray’s
rufiventer has now a gray patch on the crown although, as stated above,
it was described as chestnut brown. It may be there is a race of L.
LABIATUS with a gray or white crown patch, but in such a case it would
have to be determined whether Goeldi and Gray’s examples represent
the same species, and if they do, Gray’s name rufiventer though a poor
one, would take precedence, and comparisons of specimens would be
necessary to decide this. For the present, therefore, I place Goeldi’s
name among the synonyms of L. LaBiaTus with a question mark.

The type is possibly a little darker than specimens of this species
generally are, but the pale color, such as chestnut buff seen in fresh
specimens, has faded to white on the back, between the shoulders and
on flanks. Otherwise it still represents the species.

Genl. Char. Fur ringed, and washed with rufous. Tail very long.
Color. A narrow line on forehead above eyes black; top and sides
of head, nape and mantle, blackish chestnut speckled with reddish
brown; lips and face beneath eyes, white; shoulders, arms, throat and
chest, reddish brown speckled with black; back, rump and sides,

brown, remainder black, with reddish brown hairs mingled with the
black. Ex type Paris Museum.
Measurements. Total length, 620; tail, 330.
This species in certain ways resembles L. NIGRICOLLIS Spix, but
does not have the head entirely black like that species, the black being
confined to the forehead. There are other differences in the coloration
of portions of the body, which influence me to keep the two forms
apart, although it is not impossible that eventually they may be proved
to be the same species. The type has no locality, but Schlegel states
that the specimen in the Leyden Museum was obtained on the Rio
Javari, and Thomas received six examples from the Rio Copataza in
Ecuador.

The type of Midas rufoniger I. Geoffroy, in the Paris Museum,
agrees perfectly with the above description, except the upper part of
the throat is a yellowish brown. This appears to be caused by the
paucity of hair on that part, there not being enough black tips, which
produce the color for this part, to be spread all over. Wherever the
hairs are sufficiently numerous the color is black. Geoffroy’s species
is without doubt the same as L. NicRICOLLIS (Spix).
There are two examples of this species inthe Munich Museum both
marked ‘types.’ These are in good condition, only slightly discolored
by dust, but the dark colors of the pelage have not faded. The skulls
of each are in the specimens.
Bates (1. c.) has given a very interesting account of this monkey
under the name of Midas rufoniger 1. Geoff. Its habits are the same
as those of C. ursuLus and he imagined it was a form or race of the
same stock, modified to suit the altered local conditions under which
it lived. One day, he says, while walking along a forest pathway, he
saw one of these small creatures which was passing with a number of
his fellows, miss his hold and fall head first about fifty feet to the
ground. He managed to alight on his hands and feet, however, in
the path, and turning quickly around he stared at the intruder on his
domain for a few moments, and then bounded away to climb another
tree.

This species has been united to L. pEvILLII by some Authors, but
it presents too many differences from that form to justify us, with only
LEONTOCEBUS 203
our present knowledge of the changes that may occur towards the
adult state, in uniting them. ;
The examples are both quite small, and judging from the teeth
that show in the open mouth, the type is the younger animal, but the
white face, only displayed in the front part of the whiskers of L.
DEVILLII, and the general reddish brown color of the pelage, with the
absence of mottling on the lower back, cause the two types to appear
so different that it would seem best to permit them to remain under
different names until we have more knowledge as to the respective
changes, if any, which may occur in the coloration of the pelage of L.
DEVILLII from the youthful to the adult state.

The type of Midas leucogenys Gray, is in the British Museum
Collection. It is a young animal about half grown, and in all its mark-
ings exactly corresponds with the adult (M.) pEviLL11 Geoffroy. There
seems to be no reason whatever to separate it from the present species.
The type of L. pEvILL1i in the Paris Museum, presents the coloration
described, but it has lost much fur from the under parts of the body,
and the reddish chestnut of that part is not so pronounced as is shown
in recent specimens.
Bartlett, who met with this species in eastern Peru, says (1. c.) it
was plentiful on the Peruvian Amazons, and he obtained examples on
both the Huallaga and Ucayali rivers. There is but little difference
between the sexes, the male being rather larger and darker in color,
especially the long hair on nape and neck. It is an extremely delicate
animal and will not bear the least cold, and he could only keep them
alive for two or three weeks, as they seemed to suffer from cold, and
died. The Indian women make pets of them, and allow them to stay
amid the long hair on their heads, and thus protected they will live
for a long time. Becoming tame they come out and feed, and having
captured a spider or two, they scamper back to their refuge amid the
luxuriant hair of their owners, who are usually unwilling to part with
them.

’ Genl. Char. Hairs on upper back very long, forming a mantle.
Color. Male. Forehead between eyes, face beneath eyes and
upper and lower lips, white; head, hands, feet, inner side of arms and
tail except at base, black; upper part of back and shoulders, liver
brown speckled with black; outer side of arms, and under part of body
dark liver brown slightly speckled with black; lower back black, hairs
broadly tipped with ochraceous; sides of rump and legs, and base
of tail, dark reddish, but lighter than upper back. Ex type Paris
Museum. : ,
Female. Resembles the male, but the hair on upper back is shorter,
and the arms, legs, and under parts are a lighter and brighter red.
Measurements. In size about equal to L. LaBiatus; tail, 380.

The type of this species is believed, according to Pucheran
(1. c.) to have come from Colombia, and Thomas has received speci-
mens from the banks of the Copataza River, Ecuador. It has gener-
ally been given as from eastern Peru, but it is probable that the
examples from that portion of South America were not this species,
but L. WEDDELI.

This strikingly colored species, so unlike any of the genus, is
recognizable at once. The jet black head and throat, contrasted with
the bright colors of the body make it most conspicuous. The type
in the Paris Museum has retained its color so far remarkably well, and
it is to be regretted that it should be permitted to remain exposed to the
sunlight which will eventually destroy most of the coloring, which now
eminently distinguishes it from the other species of the genus.

The type in the Munich Museum has lost most of the hair on the
top and sides of the head, and on arms to elbow; the left arm is
practically bare for entire length, as is also the hand. The hair is
mostly gone from the under side of the body. It therefore would not
serve to describe the species, and one was selected for this purpose
from the British Museum Collection. The skull is in the type specimen.

A co-type of this species is in the British Museum Collection. It
is peculiarly colored and very difficult to describe. The general appear-
ance is that of a grayish brown creature with a black head and neck,
and speckled with lighter brown on the body and hind legs. The base
of the tail is lighter than the body, and the fur generally is so shiny that
the color is very difficult to see, and varies constantly according as the
light shines upon it. Unfortunately no skull accompanied the skin.

Bates, (1. c.) says he once saw a tame individual of M. leoninus =
L. ROSALIA?, which was even more playful and intelligent than (J/.)
URSULA. In length of body it measured only seven inches, and was
friendly with every one in the house where it lived, and its greatest
pleasure was to climb about the persons of those who entered. When
he first visited the house, it ran to the chair on which he was sitting
and climbed on to his shoulder, and looking into his face showed its
teeth and chattered as though it would say, “Well, and how do you do?”
It was very affectionate with its master and would climb upon his head a
dozen times in an hour, and make a great show of searching for certain
animalcule. Of this species Isidore Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire knew of
one individual that distinguished between different objects in an
engraving. When shown figures of a cat and wasp, it was very much
frightened, but when it saw a grasshopper or beetle, it precipitated
itself on the picture and tried to seize them.

LION TAMARIN.
Type locality. Seen at Popayan, Brazil. No specimen preserved.
Color. General hue ochre yellow shading into olive brown, annu-
lated with black; back varied with yellow; hands and feet black, face
black; around the nose and mouth bluish white.
Measurements. Total length 7 to 8 inches.
No specimens of this monkey have been procured. Humboldt saw
two living individuals at Popayan and from these he made his descrip-
tion and gave the name of LEONINA (I. c.). It inhabits the plains of
Mocoa, and the fertile banks of the Ica and Japura rivers, never goes
into temperate regions, and is rare even in the country it inhabits.
Whether these specimens represent a distinct species, or some
state of pelage of L. rosatia, or a dark form of that species it is
impossible to state, and any decision regarding it will have to be
deferred until examples are procured.

Kuhl describes this species from specimens brought by Prince
Max. of Wied from Brazil. Some of these were distributed to the
Berlin Museum, and to M. Temminck. The above description is taken
from the male example in Prince Max.’s Collection purchased by the
New York Museum and presumably the type, as it is not supposed that
the type of Kuhl’s description would be permitted to leave the collec-
tion. It is in good preservation but the delicate yellow has faded con-
siderably.

Head round; eyes large; face naked; ears large, sometimes fringed
with hair. Large whiskers are seen on several species, and the neck is
sometimes encircled with a ruff. Skull: braincase large; facial region
short; orbits large; upper incisors longer than the canines, and all
project outward.
The Marmosets are small delicate creatures, possessing a soft,
thick, silky fur, and a long rather bushy tail. In color there is much
variety among them, and some have ringed tails. In disposition they
are very timid, and while attached to, and familiar with those they are
accustomed to meet daily, are shy with strangers, and apt to meet
advances with sharp bites. The smooth skull, although the braincase
is large, indicates a low order of intelligence. The female produces
two or three young at a birth contrary to the general rule, as the
females of these Anthropoide have usually but one.

J. E. Gray, Catalogue of Monkeys, Lemurs and Fruit-eating
Bats, in British Museum.
The species of CALLITHRIXx are divided by this Author into
several different genera. C. auriTa is placed in Hapale; C.
| JaccHUS as vulgaris, in Jacchus var. 1, 2; with ALBICOLLIS;
PENICILLATA ; LEUCOCEPHALA ; and leucogenys = LEONTOCEBUS
DEVILLII as varieties 3, 4, and 5, of vulgaris. C. PYGM#A is
placed in Cebuella; and melanura = ARGENTATA, in Mico. All
of which genera are unnecessary. In the Appendix to the
Catalogue, C. sericea, (= CALLITHRIX CHRYSOLEUCA) ; and C.
CHRYSOLEUCA are placed in the genus Micoella.
Schlegel, Muséum d’Histoire Naturelle des Pays-Bas, Simie.
The species of CALLITHRIX are here placed in the genus Hapale,
as was customary with many of the earlier Authors. Simia
ARGENTATA Linn., is kept distinct, because its habitat was
different from that of C. melanura = C. ARGENTATA, and it
could not be an albino because its eyes were black and not red!

GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES AND SUBSPECIES.
The majority of the species of this genus are natives of Brazil, one
only extending its range into Bolivia, and one inhabiting Colombia. C.
GOELDI has no ascertained locality, as the unique type was brought alive
to the City of Para, and it was not known whether it was captured in
the vicinity or taken farther to the westward on the Amazon, or on
one of its tributaries. At Santarem, at the mouth of the Rio Tapajos
C. SANTAREMENSIS was procured, but its range is quite unknown. C.
JACCHUs is stated to have been obtained on the Island of Marajo, lying
between the mouths of the Amazon and the Rio Para. In the vicinity
of Bahia C. ALBICOLLIs has been obtained, and south of the Bay Todos
os Santos, C. HUMERALIFER occurs. C. PENICILLATA ranges from, and
including the Province of Goyas, through that of Minas Gerees, and in
Espirito Santo on the east coast, between 14 and 17 degrees South
Latitude; and C. p. jordani is found in the south west portion of
Minas Geres.
In the last named Province C. LEUCOCEPHALA occurs, ranging into
the Province of Espirito Santo; and in Matto Grosso C. ARGENTATA is
found. This species is also met with in Bolivia, and a specimen ac-
cording to I. Geoffroy is in the Paris Museum brought from Para by
Castelnau and Deville. On the banks of the Upper Parana to the
Province of Sao Paulo, C. aurita occurs, while in the last named
Province at Engenhiero Reeve C. FLAVICEPS was procured. At Booba
on the Lower Rio Madeira C. cHRYSOLEUCA was obtained; and in the
forests along the Rio Solimoens and Rio Ucayali, C. pyem#a dwells,
and lastly at Medellin in the Province of Antigua, C. LEUCOPUS was
found.

The presumable type of C. melanura in the Paris Museum is so
faded that it would be useless to attempt a description from it, the
various shades of brown having practically become one, the legs alone
being somewhat darker than the back, grading into the blackish brown
of the feet.

CALLITHRIX 223
There are several specimens of this species in the British Museum,
but none of them was selected by its describer as the type, a most
unfortunate omission. It was from one of these, No. 75. 6.3.1. that the
above description was taken, and this might serve hereafter as THE
TYPE.

The type of M. sericeus Gray, in the British Museum cannot be
separated from C. cHrysoLEucA. There was no skull of the species in
the Vienna Museum of the four examples in the collection, and the
measurements given above were taken from the type of M. sericeus
Gray.
This is a peculiar little animal, giving, at first, the impression that
it must be a partial albino, but all the specimens agree in their coloring,
and it is a very pretty species.

GOELDI’S MARMOSET.
Type locality. Para, Brazil. Brought alive to the city. Type in
British Museum.
Genl. Char. Hair on back and shoulders long, silky, projecting
beyond ears.
Color. Head, limbs and upper parts blackish brown, the hairs
at base are broccoli brown graduating into black, and tipped with pale
_ brown; white tufts exist on head in front of ears, and on either side
of the back at the loins, and there are white hairs scattered about the
forehead ; feet, hands, under parts and tail black, with light tips show-
ing on some of the hairs in the tail. Ex type British Museum.
No skull to the specimen.
The specimen is in poor condition and misshapen, so that it would
be impossible to give correct measurements. The skin of the hands and
feet has been filled with some material and is stretched, making these
members appear unusually broad, and the skin of the body has been
shortened in making up. There is no species of the genus known to me
to which this specimen can be assigned, but as the animal had been in
captivity, and possibly, as suggested by Mr. Thomas, had been injured,
this accounts for the white hairs on different parts of the head and
body. We must wait for additional examples to enable us to decide
what shall be its proper place in the genus.

legs, and under parts of body golden yellow; hands and feet dark
brown; tail black, indistinctly barred with buff, becoming more buff
than black towards tip. Ex type Berlin Museum.

This species resembles somewhat C. CHRYSOLEUCA, and one might
almost think, as Herr Matschie says, that that species was an albino of
the present one.

Humboldt’s volume which contains his “Tableau Synoptique des Singes de

Humboldt cites Geoffroy as the Author of the Species, the date must be an
error, which is corrected by I. Geoffroy in his “Catalogue des Primates,” 1851,
p. vii, in the “Liste des Ouvrages, &c.,” where he gives it as 1815, four years
after the publication of E. Geoffroy’s contribution.

The type of this form is no longer in the Paris Museum. There
are several specimens, however, in the collection, the earliest of which
bears date 1822, ten years after Geoffroy described the species. In all
the examples, the name penicillatus is attributed to Kuhl, who gave
the species in his Beitrage Zoologie eight years after Geoffroy had
described it.
CALLITHRIX PENICILLATA JORDANI Thomas.
Callithrix penicillata jordani Thos., Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., XIV,
7th Ser., 1904, p. 188.
Type locality. Rio Jordao, S. W. Minas Geres, Brazil. Type in
British Museum.
Genl. Char. Like C. PENICILLATA, but width of the middle upper
incisor about one half the length, instead of two thirds as in the other
species, and it is also longer and narrower.
Color. Face mars brown; spot on forehead and short hairs on
lips white ; top of head brownish black; nape, neck, and ear tufts black;
the hair on back of head very long; general color of upper parts gray,
banded with black, this being caused by the subterminal black band on
the hairs showing alternately with the gray tips; none of the ochra-
ceous color of the hairs showing, as it so conspicuously does in the
other species ; arms and legs ochraceous buff washed with gray; throat
pale brown; upper part of chest, and a line in center of abdomen
ochraceous washed with gray; inner side of arms, elbow to wrist black;
above elbow ochraceous buff and gray; inner side of legs pale clay color,
with a black spot near the body; hands and feet mixed black and
orange; tail ringed with black and white. Ex type British Museum.
Measurements. Total length, 533; tail, 298; foot, 58; ear, 20.
Skull: occipito-nasal length, 42; Hensel, 30; intertemporal width, 21;
palatal length, 13; zygomatic width, 28; breadth of braincase, 25;
median length of nasals, 8; length of upper molar series, 9; length of
mandible, 27.5; length of lower molar series, 9. Ex type in British
Museum.
This subspecies is not so gray as C, PENICILLATA, but darker and
browner ; the band above the slate colored base of the hairs is tawny
and not ochraceous, and this causes the general darker hue of the
animal; the under parts are much lighter, and more yellowish brown
on sides of abdomen and inner side of thighs.

GQAETATT HERSIEX 229
Bates, (1. c.) states that while walking about the streets of Para
he counted thirteen different species of monkeys, and, of these, two he
never met again in any part of the country. One of these was Hapale
yaccHus. “It was seated on the shoulder of a young mulatto girl, as
she was walking along the street, and I was told had been captured in
the island of Marajo.” ‘This appears to be about the only identified
locality in which this species is found, for previous authors, as a rule,
in giving the range of C. yaccHus have so confounded several species
together, as to make it practically impossible to designate the geo-
graphical limits of this long and well known species; and of its
range in Brazil but little is known even at this late day.

part of back, shoulders, arms, hands and under parts, soiled white; rest
of upper parts blackish brown, the hairs being white with blackish

mottled appearance; hind limbs and feet blackish brown; tail, black
and gray mixed, the hairs being gray ringed with black. Ex type
Paris Museum.
Measurements. Size about as C. yaccHus. Skull in mounted type
specimen.
It is most likely the fact that the bare head and throat of the type
is caused by the hairs having slipped, as scattered ones still are to be
seen, rather than that these naked parts are natural. The scattered
colored places on the head, and the whiteness of the hairs on the upper
part of the body, and the white mottling of the back and rump would
seem to be more a condition of partial albinism of C. JAccHus than
characters indicating a distinct species. However, it is impossible to
establish this as a fact, and until more proofs are obtained in other
specimens, duplicating the type, or examples of C. JAccHUS in various
albinistic stages, the present specimen will have to remain under the
name given to it by Geoffroy.
Bates (1. c.) gives the following account of this species as observed
by him at Santarem: “I saw in the woods on one occasion, a small
flock of monkeys, and once had an opportunity of watching the move-
ments of a sloth. The monkeys belonged to a very pretty and rare
species, a kind of Marmoset, I think the Hapale HUMERALIFER de-
scribed by Geoffroy St. Hilaire. I did not succeed in obtaining a
specimen, but saw a living example afterwards in the possession of a
shop keeper at Santarem. It seems to occur nowhere else except in the
dry woods bordering the campos in the interior parts of Brazil.
Altogether I thought it the prettiest species of its family I had yet
seen. One would mistake it at first sight for a kitten, from its small
size, varied colors and the softness of its fur. It was a most timid
creature, screaming and biting when any one attempted to handle it; it
became familiar, however, with the people of the house a few days after
it came into their possession. When hungry or uneasy it uttered a
weak querulous cry, a shrill note, which was sometimes prolonged so as
to resemble the stridulation of a grasshopper.”

size small.
Color. Top of head reddish brown; long ear tufts grayish white;
sides and back of head and neck yellowish white; upper parts mottled
with black and ochraceous, hairs tipped with white; outer side of limbs
brownish black, hairs gray tipped; throat and fore part of breast
grayish white; under parts, hands and feet blackish brown; tail brown-
ish black, indistinctly ringed with gray. Ex type Munich Museum.
The throat and fore part of chest appear yellowish, but this is merely the
reflection of the skin, the hairs being grayish white. The skull is in
the specimen.
Color. Ex specimen British Museum. Upper lip and spot on fore-
head white; head in front of ears, Prout’s brown; center of head, and
nape yellowish white, sometimes grayish white; ear tufts white; back
very similar to that of C. LEUCOCEPHALA, the hairs ochraceous with
a subterminal black bar and white tips; arms blackish brown, hairs
tipped with yellowish; legs yellowish brown; under parts pale brown
on throat and a band across chest and inner side of legs, rest blackish
brown; tail ringed black and gray, or black and yellowish; hands and
feet dark brown washed with gray.
Measurements. ‘Total length, 494; tail, 296; foot, 59; ear, 24,

The difference between this form and C. LEUCOCEPHALA is mainly
in the coloring of the nape and ear tufts, which are yellowish white in
C. ALBICOLLIs and black in its relative; the rest of the pelage is colored
almost exactly the same.

Color. Top of head dark brown, hairs pale yellow tipped with
dark brown; hairs on back black at base, then yellowish white, then
black, giving this part a mottled appearance; limbs blackish brown and
yellow ; under parts yellowish. Ex type Munich Museum.
The type is in bad condition, and a correct description of its pelage
as it was when the animal was living is impossible, as the fur is dis-
colored and the hair is mostly gone from the tail. The skull is in the
skin, and judging from the teeth, which are exposed, the animal is fully
adult, although so small in size.
Color. Adult. Head, neck and back between shoulders speckled
dark brown and gray, or dark brown and clay color; back black mottled
with buff; gray on rump; outer side of arms like head; outer side of
legs like back; throat and upper part of breast yellowish brown; ab-
domen gray, inner side of legs yellowish brown; hands and feet yellow-
ish; tail above banded with black and tawny, beneath tawny for basal
two thirds, banded with black and tawny for remainder.

The Titi Monkeys, as the members of this genus are usually called,
are active creatures, but less lively than the Sapajou or Capuchins, and
Bates says that C. MoLocH is a dull, listless animal. But according to
his own account, it is agile enough in the trees. Their food consists of
fruits, insects, birds’ eggs, and small birds whenever they succeed in
capturing one. Their range is extensive, comprising the greater part of
Brazil, and they are also natives of Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and
Bolivia.

GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES.
Brazil is evidently the home of the members of this genus and
they have a wide distribution over its territory, with representatives on
the west in Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia. In the north on
the right bank of the Orinoco near the Mission of Santa Barbara, C.
TORQUATUS is found and its range is extended in the forests watered
by the Rios Cassiquiare, Guaviare, Negro and Solimoens, going, accord-
ing to Tschudi, (1. c.) in southeastern Peru as far as Latitude 12°. On
the Upper Amazon in the forests of Olivenca near the Rio Solimoens
and thence to Peru (Tschudi), its near relative C. amicTus occurs. At
238 CALLICEBUS
Urucurituba, Santarem, on the Lower Amazon, C. HOFFMANNSI was
procured, and from near the last mentioned town, C. REMULUS was
obtained, and from Para C. EMILI@ was received. On the east coast
from the Rio St. Mattheus to Sertem de Bahia C. MELANOCHIR is met
with; and on the banks of the Rio Para near the mouth of the Rio
Tapajos, and also according to Schlegel (1. c.) at Aveyros on the Lower
Amazon, C. MoLocH dwells. Near Ilhéos south of Bahia C. cicor has
been procured, and this species goes as far to the south as New Frei-
bourg (Schlegel), between the Rio Parahyba and the mountains to the
north of the Bay of Rio de Janeiro. Near the last named city extend-
ing northward to the banks of the Rio St. Mattheus (Wied), and on
the Rio Doce C. PERSONATUS ranges, and according to Tschudi, (1. c.)
it is also found in Peru between 12° and 14° South Latitude. In the
Provinces of Minas Gerzs and Rio de Janeiro C. NIGRIFRONS ranges.
The most southern locality for any member of the genus is Chaco in
Paraguay, where C. PALLESCENS has been taken. On the middle
Amazon near Teffé or Ega, C. EGERIA occurs; while at the Falls of
Bonaneira, Rio Marmoré, C. BRUNNEUS was procured; and near Borba
on the Rio Madeira, C. cALIGATUS was obtained. On the Rio Solimoens
and thence into Peru in the forests of the Rio Ucayali and Rio Huallaga,
also on the Rio Copataza, and at Andoas in Ecuador, C. cuPREUS
occurs, and on the banks of the Rio Potomaico, on the borders of
Peru, C. CINERASCENS was procured. From some unknown locality,
supposedly in Brazil, C. ustoruscus came. In Colombia near Bogota
C. ORNATUS was met with. At Andoas, on the Rio Pastasa in Ecuador,
C. PHNULATUS occurs, and also in the same State its locality unknown,
C. LEUCOMETOPA was obtained. Finally in Peru, at Pachite on the
Rio Ucayali, C. suBruFus occurs, and in the Province of Sara, Central
Bolivia, C. DONACOPHILUS is found. As may be seen from the above
recapitulation, the entire range of a number of species is not yet known,
and doubtless, in numerous instances, they are considerably greater
than those given.

WHITE-CRESTED TITI MONKEY.
Type locality. Forest of Olivenga near Solimoens River, Brazil.
Geogr. Distr. Upper Amazon region, Brazil.
Genl. Char. Similar to C. Torguatus, but differs in having under
parts black instead of red.
Color. Face bare; white hairs on cheeks and on under lip; head,
whiskers and throat, arms, legs, feet, tail and under parts of body
black; upper part of chest extending upward to ears in a half collar,
and hands white.
Measurements. Total length, 863; tail, 482; foot, 76.2. Ex speci-
men in Paris Museum procured from Frank of Amsterdam in 1849.
It is marked “type” on the label, but of course it is not E. Geoffroy’s
type. No skull.
This species has frequently been considered the same as C.
TORQUATUS, but the black under parts of the body will always cause
it to be easily distinguished from its relative. It appears to be rare
in collections.
CaLLIcEBUS ustoFUscuUS Elliot.
Callicebus ustofuscus Elliot, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., XX, 1907, 7th
Sen, piss.
Type locality. Brazil. Type in British Museum.
Genl. Char. Allied to C. cuprEus, but color much darker. Skull
has the teeth much larger; palate longer and narrower; braincase
wider; space between pterygoid processes and bullae, and the width
of basioccipital throughout its length, greater. Practically the skull
is larger and more massive in every way. Mandible much larger and
heavier, and the depth of the ramus very much greater.
242 CALRELNGEBUS
Color. The general appearance of this animal shows a burnt
umber color, the hairs having a slaty base and then annulated with
two slate and two clay color bands, and a dark tip. Face naked,
black; top of head mixed dark ochraceous rufous and black, the black
predominating on the forehead; the rump is redder than the back
being somewhat of a burnt sienna color; outer side of limbs, hands
and feet, very dark claret brown; sides of head, throat, inner side of
limbs and under parts maroon; tail for one third the basal length
black, the hairs being chestnut with broad black tips; rest of tail mixed
black and yellowish gray or very pale clay color, the under parts of the
tail being almost altogether of this color; ears black. Ex type British
Museum.
Measurements. Size about the same as C. cupreus. Skull: occip-
ital region has been cut off. Intertemporal width, 32; zygomatic width,
41; palatal length, 21; width between last molars, 12; breadth of brain-
case, 35; median length of nasals, 9; length of upper molar series, 14;
length of first upper molar, 5; length of mandible, 42; extreme height
of mandible, 35; length of lower molar series, 17.5. Ex type British
Museum.
This species is nearest to C. CUPREUS but is altogether different in
color, being darker in all its hues. The skulls also are not at all in
accord, the differences mentioned being very conspicuous when a com-
parison is made. The unique example is in the British Museum
Collection, and all that is recorded of its history is that it came from
Brazil, collected by Castelnau.

RED TITI MONKEY.
Type locality. Banks of the Solimoens River, Brazil. Type in
Munich Museum.
Geogr. Distr. Regions of the Peruvian Amazons; Solimoens,
Ucayali, Huallaga and Copataza rivers; and Andoas, Ecuador.
Color. Face black; top of head gray, becoming orange rufous on
occiput, or buff-yellow on forehead grading into ferruginous on occi-
put, these colors due solely to the tips of the hairs which are black
on the basal portion; upper parts reddish brown and black, the former
being the tips of the hairs, producing an annulated appearance; sides
of head, limbs, hands, feet, and under parts coppery red; tail mixed
grayish white and black, the basal portion like the back; hairs on
ears coppery red. Ex type Munich Museum.
Measurements. Total length, 900; tail, 290; foot, 85; ex Spix’s
type. Skull: occipito-nasal length, 56; zygomatic width, 39; inter-
temporal width, 36; palatal length, 18; width of braincase, 34; median
length of nasals, 6; length of upper molar series, 14; length of man-
dible, 38; length of lower molar series, 15. Ex specimen Brit. Mus.
There is some variation among individuals of this species, and
some have the upper parts a uniform Vandyke brown, palest on the
center of the back, without the annulations so characteristic of the
typical style; the tail also is mixed ochraceous buff and black with a
buffy tip, the rest of the pelage however, being coppery red as in the
others.
Specimen in Paris Museum marked CALLitHRIx piscotor I.
Geoff. et Deville, type, cannot be separated from the present species.
It is somewhat faded in the lighter colors, but otherwise resembles
C. cupreus. There are several examples in the Munich Museum
obtained by Spix and all marked ‘Type.’ From one of these my
description was taken.
Mr. E. Bartlett, (1. c.) says that this Monkey is equally dis-
tributed, but not so numerous as SAIMIRI uSTUS, in fact it may be
regarded as rather rare, that is in eastern Peru. He procured it at
Cashiboya on the Ucayali and at Santa Cruz on the Huallaga.

Color. Top of head from forehead to between ears blackish
maroon ; face black ; the upper parts are reddish brown like C. cuPREUS
annulated with black darkest on dorsal line; limbs and under parts
coppery red; hands and feet black with numerous yellow hairs mixed;
tail black at base, grayish white for the rest of its length; a second
specimen has the tail black for basal third, then mixed gray and black,
and tip grayish white. Hairs on ears black.

This species has been usually attributed to the Prince of Wied,
and Kuhl himself attaches the Prince’s name to the one he gives the |
species. But the ‘Beitrage’ in which the Prince’s description is found, i
was published six years after Kuhl’s work appeared, and even if he |
took a MS. name given by the Prince to the species, it would stand |
as Kuhl’s who first described it in 1820.

Type locality. Pachite, Ucayali River, Peru. Altitude between
400 and 500 feet. Type in British Museum.
Genl. Char. Allied to C. LEUcoMETOPA, but color entirely different.
Color. Face black; a narrow black bar on forehead above eyes,
succeeded by a broader white one; rest of head on top, neck and entire
upper parts bright russet, becoming darker and more reddish on the
rump, the hairs being slate at base, then alternately ringed with slate
and bright russet, or on the rump with slate and dark russet or
reddish ; arms to elbows, and thighs to knees, rest of outer side of limbs,
hands and feet bright chestnut red; side of face, whiskers, inner side
of limbs, throat, chest, and middle of abdomen bright chestnut red;
fingers and toes yellowish gray; tail, basal third black, with chestnut
hair mixed with black at the root, remainder light gray above, nearly
whitish beneath; hairs on ears white. Ex type British Museum.
Measurements. Size about equal to that of C. LEUCOMETOPA.
Skull: occipito-nasal length, 51; Hensel, 40; zygomatic width, 35;

While allied to C. LEUcoMEToPA the great difference the present
animal exhibits in its coloration makes it easily recognizable. In its
gray fingers and toes it shows a leaning towards C. orNATUS, but in
other respects it has no resemblance to that species. The unique
example in the Collection of the British Museum is fully adult, but
not old.

British Museum.
Genl. Char. Similar to C. HOFFMANNsI but under parts rufous.
Color. Forehead yellowish white; top of head gray; nape and
dorsal region like C. HOFFMANNSI, being dark rufous, the black hairs
being ringed and tipped with that color; sides of body grizzled grayish
brown; outer sides of limbs grayish brown grizzled, but paler than
the flanks; under side of limbs and under parts rufous, this color
showing on side of legs from above; hands and feet grayish white;
whiskers pale rufous, base of hairs yellowish; tail black, the hairs
yellowish at base; root of tail rufous; ears black sparsely covered with
gray hairs. Ex type British Museum.
‘Measurements. Total length, 705; tail, 420; foot, 82. Skull:

series, 14.3; length of mandible, 39; length of lower molar series, 25.5.
Ex type British Museum.
The type which represents the species in the British Museum Col-
lection is a young adult with the teeth entirely unworn. In various
respects it resembles C. HOFFMANNSI and it comes from the same place,
Santarem, but the gray hands and feet, and rufous under parts easily
distinguish it. It is desirable to have more specimens so as definitely
to determine whether two species of this genus really are found in
practically the same locality, or whether age and sex may not account
for the different coloring in the types of C. REMULUs and C. HOFF-
MANNSI.
The type of the present species is much smaller than that of
C. HOFFMANNSI as would be expected considering the difference of age.

The specimen from which D’Orbigny’s figure was taken is in the
Paris Museum, and marked “type de la figure.” It is greatly faded,
-but still in the main corresponds to the description given above from
fresh examples in the British Museum, obtained in practically the
same locality from which D’Orbigny’s type came. The real type of
C. DONACOPHILUS cannot be identified, as all the examples are marked
as ‘types’ and there is no way of ascertaining which was the one origi-
nally described.

At Aveyros on the Amazon, Bates (1. c.) met with this species,
the only monkey in that locality, and which was called by the Indians
Thacapu-sai. Although allied to the Cebi he found that it possessed
none of their restless activity, but was dull and listless. It goes in
small flocks of five or six individuals, and runs along the main boughs
of the trees. He obtained an individual one morning at sunrise on a
low fruit tree behind his house, the only instance in his experience of
one being captured in such a situation, for it must have descended to
the ground and walked some distance to reach it. Though kept as a
pet by the natives, it is not very amusing and does not live long in
captivity.

THE REED TITI MONKEY.
Type locality. Forest of the Potomaio and Ica rivers, on the
borders of Peru. Type in Munich Museum.
Color. Hairs on forehead yellowish white at base, then black,
and tips grayish white; back of neck yellowish; upper parts of body
rufous, becoming blackish on rump; cheeks and chin white with a
grayish subterminal black ring; limbs brown, hairs tipped with grayish
white, and with a subterminal black ring; under parts of body grayish
white; hands and feet similar to limbs, but darker almost black, the
hairs tipped with gray; tail brownish black, tip reddish, the hairs,
except those of the tip, being yellowish white at base, remainder black.
Measurements. Total length, 865; tail, 465; foot, 90. Ex type
Munich Museum. There was no skull.
The above description was taken from the specimen labelled as
Spix’s type in the Munich Museum. As will be noticed it bears no
resemblance whatever to the figure on plate XIV of Spix’s work, and is
generally quite different from his description, at the same time it is
not like any of the described species of the genus. In general appear-
ance it is a reddish brown animal with nearly all the hairs tipped with
grayish white, and most of them with a subterminal black ring.
’ The tail appears black with a red tip. I have never seen a gray or
ashy CALLicEBus like Spix’s figure, and doubt if one exists in any
collection. If the present example in the Munich Museum is really the
type of C. CINERASCENS the general idea of its appearance will have
to be changed from Spix’s figure of an ashy gray animal, to a reddish
brown one speckled with grayish white. If Spix’s draughtsman
intended to represent the present type by the figure on plate XIV, he
made a grievous failure. The type specimen is unique. Spix’s descrip-
tion is as follows: “Ce singe a presque le taille du Saimiri. Son occi-
put et le dos sont d’un gris rougisseant, l’avant front, les quatres pieds et
le dessous du corps d’un gris de souris, et la queue noiratre. La téte
est trés allongée, la face aigue, brunatre, nue sur les sourcils et sur le
nez, et du reste vétue de petits poils cendrés, entremélés de quelques
poils roides noirs; des poils plus longs, cendrés, rayonnent autour
Vextérieur de la face presque jusqu’a la gorge; les poils du corps ne
sont pas si longs comme chez les autres espéces de ce genre. Les
oreilles sont un peu tronquées, nues en dedans, et tres pelues en déhors.
Les mains et les pattes porte la méme couleur que la reste des pieds;
les dents et les ongles ont presque la méme forme que ceux de la précé-
dente espéce, (C. amictus). J’ai trouvé ce singe dans les fdrets de la
riviere Potomaio ou Ica aux frontiéres du Pérou.”

Geogr. Distr. From Province of Minas Geres to that of Rio
de Janeiro, where the species meets with C. PERSONATUS.
Genl. Char. Forehead and stripe to ears black, but in some
examples the stripe is wanting; throat grayish, not black.
Color. Face naked, black; forehead with a black stripe to ears;
hands black; feet reddish brown, toes black; top of head and neck
buff, hairs with a subterminal black ring; hairs on upper parts of body
pale orange ochraceous with a subterminal black ring; forearms black,
the pale orange rufous of base of hairs showing through; arms from
shoulders to elbows like back; hinder parts and inner side of limbs
buff; tail tawny, hairs blackish towards tips. Ex type Munich
Museum.
Measurements. Total length, 960; tail, 455; foot, 100. Ex type
Munich Museum.
The above description taken from Spix’s type will hardly answer
for the figure on Spix’s plate, which does not represent the species, nor
agree with his description. The various descriptions in Spix’s volume,
should have the chief attention, and species be determined by them, for
not a few of his figures are quite unlike the types, (making all allow-
ance for the lapse of time and possible discoloration of the specimens),
and would certainly mislead an investigator trying to determine his
material. There is a certain amount of variation in coloring existing
among examples of this species, and some do not have the black stripe
on forehead to reach the ears, and the apical half of the tail is much
lighter, being at times cream buff.

females obtained by Natterer. It is a strongly marked species not to
be confounded with any other. Unfortunately there is no skull. The
general appearance is that of a reddish animal with a yellowish brown
back and black forehead. There is no difference in color between
the sexes.

Head pyramidal; body thick, heavy; face naked; chin bearded;
tail long, prehensile, naked at tip; thumb opposable. Skull: braincase
depressed; occipital region truncate; angle of mandible enormously
developed ; lower incisors vertical ; canines rather strong; claws convex,
powerful ; hyoid greatly inflated.
This subfamily has but one genus, embracing the largest species of
monkeys found in the New World. Their body is thick-set and heavy,
the mandible at the angle is very deep and massive, the throat is large
and thick, and the larynx extraordinarily developed. The basihyal is
greatly enlarged, and is expanded into a bony capsule which is lined
by a continuation of the thyroid sac, and so the animal is able, by
means of this peculiar formation, to produce the great volume of sound
for which it is noted, and from which the trivial name of Howling
Monkey is derived. The tone is deep and far reaching, resounding
through the forest for an estimated distance of three miles. The tail
is long and prehensile, but partially naked, and while of considerable
advantage to the animal for grasping, does not attain the sensibility
and extreme mobility of the. same organs of the species of ATELEUs,
whose tails are equal in their service to a fifth hand. The thumb of
the Howling Monkey is well developed and opposable. The face is
naked, and a heavy beard hangs beneath the chin, especially thick in
old males. Their movements are slow and their tempers sullen, and
the animal is practically untamable and soon dies when held in cap-
tivity. Their intelligence is of a very low order, and altogether the
animals of this genus are among the least attractive of the Primates.

The majority of the species are black or partly so, although six are
clothed in fur exhibiting shades varying from straw color to dark red.
In some species the sexes are alike in color, in others quite different,
and the young of some resemble their parents, while those of others
are totally unlike the adults, and they can therefore be arranged in two
groups. The fur is short on the bodies of some species, quite long on
others, but is usually thickest on the head.
Wallace (1. c.) writing of the Howling Monkeys, under the genus
Mycetes, on the Lower Amazon, states that they are generally abun-
dant; the different species, however, are found in separate localities,
(M.) BEELZEBUL being confined apparently to the Lower Amazon in
the vicinity of Para; a black species, (M.) caraya to the Upper
Amazon, and a red species, (M.) urstna to the Rio Negro and Upper
Amazon. Much confusion seems to exist with regard to the species
of Howlers, owing to the difference of color in the sexes of some
species. The red and black species of the Amazon, however, are of the
same color in both sexes. These animals are semi-nocturnal in their
habits, uttering their cries late in the evening and before sunrise, and
also on the approach of rain. Humboldt observes that the tremendous
noise they make can only be accounted for by the great number of
individuals that unite in its production. His own observations, and the
unanimous testimony of the Indians, prove this not to be the case. One
individual only makes the howling, which is certainly of a remarkable
depth and volume and curiously modulated, but on closely remarking
the suddenness with which it ceases and again commences, it is evi-
dent that it is produced by one animal, which is generally a full grown
male. On dissecting the throat, much of our wonder ceases, for
besides the bony vessel formed by the expansion of the “Os hyoides,”
there is a strong muscular apparatus which seems to act as a bellows in
forcing a body of air through the reverberating bony cavity.

GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES AND SUBSPECIES.
The members of the genus ALouatra are found from the State
of Vera Cruz, Mexico, on the north, through Central America and the
Island of Coiba to the Province of Corrientes, Brazil, on the south, and
westward to Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia..
Our knowledge of the ranges of the Brazilian species of this
genus is only partial, as it is also of the other Primates inhabiting that
Republic, for in the interior of that great country there are thousands
of miles of mountains and forests where no white man has ever pene-
trated, and whose faunz are quite unknown. Also, when Collectors
have failed to bring specimens back with them, it is at times impossible
to determine what are the species they refer to in their publications,
and errors of distribution can therefore easily be made. In Brazil, in
the interior, we have practically no knowledge of the animals which
inhabit the dense forests at any considerable distance from the rivers,
for explorers have penetrated, in most instances, but a few miles from
their banks, and how far a known species may range is, in many cases,
quite impossible to state. Therefore in giving the range of most of
the South American species of Primates, we are restricted to the
places where they have been obtained, or seen by reliable and com-
petent observers.
To begin at the most northern point where a species of ALOUATTA
dwells, we find, in the eastern portion of the State of Vera Cruz,
Mexico, A. palliata mexicana, the only species of the genus inhabiting
that Republic. In Guatemala, Central America, A. vILLosus occurs,
extending its range into Honduras; while in Nicaragua we have A.
PALLIATA, which is also an inhabitant of Costa Rica and Panama. On
264 ALOUATTA
Coiba Island, off the west coast of Panama, A. p. coibensis has been
procured. On the Island of Trinidad one species dwells, A. 1nsu-
LANUS; and in the British and French Guianas, and probably also in
Dutch Guiana, (though no examples from there were obtainable), to
the coast north of the Amazon, A. MACCONNELLI has been obtained.
In Venezuela in the forests of the Lower Orinoco, (Humboldt), and in
the maritime Provinces of Brazil from Bahia to Espirito Santo, A.
URSINA occurs, and also according to Tschudi, under the name of
Mycetes flavicaudatus it is found in Peru, in which case it must
necessarily inhabit the intervening portions of Brazil. From the
vicinity of Para, on the Rio Muria (Natterer), and between the Rio
Xinges and Island of Marajo, (Spix), on the Rio Araguay, (I. Geoff.),
and in the vicinity of Borba near the mouth of the Rio Madeira,
(Natterer), A. BEELZEBUL occurs. Bates states that the natives assert
there is a “yellow handed” monkey on the Island of Marajo, which
may be this species. On the Lower Amazon in Maranhao A. ULULATA
appears to have its range. Proceeding on in eastern Brazil, A. cARAYA
ranges from the Province of Bahia to that of Corrientes in Argentina ;
having been observed in the low forests of Bahia and Minas Gerzs
(Spix), in the Province of Goyas, (Castelnau), and on the Upper Rio
Paraguay, and near the town of Matto-Grosso (Natterer), and also at
the junction of the Rio Parana and Rio Paraguay, Argentina,
(Rengger). On the Rio Juara, a tributary of the Upper Amazon, A.
JUARA has been obtained. In Colombia, A. sENIcuLUs is found, and
according to Spix who obtained a specimen, it also occurs in the forest
between the Rio Negro and Rio Solimoens, his example having been
secured near the borders of Peru. In Ecuador at Vinces on the west
coast A, ZQUATORIALIS was procured; and finally, in Bolivia in the
Province of Sara, A. SARA occurs.

specimen in British Museum. The above descriptions were taken from
specimens loaned to me by my friend Guy Dollman, Esq., of the British
Museum, and received from Miritibi, Maranhao, Brazil. )
Examples of this monkey were received at the British Museum
representing both sexes and were supposed by Mr. Dollman to be the
long lost Mycetes discolor Spix, and were so described by him under
that name (1. c.). I have already remarked upon the dissimilarity
frequently existing between Spix’s descriptions and his types, and also
SSS XLT
268 ALOUATTA
between the latter and the colored figures, and the present seems to
be a striking case of this unfortunate state of affairs.
Spix’s description of discolor in several points leans more towards
this species than it does towards his type, which is a rather small young
adult black example with fingers, toes and tip of tail pale rusty red,
and is most probably a young example of A. BEELZEBUL while his
description and figure do not agree in several particulars, viz., “Les
quatre pieds sont presque entiérement d’un noir luisant, excepté les
doigts trés allongés, qui sont garnis de poils courts et roux,” while his
figure shows brown feet and blackish brown hands; and of the body he
says “le tronc rougeatre au milieu, et noir luisant aux cétés,’ which does
not describe any species of Alouatta known, and his figure exhibits an
animal with a blackish brown back and reddish flanks and shoulders;
while the type is black with only a very faint brownish tint on the
flanks. “La queue pas épaisse est noire * * * et rougisseante au
bout” which is correct of the type itself, but the figure has a black tail
for the entire length.
Spix’s figure more nearly represents a male A. BEELZEBUL with an
immature coat, retaining in some respects the colors more like the
female upon the flanks and under parts, though somewhat too red on
the flanks, but regarding it in all its coloring it is more nearly a figure
of a young adult male A. beelzebul which the type specimen itself
would seem to prove to be the fact, while Spix’s description cannot be
applied to any species of Howler known at the present time. I am
greatly indebted to my friend Mr. Dollman for the opportunity of
describing this distinct species.

Mr. Salvin has given in Sclater’s paper on this species, (1. c.), the
following account of it. “The Mycetes of Guatemala .is commonly
known as the ‘Mono.’ It is abundant throughout the virgin forests of
the eastern portion of the Republic, but is unknown in the forest clad
slopes which stretch towards the Pacific Ocean. In the former region
it is found at various altitudes over a wide expanse of country. I have
heard its cry on the shores of the Lake Yzabel, and all through the
denser forests of the valley of the river Polochie. It is very common,
from the steep mountain road which lies between the upland village
of Peruba and S. Miguel-Tucuru, and especially in the wilderness of
uninhabited forest which stretches from Teleman to the Lake Yzabel.
In the unbroken forest country which occupies the whole of the
northern portion of the Vera Paz, from Coban and Cahabon to the con-
fines of Peten, it is also abundant; for seldom an hour passes but the
discordant cry of the Mono strikes upon the ear of the traveller as he
threads the lonely path to Peten. The elevation of this district varies
from about 700 to 3,000 feet; and the Mycetes is found at all heights.
When travelling through this forest in 1862, I was dependent for the
animal food to supply my party of Indians entirely upon my gun; and
Monos contributed not a little to the larder. The Indians eat monkey
without demur ; but the meat looks dark and untempting. For my own
part I far preferred the delicate Tinamou or Curassow, a sufficient
supply of which never failed for my own consumption. Perhaps there
is no district in Vera Paz where Monos are more abundant than the
mountains of Chilasco, a cold and damp region, elevated at least
6,000 feet above the sea but where the forest growth is of the densest
description and trees of the largest size abound. It was here that
the specimens were obtained that are now in the British Museum. The
wonderful cry whence Mycetes gets its trivial name of Howling
Monkey is certainly most striking, and I have sometimes endeavored to
ascertain how far this cry may be heard. It has taken me an hour or
more to thread the forest undergrowth from the time the cry first
struck my ear, to, when, guided by the cry alone, I stood under the
trees where the animals were. It would certainly not be overestimating
the distance to say two miles. When the sound came over the lake of
Yzabel unhindered by trees, a league would be more like the distance
a Mono’s cry could be heard. These animals are found in companies
270 ALOUATTIA
of five or six. They are usually met with in the branches of the highest
trees, and when disturbed, crawl sluggishly along the boughs. The
young, as well as the females, are of the same dense black as the old
males, but the hair is shorter and not so glossy.”
In the article from which the above extract has been taken, Dr.
Sclater endeavors to prove that the black form of the northern and
the one from the southern part of South America are distinct, on
account of the different manner in which the hair on the forehead is
inclined forward or reversed. It is quite true that the southern and
northern Black Howlers are distinct, but the way in which the hair
lies on the forehead is not a character to be relied upon, but merely an
individual peculiarity exhibited by members of this genus. This is the
more misleading in the Howlers, for in other groups, notably ATELEUus,
the direction of the hair on the head is a character that is of consider-
able importance for the arrangement of the different species in their
proper position in the genus.

Bates states (1. c.) “in the neighborhood of Para a reddish colored .
species prevails, (M.) BEELZEBUL; in the narrow channels near Breves
I shot a large, entirely black kind; another yellow-handed species,
according to the report of the natives, inhabits the Island of Marajo,
which is probably the M. flavimanus of Kuhl”; (rufimanus is probably
intended = A. BEELZEBUL) ; “some distance up the Tapajos the only
howler found is a brownish black species.” The type of Mycetes dis-
color Spix, is in the Munich Museum. It is a rather small black animal
and may be an immature example of the present species or A. CARAYA,
but more probably of A. BEELZEBUL, as A. CARAYA has a more southern
habitat. Spix procured his specimen at Fort Carupa on the Amazon.

Ex type United States National Museum.
Measurements. Total length, 1,190; tail, 651; foot, 148. Skull:

The type is an extreme example, as there is an entire absence of
the jet black hue on the upper parts to be seen to a more or less con-
siderable extent in other specimens, some indeed having the upper parts
nearly all black with very little golden to be seen, these being the other
extreme.
A series of specimens of this subspecies from southern Vera Cruz
establishes the fact that it is a much duller colored animal than the one
from Central America, the flanks having none of the golden rufous
witnessed, for example, in specimens from Chiriqui.

Color. Male. Face black; head and body shining yellowish or

Santo specimen.
There are only six adult males, one immature male, one adult
female and two immature examples in the British Museum, that I can
satisfactorily determine to be this species. They were all collected with
two exceptions, by Robert, at Engenheiro Reeve, Espirito Santo, and
Roca Nova, Parana, Brazil, and one from Barri, Rio Negro, Collector
unknown. The adults from Espirito Santo resemble each other in
276 ALOUATTA
color, varying but slightly in the depth of the red; one male not pro-
cured by Robert was obtained at St. Catherines and agrees with the
others in color, and a young 2 from San Sebastian, Sao Paulo, was
obtained from A. Hempel. The skulls, however, do vary very much,
the differences when of the same sex, probably caused by age. Com-
paring the skulls of two adult males the shape of the braincase at once
attracts attention, where in one it is shorter and flatter above, with two
ridges starting from the center of the upper edge of the orbit, curving
towards the center of the skull, but keeping 20 mm. apart, and ter-
minating on the edge of the occipital on either side of the interparietal.
Another, with a longer braincase, has these ridges coalesce and form a
ridge or low crest down the center of the skull, broadening out in the
rear, and terminating at sides of interparietal. These two formations
so totally different occur in adult males from the same locality. These
skulls also exhibit differences which might possibly under other con-
ditions be taken as sufficient to cause a specific separation. The
premaxillaries in the longer skull extend forward beyond the canines,
coming to almost a point in the center, causing the alveolar border of
the outer pair of incisors to be lower than that of the middle pair, while
in the other skull the alveolar border of the incisors is perfectly straight,
causing the width between the canines to be much greater, nearly 4
mm. Other differences are also observable, such as in the width of the
pterygoid processes, the width of the basi-occipital, length of the ptery-
goid fossa, width and shape of the palatal arch, width and shape of the
occipital region, and the curve of the frontal and nasals, all these, with
others not mentioned, serve to show the great individual variation that
exists in the skulls of this species even among animals of the same sex,
and practically the same age, dwelling in the one locality. A larger
series would undoubtedly show greater diversities. The young of this
species are jet black, the golden brown appearing on the tips of the
hairs as they grow older, this gradually extending from the head to
the body and limbs, and growing more and more red until in the fully
adult the pelage assumes the appearance as described for the males
given above. Mr. Robert’s series from Roca Nova, Parana, exhibits
this change finely. This is the style that has been described as distinct
by Kuhl as Mycetes fuscus.
Alouatta (Simia) flavicauda was described by Humboldt (1. c.)
from the Province of Jaen. He did not see this Howler living, but
describes it from some skins procured by natives, and no specimens
answering to this description have ever been received by any Museum.
Its peculiarities are the extremely long hair on the body, and the color
ALOUATTA 277
of the tail “d’un noir olivatre et ornée latéralement de deux stries
jaunes.” A tail colored like that has not been seen thus far with a
species of Alouatta in any collection. Tschudi states (1. c.) that this
monkey is found in Peru in 11° Latitude, but I am not aware that
he sent any specimens to Europe. Kuhl states (1. c.) that a specimen
was in the Paris Museum, but this must have been a mistake. Geoffroy
does not mention it, and it is not there now.
I have placed Humboldt’s species among the synonyms of A.
ursina with a ?; and the doubt can only be settled satisfactorily by the
acquisition of specimens.

Color. Variations in color exist among individuals of this species
apparently quite independent of age, sex, or locality, the head, limbs
and tail varying from brownish and coppery red to a dark purplish
red, sometimes almost a blackish purplish red, and the tail from fer-

ALOUATTA 279
I have examined the series of specimens in the American Museum
of Natural History in New York, from Colombia, including the types
which Dr. Allen has separated from A. SENICULUS, as A. s. rubicunda
and A. s. caucensis, and am unable to find characters in my opinion
sufficient to cause them to be elevated to a distinct rank. In the table
of measurements given at the end of his paper, sixteen specimens of
A. s. rubicunda and eight, only half as many, of A. s. caucensis have
been selected. This has been done by Dr. Allen, not from his own
volition, but because he did not have sufficient material from the
Cauca Valley to enable him to equalize the two series in the number
of examples apportioned to each. These subspecies were established
upon cranial characters chiefly, although the color of the specimens
was not disregarded. As to the latter I find that Cauca Valley speci-
mens have practically perfect representatives from Bonda, Santa
Marta district, and Dr. Allen speaks of the “great local variation
abundantly shown by a fine series of nine specimens from the Upper
Cauca Valley collected at altitudes of from 3,000 to 6,000 feet” and
of the A. s. rubicunda he states, this large series (examples), “shows
a wide range of variations in color, which proves to be entirely inde-
pendent of sex or age and largely independent of season.” This agrees
with my own experience of A. SENICULUS with the large series of these
animals examined in the collections of the various European Museums,
More or less slight variations in depths of shades, seen in specimens
from the same or contiguous localities cannot therefore be relied upon
as a character for establishing a race for this species, and I have shown
in my remarks on the crania that the skulls, even of specimens from the
same locality, vary in an almost incredible degree. Dr. Allen in his
paper has given figures of the skulls of his two subspecies, which, if
taken by themselves would seem to show that he had ample grounds
for giving them distinctive rank, but on examining these crania, the
differences exhibited, either disappear or are shown not to be confined
exclusively to either form. At first sight of the figures exhibiting the
under side of the skull, one is struck by the curvature of the tooth
rows in the cranium of A. s. rubicunda, a feature not found in any
individual of the A. SENICULUS type. On examining this skull it was
seen that the last molar was abnormally placed, was out of its proper
position, the one on the left side, (right side of the figure), was situ-
ated farther inward than the corresponding tooth on the opposite side,
which was only slightly out of position, and this accounted for the
curvature seen in the figure. The other skulls from the same locality
had the tooth row perfectly straight as exhibited by the figure of the
280 ALOUATTA
Cauca Valley skull. In selecting his type Dr. Allen had quite over-
looked the abnormal position of these last molars. The other cranial
characters mentioned by Dr. Allen are mainly individual variations
which are readily perceived in any considerable series of skulls of this
species, but which, as I have already said, if judged by themselves
without ample material for comparison might be considered as having
specific or racial value. Any form, however, established upon these
variations would create confusion and prove a stumbling block to all
investigators.
In the table of measurements given by Dr. Allen in his paper, the
average of the Cauca Valley specimens, shows their skulls to be slightly
smaller, but if as many of them had been available as of the other series
from Santa Marta, sixteen instead of eight, the probability would be,
if the individuals were of a similar age, that the average would show
little if any difference between the crania from the two localities.
As Linnzus’ type came from Cartagena, these specimens from
Colombia would undoubtedly represent the typical style of the species.
The specimen named and figured by Spix as Mycetes stramineus
is in the Munich Museum. It is in poor condition, so changed by the
accumulation of nearly a century’s dust that its original color is indis-
tinguishable. It seems to have been of a general uniform color, now
pale straw yellow where a few spots of that color can be detected in
various parts. The limbs and tail would appear to have been about the
same color as the body; the beard and sides of face alone being a dark
brownish. Spix gives the locality of this example as the forest
between the Rio Negro and the Solimoens River near the boundaries
‘of Peru. There is only one specimen in the Museum. This forest also
extends on the eastern border of Colombia, and it is not improbable
that A. SENICULUs is found there, ranging also to the borders of Peru.
Bates, (1. c.) speaks of a Howler from the Madeira River, which
he attributes to the Mycetes stramineus Geoff., but which is possibly
the A. sENICULUS Humb., as follows: ‘The only interesting mam-
malian animal which I saw at Villa Nova was a monkey of a species
new to me; it was not however a native of the district, having been
brought by a trader from the river Madeira, a few miles above Borda.
It was a howler, probably the Mycetes stramineus Geoffroy St. Hilaire.
The howlers are the only kinds of Monkey which the natives have not
succeeded in taming. They are often caught but they do not survive
captivity many weeks. The one of which I am speaking was not quite
full grown. It measured sixteen inches in length, exclusive of the tail;
the whole body was covered with rather long and shining dingy
ALOUATTA 281
white (?) hair, the whiskers and beard only being of a tawny hue. It
was kept in a house, together with a Coaita and a Cairara monkey
(CEBUS ALBIFRONS). Both these lively members of the monkey order
seemed rather to court attention, but the Mycetes shrunk away when
any one approached. When it first arrived, it occasionally made a gruff,
subdued howling noise early in the morning. The deep volume of
sound in the voice of the howling monkeys, as is well known, is pro-
duced by a drum-shaped expansion in the larynx. It was curious to
watch the animal while venting its hollow cavernous roar, and observe
how small was the muscular exertion employed. When howlers are
seen in the forest there are generally three or four of them mounted on
the topmost branches of a tree. It does not appear that their harrow-
ing roar is emitted from sudden alarm; at least, it was not so in captive
individuals. It is probable, however, that the noise seems to intimidate
their enemies. I did not meet with the Mycetes stramineus in any
other part of the Amazonian region. * * * On the Upper Amazons
the sole species seen was the Mycetes ursinus whose fur is of a shining
yellowish red color.” This is doubtless M. sEnIcuLus.

This form differs from A. SENICULUS in not having the dark hue
on the upper part of the back, limbs, hands, feet and tail. The upper
parts and flanks in the adults are a rich golden hue from the nape to the
tail, and the under parts and limbs a beautiful orange red, quite different
from the typical style on the north western part of the continent.
Allen (1. c.) gives the following account of this species from Carriker’s
notes:
“The three specimens from northern Venezuela do not differ
appreciably in color or otherwise from four others from El Llagual
and Rio Mocho. There is a noteworthy sexual difference in color, the
males being much more intensely colored throughout than the females.
“Common on the Caura and on the Cuyuni, and in less numbers
most everywhere from sea level up to 4,000 feet (La Cumbre de Valen-
cia), where heavy forest is found. Its presence is always quickly
revealed in a locality by its tremendous roaring, which is really quite
awe-inspiring. They are sluggish, morose brutes, impossible to tame,
and are more often found in pairs or families than in troops. They will
sit curled up for hours in the top of some giant tree, and as long as
they believe themselves unseen, will not move, but even when dis-
turbed, never move with the speed or agility of Cebus or Ateles (!)
“T have found them to be much troubled with ‘screw worms,’
especially around the neck. Other species seem to be able to remove
them, as a rule. They are very tenacious of life, clinging to a branch
after being riddled with shot, and even after death, only dropping
after rigor mortis has passed and released the contracted muscles.
They invariably howl at the first break of day and usually before a
rain-storm. They are invariably very lean of body, being in that
respect different from the other species, which at times are found
exceedingly fat.”

TRINIDAD HOWLER.
Type locality. Island of Trinidad. Type in British Museum.
Genl. Char. Size small, color nearly uniform throughout, limbs
only slightly darker than the body.
Color; Head and whiskers maroon, darkest on chin and throat;

This red Howler in general appearance resembles somewhat the
form from the Juara River in the western portion of South America,
but is considerably smaller in size, has not so much of the golden color
of the body, and the limbs and tail are much paler, more the hue of the
body. It is even more entitled to the name of Red Howler than is the
A. JUARA.

The peculiarity of this species is its general red color, the bright
maroon of the head grading into the golden red of the body without
any marked line to separate the hues. Its general aspect is that of a
red monkey with dark limbs. The basal half of the tail is maroon,
darker than the head, more nearly the color of the thighs, the remainder
much lighter. Two specimens are in the British Museum procured on
the Rio Juara, Upper Amazon.

The above described example from Bolivia is a female, and there-
fore there can be no comparison between it and that of the one from
Guiana which is an old male. The coloring of the upper part of the
body in the two animals is not unlike when they are brought under the
same light, but beneath, along the flanks, the Bolivian animal has none
of the rich orange red characteristic of the eastern species, but is
yellowish red on this part.
Two examples from the Province of Sara are in the British
Museum, one of which is young.

Hair long, thick, divided by a central line on the head, and falling
down partly covering the face; thick beard on the chin; ears large; tail
long, thick, bushy, non-prehensile. Incisors of both jaws project
forwards, the inner pair larger than the outer which are very small;
canines long, conical; first premolar the smallest and with only one
cusp; molars with grooved crowns, and four cusps.
The members of this genus are peculiar in having the body usually
covered by long, coarse hairs. The tail, which is longer or as long
as the body, is also covered with a similar coarse hair, being in certain
species quite bushy. Another peculiarity is the thrust forward of the
incisors both of the upper and lower jaws. In the brain the cerebellum
and olfactory lobes are covered by the cerebrum, and the ribs are broad
and consist of twelve pairs except P. PITHECIA which has thirteen.
They are timid and very delicate creatures, usually surviving but
a brief period in captivity, and become much attached to whoever cares
for them.
These monkeys are found in the Guianas, the forests of the
Orinoco and its tributaries, and the valley of the Amazon, extending
their range westward into Ecuador and Peru. Eight species are here
recognized.

GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES.
On the northeastern corner of South America in French Guiana,
two species of this genus are found, one P. carILLIMENTOSA not having
been, as yet, procured elsewhere; the other P. pirHEcia with a wider
known range, being a resident of British Guiana for 300 miles into the
interior, (Sclater, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1866, p. 305) ; and Guiana
possesses two additional species, P. sSATANAS and P. CHIROPOTES, rang-
ing on the Upper Orinoco, Rio Tocantins and Rio Negro; the first
named having been obtained at Para; the latter also on the Rio Branco,
Brazil, and, according to Bates, it goes to Peru. On the Upper
Amazon near Ega on the Solimoens P. ALBICANS was procured, its
range unknown; and on the banks of the Rio Negro near Barra P.
CHRYSOCEPHALA occurs. At or near Santarem on the Lower Amazon
P. ALBINASA was found. The most extensive known range of any of
the species is that of P. MmonacHa, which occurs on both banks of the
Upper Amazon, on the Rio Negro, Rio Madeira and Rio Marmoré, in
the vicinity of Tabatinga on the Rio Solimoens, and into Peru, where
it has been procured on the Rio Javari and Rio Ucayali. The species
has also been obtained on the Rio Marona in Western Ecuador.

The type of Pithecia inusta Spix, is in the Munich Museum and
can in no way be separated from P. monacHa. It is a full grown
animal in good condition and came from the forests of the Tonantins,
an affluent of the Solimoens River, near Tabatinga.
Bates, writing about this monkey under the name of Paranacu
(1. c.) states that it is a timid, inoffensive creature, and is found on
the “terra firma” lands of the north shore of the Solimoens from
Tonantins to Peru. It is a very delicate animal rarely living in cap-
tivity for any length of time, but if one succeeds in keeping it alive for
any considerable period, it makes a very affectionate pet. While the
Cebi exceed all the American monkeys in intelligence, the Coaita,
(ATELEUS PANISCUS) has the most gentle and affectionate disposition,
but the Paranacu although a dull, cheerless animal exceeds all in its
capability of attachment to man. It is not lacking in intelligence, as
the following incident shows. A neighbor had gone out in the morn-
ing leaving his pet behind, and the monkey missing its friend decided
it would come to Mr. Bates as was its habit, and so the Paranacu took
a short cut over gardens, trees and thickets, as a neighbor saw it on its
way, and came directly to Mr. Bates’ dwelling. Not finding its master
there, it climbed on to a table and sat down, and with an air of quiet
resignation waited for him. Soon after its owner entered and his pet

Pithecia rufiventer (nec Geoff.), Wagn., Schreb., Saugth. Suppl.,
I, 1840, p. 222, (desc. nec Syn.).
Type locality. Cayenne. Type in Munich Museum.
Genl. Char. Hair very long and loose on hinder part of head, and
inclined to stand erect. Face covered with short hairs.
Color. Forepart of head and sides yellowish white, the hairs
being black at base with yellowish white tips; upper parts of body and
flanks clove brown, the long hairs falling over the shoulders, and on
arms above elbows tipped with yellowish white; forearms, hands and
feet jet black; throat, breast and abdomen buff, rest of under parts to
vent clove brown; tail very bushy, clove brown.
Measurements. Total length, 475; tail, 220; foot, 90. Skull in
specimen. Ex type Munich Museum.
The type is a young animal, perhaps half grown, and has gener-
ally been considered the same as PITHECIA PITHECIA (Linn.). It is,
however, much nearer P. MonacHa (Humboldt), but differs from that
species in its jet black hands and feet, and in having the buff on the
under parts extending to the lower part of the abdomen. Compared
with a young P. monacHA of about the same size and probably age,
it differs in the much longer hairs on the head and neck rising, as Spix
states, like a wig, (but not shown in his plate), in the much greater
extent of the buff color on the under parts, and strikingly in the totally
different color of the hands and feet, as there is no indication whatever
of the grayish or yellowish white hue which makes the hands and feet
of P. MONACHA so conspicuous a feature of that species. There seems
to be no alternative but to consider Spix’s type as representing a dis-
tinct form. Like so many of Spix’s figures, the one given of this type
does not represent the animal either in color or in the length and
peculiar disposition of the hairs. Spix did not collect this specimen, but
found it in the collection of the Munich Museum, and it was in the
register of 1816 as having come from Cayenne. This is on one of the
tickets now attached to the type. Of course this was before Spix made
his journey to Brazil. He does not say in his work what the locality
of his type was, but merely gives a description of the animal and a
figure.

WHITISH SAKI.
Type locality. Lake Teffé, near Ega, on the Solimoens River,
Brazil. Type in British Museum.
Geogr. Distr. Tonantins to Peru, on the Solimoens River, Brazil.
Genl. Char. Size large. Hair long and loose hanging down the
sides to knees and elbows; tail long, bushy; hair on back of head
leaning forward, forming a hood as in P. MONACHA.
Color. Face covered with short white hairs; head, shoulders,
sides of body, limbs, hands and feet whitish; back, upper part of sides
and tail black, the hairs with whitish tips; under parts russet; hands
and feet whitish or grayish. Ex type in British Museum.
Measurements. About the size of P. MONACHA.
The type and paratypes of this form described by Gray are in
the British Museum Collection, and seem entitled to be regarded as
distinct. They differ in color from all other Pithecie. The adult
does not agree with Gray’s description for the shoulders and arms
are not black, but whitish, the black of the back only covering the back
between the shoulders, and there is no black whatever on the arms.
The ‘whitish’ of Gray’s description has now become a pale, dirty,
yellowish brown, probably giving a very incorrect idea of the animal’s
appearance in life. The hairs on hands and feet are quite short, the long
hairs not going beyond the wrists and ankles. The long hair of the
head comes forward to the face as in P. MonacHA, but the texture is
quite different from the hair of that species, being not harsh and
straight but having an inclination to curl.
Bates, to whose book I have so often referred, says, (1. c.) that
this monkey is found on the banks of the Teffé south of the Solimoens.
An individual, since placed in the British Museum, was a pet of a
young Frenchman at Ega. It was so tame that it followed him like
a dog about the streets. Its owner was a tailor, and the monkey passed
most of the day on his shoulder while he was at work. It was not
friendly, however, to any other person.

Guiana ; and the region of the Rio Negro and Rio Branco, Brazil.
Genl. Char. Hair very long both on body and tail; sexes differ-
ently colored. ;
Color. Male. Head grayish white, becoming yellowish on sides
and tawny ochraceous about the lips and throat ; face naked, black, and
a narrow black naked line on the center of the head dividing the white
hairs; entire rest of pelage, body, limbs, hands, feet and tail black.
Female. Brownish black, hairs tipped with buff or buff yellow;
belly red.
Measurements. Total length about 750; tail, 400. Skull: occipito-
nasal length, 69; zygomatic width, 49; intertemporal width, 35; palatal
length, 33; breadth of braincase, 42; median length of nasals, 14;
length of upper molar series, 16; length of mandible, 48; length of

Gray (1. c.) refers his P. leucocephala to P. CHRYSOCEPHALA
Geoff., having never seen the type specimen and considers Geoffroy’s
P. leucocephala as distinct. In this he was mistaken, as both Gray’s
and Geoffroy’s leucocephala are the same, and not separable from P.
PITHECIA Linn. In the same paper, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1860, he
refers his P. irrorata correctly to P. MONACHA.
There are two specimens in the Paris Museum marked P. rufi-
venter but neither are marked “Type,” and the whereabouts of that
important example is unknown. The type of Pithecia pogonias Gray,
is in the British Museum. It is a female with the red belly, and in all
respects resembles the females of P. pirHEciA. A specimen in the
Paris Museum marked “Type” on the label, and on the bottom of the
stand, “Jeucocephalus G. St. H.” is probably Audebert’s type which is
exactly the same as S. PITHECIA Linn. It is.a male.

GOLDEN-HEADED SAKI.
Type locality. “Banks of the Amazon.” Type not in Paris
Museum.
Geogr. Distr. Near Barra, Rio Negro, (Natterer).
Genl. Char. Head ochraceous buff instead of white. Teeth large;
throat and chest bare, black. Lips covered with short white hairs. _
Color. Male. Head and sides of throat ochraceous buff, divided
by a black naked line on top of head; rest of pelage of body, limbs,
hands, feet and tail black.
Female. General color of head, upper parts, flanks, limbs, hands,
feet and tail brownish black, hairs tipped with buff. This color is very
prominent on the forehead, about ears and beneath eyes; under parts
and inner side of limbs orange buff. Several specimens are in the Vienna
Museum collected by Natterer at Paraguacu, Barra do Rio Negro.
Measurements. Total length about 670; tail, 340. Skull: occipito-
nasal length, 65; zygomatic width, 46; intertemporal width, 33; palatal
‘length, 23; breadth of braincase, 39; median length of nasals, 13;
length of upper molar series, 17; length of mandible, 42; length of
lower molar series, 20. Ex specimen from Rio Negro in British
Museum called Jeucocephala.
This species varies considerably both among adult individuals and
also at different ages ; the young being more or less reddish brown and
the females resembling young males, reddish brown hairs tipped with
buff in the color of their pelage, with a white band bordering the front
of the cheek.
Kuhl’s types of P. ochrocephalus and P. rufibarbata are both in
the Leyden Museum and both are immature. P. ochrocephalus has
begun to assume the black pelage on different parts of the body,
especially on the limbs, the hairs of which are tipped with ochraceous;
and the hairs around face and on front of head are buff, probably
faded, and much paler than the adult P. ochrocephalus. P. rufibarbata
is a very young animal about half grown and completely in the brown
pelage.

WHITE-NOSED SAKI.
Tvpe locality. Santarem, Lower Amazon. Type in Paris
Museum.
Color. Entire pelage, head, body, limbs, hands, feet and tail,
jet black; face around eyes and upper part of nose, black; lower part
of nose to tip, lips and chin covered with short white hairs.
Measurements. Total length, 665; tail, 310; foot, 120. No skull.
The type I should judge to be a half grown individual, for, as the
measurements show, it is very small. The skull being unfortunately
wanting, no estimate of its age can be given. The white of the nose,
lips and chin is very conspicuous.
The locality given above is written on the bottom of the stand.

Geogr. Distr. British Guiana; forests near Para, Lower Amazon;
banks of the Rio Orinoco, Rio Tocantins and Rio Negro, Brazil.
Genl. Char. Size moderate; fur soft; hair on crown in young
radiating from center and falling evenly around the head; in adult
divided by a central line; tail long, bushy ; whiskers long, and moderate
beard on chin.
Color. General color of pelage black, with the back washed with
brown; more so in the female than in the male; hands and feet black.
Female does not differ in color from the male but has a shorter beard.
Measurements. Total length, 863; tail, 406. Skull: occipito-nasal

I have examined the Chiropotes niger Gray, type in British

black,’ but has quite a brown back, and is probably not a young
individual, the hair on head radiating from the center.

gave the name fulvo-fusca to any species of monkey. It certainly is not
mentioned in the Mag. Ges. Nat. Freunde, Berl., X, 1807, where P. sATANAS is
described, nor in any other volume of the Magazine, and Dr. Trouessart must
have been misled in citing the name attributed to Hoffmannsegg. Had this
Author really called the species known as cHrRopotes, fulvo-fusca, the latter
appellation would have taken precedence.

Face short, sometimes highly colored; fur short, silky; tail very
short. Skull: parietal and malar bones in contact; mandible dilated
posteriorly, similar to that of the members of the genus ALOUATTA;
incisors oblique; diastema present between canines and incisors of the
upper jaw.
The three species comprising this genus are the only short-tailed
monkeys inhabiting the New World. The brevity of this organ is not
occasioned by the fact that fewer vertebre are present, but on account
of their small size. Two of -the species are remarkable for the
brilliant coloring of their faces, which are scarlet or vermilion-red, and
this hue becomes much deeper whenever an individual is excited.
The brain is well developed and complicated, very different from that
of the species of Saimiri. The lower jaw is peculiar in shape resem-
bling somewhat that of the species of ALouatTa, but there is no
especial relationship between the genera.
In their distribution each species of Uakari monkey is restricted to
a certain district, and although the ranges of two of them, C. cALvus
and C. RUBICUNDUS, approach rather closely at one point, they are not
known ever to mingle together. Bates, who had very good oppor-
tunities for observing these animals in their native land, states, writing
of them in a general way, that they live in forests which are inundated

during a great part of the year, and they never descend to the ground;
the short tail being no evidence of terrestrial habits such as those of the
short-tailed Baboons of various genera.

LITERATURE OF THE SPECIES.
E. Geoffroy St. Hilaire, in Annales du Muséum d’Histoire
Naturelle, Paris.
CACAJAO CALVUS Piste | as Brachyurus calvus, and C.
MELANOCEPHALUS as Pithecia melanocephala.
Spix, Simiarum et Vespertilionum Brasiliensium.
Under the genus Brachyurus two species are given: C. MELANO-
CEPHALUS redescribed as B. ouakary; and B. israelita =
PITHECIA CHIROPOTES E. Geoffroy.
R. P. Lesson, Species des Mammiféres Bimanes et Quadru-
manes.
Two forms recognized by the Author are placed in Cacajao,
but this is made a subgenus of PirHecia. The species recog-
nized is C. MELANOCEPHALUS with “variété d’age”? B. ouakary
Spix, = C. MELANOCEPHALUS.
E. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, in Archives du Muséum d’Histotre
Naturelle, Paris.
Two species are here first described under the genus Brach-
yurus: B. RUBICUNDUS, and B. CALVUS.
Reichenbach, Die Vollsténdigste Naturgeschichte der Affen.
Cacajyao here contains C. ouakary = C. MELANOCEPHALUS ;
and C. MELANOCEPHALUS; the remaining species being included
in Brachyurus: (B.) RuBICcUNDUS and (B.) CALVvus.
J. E. Gray, Catalogue of Monkeys, Lemurs and Fruit-eating
Bats, in Collection of the British Museum.
In this List the three species above described are placed in a
new genus ‘Ouakaria. Individuals varying in white or red
hues are considered as albinos of C. MELANOCEPHALUS!
Schlegel, Muséum d’Histoire Naturelle des Pays-Bas, Simie.
Three species already described are here placed in the genus
PiTHECcIA, and a supposed white form from the banks of the
river Japura, represented only by an uncolored drawing in
Bates’ book, “The Naturalist on the River Amazon,” (no
specimens from that locality having been seen), is described as
Pithecia alba = CAcAJAO CALVUS.

GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES.
The dispersion of the species of this genus is given in the articles
as described by Bates in the passages quoted. Briefly it may be said
that C. caLvus is confined to the west side of the Japura River near
its mouth; to the banks of the Uatiparana near Tonantins; C. RuBI-
CUNDUS inhabits the eastern half of the western part of the Japura

Genl. Char. Face and fore part of head naked; color pale; tail
short.
Color. Face scarlet; fore part and sides of head cinnamon, the
hairs becoming long below the chin, where they are reddish chestnut;
top of head, neck, upper parts and outer side of limbs whitish gray;
under parts cinnamon rufous; inner side of limbs whitish gray tinged

Young. Bates writes of the young (1. c.) p. 313, “I was surprised
to find the hair of the young animal much paler in color than that of
the adults, it being of a sandy and not brownish red hue, and con-
sequently did not differ overmuch from that of the white species, the
two forms therefore are less distinct from each other in their young
than in their adult states.”
Measurements. Skull: occipito-nasal length, 85; zygomatic width,
64; intertemporal width, 41.5; palatal length, 32; width of braincase,
52; median length of nasals, 16; length of upper molar series, 20;
length of mandible, 58; length of lower molar series, 23. Vertebre:
Cervical, 7; Dorsal, 13; Lumbar, 6; Sacral, 4; Caudal, 15 to 20.
The type in the Paris Museum is so faded that it will no longer
serve for comparison of colors.
Bates says of this species, (1. c.) under the trivial name of ‘white
Uakari,’ that it is only found on the banks of the Japura River near its
principal mouth, and is confined, so far as he was able to ascertain, to
its western side. It goes in small troupes, in the tops of the highest
trees, and subsists on various kinds of fruits. The hunters say, while
nimble in its movements, it does not often leap, but runs along the
larger limbs when travelling from tree to tree. The young are carried
on the back of the mother. The Indians shoot them with poisoned
arrows, and they go a considerable distance after being wounded, and
an experienced hunter is required to follow them. The most expert
hunter is he who can keep up with a wounded Uakari, and catch it in
his arms when it falls exhausted. If then he wishes to keep the animal
alive, a pinch of salt, the antidote for the poison, is put into its mouth
and it revives. These monkeys are in great demand for presents, and
high prices are asked for them, often as much as the equivalent of
nearly twenty dollars.
Adult Uakaris taken in the above manner rarely become tame,
remaining peevish and sulky and bite every one who comes near them,
and are quite silent in captivity, and in the course of a few days refuse
to eat and die. Many succumb to inflammation of the lungs. One he
CACAJAO 303
had as a pet died of this malady. Although kept in an airy veranda,
it soon lost its appetite; its coat which was long, smooth and glossy,
became dingy and ragged, like museum specimens, and its bright scarlet
face became dull. When in health, this color extends to the hair on
the forehead and temples, and over the cheeks and jaw to the neck.
As their hue remained for several hours after the animal’s death, he
supposed it was due, at least partly, to a pigment beneath the skin,
which would probably retain its color after the circulation ceased.
After witnessing so many proofs of this monkey’s morose disposi-
tion, he was to meet a very lively individual at the house of a friend.
It came from an adjoining room, ran to him and climbed into his lap
and nestled there, looking up at him and grinning in the way monkeys
have. It was young, and had been captured after its mother had been
shot. Its teeth were still incomplete and its face was pale and mottled,
the scarlet hue of the adult not having yet appeared. It had been reared
with the children and allowed to run about the house.
The Uakari is one of the many animals the Brazilians call “mortal”
or with delicate constitutions in contradistinction to those which are
“duro” or hardy. Most of those sent from Ega die before reaching
Para, and the difficulty it experiences in accommodating itself to
changed conditions probably influences its restricted range, for its limit
is an area of swampy woods of about sixty miles in extent, without any
barrier to prevent it from wandering farther, except towards the south.
One, which he had on his boat on the Rio Negro, and which was quite
tame, went on shore one morning at Barra and disappeared in the forest
and was gone for twenty-four hours, when he reappeared and walked
down the bowsprit, his mode of departure, to his usual place on deck..
He had evidently found the forest, which was very different from his
humid home on the Japura, uncongenial, and preferred the boat and
captivity, to freedom in such a district.
Schlegel (1. c.) has given the name of Pithecia alba to the monkey
described by Bates, as he considered the uncolored drawing in the
book represented a distinct species from the Uakari found on the
banks of the Solimoens, from the fact that the artist has represented
the hair of the animal much longer than it is on the other, and because
Bates speaks of it as having a shining whitish hue. It may possibly be
that two nearly allied forms of Uakari do exist on these rivers, but
until specimens from the two localities are obtained and compared, it
is hazardous to describe one as distinct upon an uncolored drawing,
and not a very meritorious one at that. It is not easy at times to
recognize different species of monkeys when examples are accessible,
304 CACAJAO
and it is hardly worth while to add to difficulties already existing, and
which are quite sufficient to give the investigator trouble enough,
without bestowing names on possible species that the describer has
never seen! I have included Schlegel’s name among the synonyms of
this species, on the strength of the Scotch verdict “not proven.” The
so called white Uakari is probably an immature individual of the
present species.

Bates in the work from which extracts have ‘already been taken
says: “A most curious fact connected with this monkey is the existence
of an allied form, or brother species, in a tract of country lying to the
west of its district. This differs in being clothed with red instead of
white hair, and has been described by Isidore Geoffroy St. Hilaire

(from specimens brought to Paris in 1847 by the Compte de Castel-
nau) as a distinct species, under the name of Brachyurus rubicundus.
It wholly replaces the white form in the western parts of the Japura
delta; that is to say, in a uniform district of country, 150 miles in
length, and sixty to eighty in breadth, the eastern half is tenanted
exclusively by white Uakaris, and the western half by red ones. The
district, it may be mentioned, is crossed by several channels, which at
the present time doubtless serve as barriers to the dispersal of
monkeys, but cannot have done so for many centuries, as the position
of low alluvial lands, and the direction of channels in the Amazon
Valley, change considerably in the course of a few years. The red-
haired Uakari appears to be most frequently found in the forests lying
opposite to the mouth of the river which leads to Fonteboa, and ranges
thence to the banks of the Uatiparana, the most westerly channel of
the Japura, situated near Tunantins. Beyond that point to the west
there is no trace of either the red or the white form, nor of any other
allied species. Neither do they pass to the eastward of the main
mouth of the Japura, nor to the south shore of the Solimoens. How far
they range northwards along the banks of the Japura, I could not
precisely ascertain; Senhor Chrysostomo, however, assured me that
‘at 180 miles from the mouth of this river, neither white nor red Uakari
is found, but that a third, black-faced and gray-haired species takes
their place.
“T saw two adult individuals of Brachyurus rubicundus at Ega,
and a young one at Fonteboa; but was unable to obtain specimens
myself, as the forests were inundated at the time I visited their
locality. I was surprised to find the hair of this young animal much
paler in colour than that of the adults, it being of a sandy and not of a
brownish-red hue, and consequently did not differ very much from
that of the white species; the two forms, therefore, are less distinct
from each other in their young than in their adult states. The fact
of the range of these singular monkeys being so curiously limited as
here described, cannot be said to be established until the country lying
between the northern shore of the Solimoens and New Granada be
well explored, but there can be no doubt of the separation of the two
forms in the Delta lands of the Japura, and this is a most instructive
fact in the geographical distribution of animals.”

The Squirrel Monkeys are small animals, ranging from Nicaragua
through the valley of the Amazon into Bolivia and Peru, and with their
brilliant coloring are perhaps the most beautiful of their tribe. They
are strictly arboreal, and as Bates remarks, are the most common
of the ordinary monkeys of the American forests. By some writers
they have been considered as closely related to the nocturnal monkeys,
but the relationship is one caused more by environment and conse-
quently similar methods of life than through their organization, and it
may therefore be regarded in the light of being artificial. They possess
large eyes, small ears, and a small inquisitive face, but they would
probably make very unsuccessful hunters by night, as their vision
is only adapted for daylight. Six species and two subspecies are
now recognized, with fairly distinctive characters. It has been found
necessary to make certain changes in the nomenclature of some forms
either on account of previous names having been overlooked by some
of ‘the earlier writers, or the law of priority disregarded. There is
little or no change in the appearance of the sexes, or between old and
young individuals, and these causes of frequent errors in other groups
being non-existent, the synonymy of the various forms is happily brief.

GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE SPECIES AND SUBSPECIES.
The range of the various species is as yet but imperfectly known
for several have been obtained only from a few localities, and some
indeed from only one, and those given heretofore by previous writers
are to some extent misleading as more than one species have been
confused together and the separate ranges united. The most northern
distribution of members of this genus is in Central America where S.
-GRSTEDI is found from south of the Herradura Mountains to Panama.
In northern South America S. scluREUS is met with in the three
Guianas, Venezuela and Colombia, and to the south on both banks of
the Amazon and some of its tributaries as the Rio Negro, Rio Uaupe,
Rio Javari, (Schlegel), etc., and in the Province of Goyas, Brazil. S.
CASSIQUIARENSIS ranges from the banks of the Orinoco south of the
Cataracts to the Rio Cassiquiare, and in the forests through which the
Rio Caura flows above the rapids of Mura, and thence westward to
the Rio Copataza in Ecuador. From Humayta, middle Rio Madeira,
also in Ecuador, S. MADEIR# has been procured. On the banks of the
Ucayali, Peruvian Amazons, S. ustus is found and at Cosnipata in
eastern Peru, S. b. nigriceps is met with. S. Macropon has been
obtained from the banks of the Rio Copataza in Ecuador; and from
those of the Rio Juara, and from Marcopata in Peru. S. BoLIVIENSIS
occurs in the Sierras Guarayas, Bolivia.

This species has been usually known as S. lunulatus Geoff., but
this name is antedated by Humboldt’s cassIQUIARENSIS bestowed on it
thirty-three years previously. The whereabouts of the type does not
appear to be known.
Humboldt states that this Squirrel Monkey is common south of
the cataracts of the Orinoco; some are found there of a more slender
form and are very difficult to tame, and also on the banks of the
Guaviare River, and in the forests in which the Caura River flows
above the rapids of Mura. The smallest and prettiest of the Titis are
those of Cassiquiare. Schlegel says (1. c.) that an individual of this
species was brought to his notice, which was procured by a French
naturalist near the Oyapock, a river separating French from Portu-
guese Guiana. Spix, according to Wagner, obtained three examples
of this species, called by Wagner C. nigrivittatus! at the junction of
the Teffé and Solimoens rivers near Ega, but Spix does not mention
this monkey.
SAIMIRI MACRODON Elliot.
Saimiri macrodon Elliot, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., XIX, 1907, 7th
Ser up. noo.
Type locality. Copataza River, Ecuador. Type in British
Museum.
Geogr. Distr. Upper waters of the Amazon, Ecuador; and Rio
Jurua; Marcopata, Peru.
Genl. Char. Similar to S. sciureus, but hands and feet much
darker. Skull has a much higher and narrower braincase; much wider
palate, and larger teeth with the external line of the upper tooth row
much more curved; zygomatic arch wider; and intertemporal width,
greater; bullz narrower and longer.
Color. General color like S. sctuREuS with the back darker, that
of the type being tawny and black on the dorsal region, golden yellow
and black on the flanks; arms above elbow dark gray washed with
yellow; legs paler; under parts yellowish white; arms from a short
SAIMIRI 313
distance below the elbow, hands and feet tawny; head and tail like S.
SCIUREUS. Ex type British Museum.
Measurements. Size similar to S. sctureus. Skull: occipito-nasal
length, 64.5; zygomatic width, 43; intertemporal width, 32; median
length of nasals, 11; width of braincase, 36; height of braincase above
zygomata, 35; palatal length, 19; length of upper molar series, 13;
length of mandible, 40; length of lower molar series, 16; width of
palate between canines, 12; width of palate between last molars, 13.
Ex type British Museum.
While the general color of this animal resembles that of S.
SCIUREUS from the east coast of South America, it is at once noticeable
by its much darker forearms, hands and feet. But the great differences
between them are exhibited in the skull, and the large teeth of the
present species. The braincase has quite a different shape, being large
and narrow with an elevated forehead sloping rapidly downward to
the occiput where it is narrow and rounded. The palate is wider
throughout its length, while the teeth are much larger, the canines
being also stouter and broader. Several specimens were brought by
Mr. Buckley from the type locality and there are others in the British
Museum Collection from the Jurua River, a tributary of the Upper
Amazon, and from Marcopata, Peru.

GEOFFROY’S SQUIRREL OR TITI MONKEY.
Type locality. Unknown. Type in Paris Museum.
Geogr. Distr. Peruvian Amazons, Bolivia.
Genl. Char. Ears naked saye a fringe of hairs on the inside near
the upper edge; general color golden yellow and black.
Color. Upper part of head, shoulders, upper arms to elbow, and
hind limbs to ankles golden yellow speckled with black, the hairs being
golden yellow with black tips; back from neck to rump orange red
and black, the latter being the tips to the orange red hairs; face around
eyes and upper part of nose flesh color, muzzle black; cheeks pale
yellow ; sides of head. and neck, throat, under parts of body and fore-
arms golden yellow; hands and feet reddish brown; tail, hairs golden
yellow with black tips, the tip of tail all black. Ex type Paris Museum.
Measurements. Size about equal to S. scturEA Linn. Skull: total
length, 72. (Geoff. Arch. Mus.).
The type of this form is in the Paris Museum and fairly well
preserved, though probably the golden yellow of the greater part of the
body has faded somewhat. The back, however, is conspicuous for
the depth of its orange red color, and more resembles the hues of the
Central American forms than any of the eastern South American
examples. With our present knowledge of this group, in spite of
Schlegel’s unqualified statement, (1. c.) it seems best to consider
SAIMIRI 315
Geoffroy’s species as distinct, until undoubted evidence is obtained to
the contrary.

RSTED’S TITI MONKEY.
Tvpe locality. Chiriqui, Panama.
Geogr. Distr. Guatemala? to Panama, Central America.
Color. Face and sides of head to ears white; top of head and
SAIMIRI 317
nape black; shoulder and outer side of arms to below elbows, and legs
to ankles gray washed with yellow; upper parts dark ochraceous
rufous, dorsal line dark orange rufous; throat and between arms
white, rest of under parts and inner side of limbs ochre yellow; hands
and feet ochraceous; tail above for two thirds the length black and
yellow, beneath yellow, apical portion black.
Measurements. Total length, 633; tail, 363; foot, 78; ear, 24.
Skull: occipito-nasal length, 56; zygomatic width, 36; intertemporal
width, 30; palatal length, 15; breadth of braincase, 35; median length
of nasals, 8; length of upper molar series, 11; length of mandible, 31;
length of lower molar series, 13.
This species was originally described from an example obtained
at Chiriqui, and Dr. Frantzius states it is confined to the hotter region,
being very abundant in the valley of Terraba and on the plain of Piris,
and he believed its northern limit to be the spurs of the Herradura
Mountains going towards the sea. A living individual was presented
to the London Zoological Society by Mr. W. F. Kelley, who said it
was procured in the Department of Solala, Guatemala, but no other
example seems to have come from there and it is surmised that possibly
Mr. Kelley’s animal may have been brought from some southern
locality.
Mr. Thomas has described the monkey from Pozo Azul, Costa
Rica (1. c.) as a distinct race under the name of S. er. citrinellus, the
chief character being the head “less blackened and the limbs less yel-
low.” <A series of these monkeys from Panama collected by J. H.
Batty and two specimens from Pozo Azul collected by M. A. Carriker,
belonging to the New York Museum of Natural History are before
me. In the Panama series every style of head coloring from jet black
to gray is represented, some almost exactly like the examples from
Pozo Azul, and the difference in coloration would seem to be due to
age, the old adults having intensely black crowns, and this passing
through all grades of coloring to the young animals with little or no
black on the head. The type of S. er. citrinellus in the British Museum
has less black on the head than the old adults, and it does not go so
far on the occiput, but other specimens from the same localities in the
Museum collection have black crowns, and it does not seem that a dis-
tinct race can be sustained, knowing, as we do, the great diversity of
head coloring that exists at different periods of the animal’s existence.
I have therefore placed S. er. citrinellus as a synonym of S. G&RSTEDI.
