Bridge of nose and last inch of tail dusky brown." In the latter the general colour is more yellow the whole lower parts and the limbs are ferrugiuous (there appears to be much %Ferition perhaps sexual in the colour of the upper parts) the bridge of the nose is not dark but the tip is and at least 8 inches at the end of the tail are black. [...] p. 881)." The work referred to is The length of the tail in the Lad& specimen is without the hair at the end. [...] I have carefully examined the three skulls and am convinced that they belong in all probability to three different species that of the skeleton differing widely from both the others in the form of the palate and of the nasal bones in the length of the sagittal crest and the point of its bifurcation whilst of the two remaining one is much larger than the other besides other differences. [...] This is very close to the measurement of A. Hemachalanus and the skin agrees with the description of that species in having the frontal portion of the face dark brown. [...] Tail the same colour as the back except the tip which is black ; the length of the black tip varies but never exceeds about 21 inches in the specimens before me and in three out of the four it is only about an inch : hairs of the tail about 2 inches long brown at the base.
