 There a^'e two genera distinguished by Blanford as follows :^ 



Key to the genera of the luEUvmoJE. 



A. — ^Either oni}^ two incisors, or four of unequal 

 size, the inner pair much larger than the outer ; 

 tail present, but very shoi't ; limbs not remarka- 

 bly slender ... ... ... ... ... 1. Nycticehi s. 



/i — Four small upper incisors, of equal size; tail 



none; limbs very slender ... ... ... II. LoRis. 



Gen. I. — Nycticebus. 



'J'his name belongs by right to the Slender Loris of Oeyk»ii 



(Thomas, A.M.N.H.,p. 468, 1908: 

 No. 2b. tardigradvs, L. and P.Z.S.,p.l29, 1911). The next 



oldest name is couco.vg, based by 

 Boddaerton the "tailless Macauco " of Pennant (Elench. Anim. i, 

 p. 6/, 1785). Pennant's actual description of the animal, a specimen 

 in the Leverian Museum, is unmistakeably that of a NYCTiCEBifs. 

 although in his other remarks he seems to confuse Nycticebus and 

 Loris. No specimen, so far as I know, has ever again been 

 obtained from the type localitj-. i.e., Bengal (.T.B.N. H.S., xxiv., ]).
