from the white nose-spot and the eye all way down the neck 

 towards the shoulders. Anteriorly, however, in the centre of 

 the broad black area between the eye and the* upper lip, 

 the black hairs have yellowish white bases so that there is a 

 concealed light spöt, which in the other specimen is still more 

 developed. The hairs on the upper parts of the head are 

 black with rings of a clear yellow. These yellow rings are, 

 however, absent on the forehead and from there on a strip 

 över the eyes to the ears, so that in such a way a black 

 frontal and brow band is formed bordering the yellowish 

 white cheekspot althongh there is no difference between this 

 band and the gröundcolour of the head. Före legs blackish on 

 the outside, only at the shoulders minutely speckled. Hairs 

 of the back broadly ringed with rich rufous which is the 

 dominating colour in the middle of the back, but on the 

 flanks and on the tighs the rings are more yellow and the 

 ground» colour more slaty grey. In consequence of the varia- 

 bility of this monkey more material is needed before it can 

 be stated whether there are any distinct subspecies or not.

1 specimen.

 far Southwest as to Loanda. 



Viven-a civetta Schreber.

In both these specimens the black ocular band is broadly
