These specimens are practically topotypes as three spe- 

 cimens, which Consul Söderström presented to Thomas and 

 on which he based this species, were from »Puembo, Upper 

 Guallabamba River.» 



The largest male skull has a condylobasal length of 80 

 mm, while the corresponding dimension of the largest female 

 skull is only 72,5 mm, although the latter is a very old 

 individual with obsolete nasal sutures. The zygomatic breadth 

 is resp. 47,4 and 44,2 mm. 



Dasyprocta fuliginosa Wagler. 



1 $ ^7i2 1910 near the river Curaray, El Orienté, about

 appear, however, to be darker so that the general colour is 

 not »påle olivaceous yellow washed with black», but rather 

 dark grizzled brownish, and on the back the black is domi-
