This species is quite unlike P. mordax from -lava, hut nearer the 

 one from Bawean Island, from which, however, it is easily distin- 

 guished by its blackish brown tail. All those Javanese macaques 

 appear to have the forward fan-shaped radiation of the hair from the 

 cars, a peculiarity belonging, however, to others of the genus, but 

 usually with a more circular radiation not so much confined to a 

 forward movement . 



The skull is very different from the Bawean Island macaque, 

 being much smaller with a narrow rostrum, decreasing in width 

 towards incisors; the zygomatic arch has very little expansion and 

 is parallel with the skull, being practically straight without curve; 

 orbits much higher than wide; a low ridge is present from frontal 

 to occiput formed of inner ridge-like edge of orbits unit ing on anterior 

 part of the frontal, dividing again at interparietal and joining the 

 occipital ridge on either side; tooth rows straight, palate narrow; 

 upper incisors projecting.
