NO. 2028. PHILIPPINE LAND MAMMALS— HOLLISTER. 329 



CoZor.— General color of upperparts a dark, rich russet-brown, most 

 intense on head and shoulders; the hairs long and coarse, deep mouse- 

 gray at bases and marked on terminal half with alternate rings of 

 black and rich ochraceous-tawny ; usual black markings on head; 

 sides and hips lighter than back, with less black and more yellow. 

 Outer sides of arms and legs mixed gray and ochraceous-tawny, 

 becoming duller, almost old-gold near wrists and ankles ; hands and 

 feet grayish-buff. Underparts, including inner sides of Umbs, dirty 

 buffy-gray. Tail blackish above near base, becoming dark gi'ay at 

 end; below dark buffy-gray. "Iris yellowish-brown; bare space 

 above eye grayish-white ; bare skin of muzzle light brown; feet olive- 

 plumbeous; claws plumbeous-black; scrotum brownish-fiesh color." 



SJcull and teeth. — The skull differs greatly in general shape from that 

 of the Luzon macaque (which is long and comparatively narrow with 

 a deep and narrow palate) . It is shaped almost exactly Hke that of 

 the Mmdanao species, broad and rounded, with wide and heavy 

 rostrum and wide, shallow palate; but it is decidedly larger, with a 

 much heavier mandible. The teeth show the small supplementary, 

 middle inner cusps on the molars, as usual in mindanensis. These 

 cusps are, apparently, not normally present in syricTita. 



Measurements of type. — Total length, 1,100 mm.; tail, 580; hind 

 foot, 140; girth of chest, 390. Skull: Greatest length, 136; condylo- 

 basal length, 112; zygomatic breadth, 84.9; front of orbit to tip of 

 premaxillary, 54.8; breadth of rostrum above canine, 36.9; breadth 

 of braincase above roots of zygomata, 62.9; palatal length, 57.8; 

 postpalatal length, 45; upper molar-premolar series, 32.9; mandible, 

 102; mandibular molar-premolar series, 42.2. 



Specimens. — Three, from the following locaUties: Mindoro: Alag 

 River, 1, the type (Mearns); Bulalacao, 1 (Porter); Mount Halcon, 1 

 (Mearns) . 



While differing specifically from the Luzon and the Mindanao 

 species, the Mindoro macaque exhibits a curious combination of the 

 distinguishing characteristics of both.
