Hab. Upper Vanapa R. 



In spite of its superficial resemblance to Pò-, albertisi, this 

 species may be readily recognized by the absence of the mar- 

 ginal bristles to the ear, by its uniform dull fulvous belly, by 

 its narrower nasals, smaller bullae, the length and straiglitness 

 of both upper and lower anterior incisors, and by the marked 

 difference in the size of tlie upper canine and anterior premolar. 



This handsome and interesting Phalanger, the finest of Dr. 

 Loria's discoveries, has b}' his desire, been named in honour of 

 his deceased sister. Signora Corinna Anau. 



Tlie still larger species, Pseudochirus cwpreus, described by me 

 at the same time , also comes from the Owen Stanley Range , 

 but was not met with by Dr. Loria.

Dr. Loria's specimens show that, as I suspected, the original 

 example had accidentally lost some of its teeth, as they all 

 possess the fall number of three premolars, but these, as in 

 tlie type, are of excessively small size.
