EAST AFRICAN MAMMALS IN NATIONAL MUSEUM. 21 
specimen from Ikoma which I have here listed as Papio newmanni 
differs greatly from skulls of Papio furaz in its larger size and longer 
rostrum, equaling in these features the skulls of Papio vigilis from 
the Northern Guaso Nyiro. Without more material from northern 
German East Africa it will be impossible to determine it with 
accuracy, but as it was collected only a comparatively short distance 
northwest from the type locality of newmanni, and as no other 
baboons, except furax and newmanni, are recorded from this general 
region, it seems safe to assume that this specimen is the skull of the 
‘adult male of the latter. Mr. Lindsay’s notes on the specimen say 
that it was shot in the river bottom at Ikoma, May 30, 1914.

This series includes one fully adult male, which exceeds in measure- 
ments the type-specimen described by Elliot. The collector’s field 
book gives the weight of this large male as 76 pounds, and its 
measurements as follows: Head and body, 780; tail vertebre, 550; 
hind foot, 235.

Specimens.—Two, as follows: 
AByssINIA: No definite locality, 2 (Menelik). 
Both of these specimens were presented alive to President Roose- 
velt by Emperor Menelik of Abyssinia and were deposited in the 
National Zoological Park on November 24, 1904. They were then 
not much more than one-half grown. The male died on December 
27, 1904, and the female on January 12, 1906. The complete skeleton 
of the male is preserved, as well as the skin. ~
