III.— THE GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF 

 THE PRIMATES. 



By means of the accompanying tables and maps I have 

 attempted to present in a concise and clear manner the dis- 

 tribution of the Lemuroidea and the Anthropoidea in time and 

 in space. 



For the distribution of existing forms I have followed the 

 divisions of the Globe proposed by Dr. Bowdler Sharpe in his 

 essay on the Zoo-Geographical Areas of the World, published 

 in "Natural Science" (Vol. III., pp. 100-108). 



I. Table showing the genera of Primates peculiar to, and 

 common to, the Old and New Worlds. 



A. LEMUROIDEA.
