Dr. Dahlbom gives as the characters of this species, from the Paris 

 specimen, that the ears are nearly bald, or only slightly hairy. Our 

 specimen with the grey fore legs has the ears hairy, just like the 

 specimen of G. schireus. If it were not for the shortness of the tail, 

 I should consider this to be only a large variety of 0. sciureus. 



** Head black; hairs yellow, with black tips.

Fur golden brown ; hairs of back black, with long yellow tips ;
