GALAGO 71 



the superior outline of the skull very much less rounded, indeed quite 

 flat as compared with that of G. sennaariensis. Of the braincase 

 only the frontals and parietals remain, the occipital region and bullae, 

 and lower portion of skull on one side even to the palate, having disap- 

 peared, so no comparison can be made beyond those already given.

 broccoli brown ; legs cream buff ; under parts and inner side of limbs 

 yellowish white; cream buff on chest. Ex type in British Museum. 



Measurements. Total length about 355 to end of hairs on tail ; tail, 

 185. Skull : from frontal suture to end of nasals, 27 ; median length 

 of nasals, 10; width of rostrum at canines, 7; length of palate, 

 15; width between last molars, 7; length of lower molar series, 13. 

 Ex type in British Museum. 



The type in the British Museum Collection of skins and an ex- 

 ample in alcohol from Zomba, Nyassa, are all that are known of this 

 species. While the skin resembles in color G. gallarum more perhaps 

 than any other, the skull in its long and narrow rostral region, and 

 low crown is very different. The type was procured by Dr. Kirk when 

 he was accompanying Dr. Livingstone, the famous Explorer.
