This is a yellowish baboon, the hairs with a somewhat greenish 

 tinge on upper parts. It has long legs and a slender body, and I am 

 inclined to consider it the same as P. cynocephalus. As the type of 

 "this species has no locality, there is nothing to guide us as regards its 

 patria, and the type of langheldi resembles closely the specimen of P. 

 titotli in the British Museum. The skull has a very long facial region, 

 being 111 mm. from the posterior end of nasals to the incisors, with a 

 low braincase barely raised above the orbital ridges, and is 105 mm. in 

 length, 76 mm. greatest breadth. There are slightly elevated ridges on 

 sides of rostrum above narial aperture. 



The type of P. thoth Ogilby, is in the British Museum, numbered 

 55. 12. 24. 8. Skull No. 1,100 a. The example is mounted and is of an 

 olive brownish yellow, and may be described as follows : 



Top of head, hind neck, upper parts and sides of body to thighs 

 olive brownish yellow, the hairs having several cream colored rings 

 and black tips ; rump and legs a clearer yellow than the body ; sides 

 of head, throat and front of shoulders yellowish white or yellowish 

 gray ; outer side of arms, chest and under parts like the back ; inner 

 side of limbs yellowish, the hairs without annulations ; hands and feet 

 mixed yellow and black, the latter being mainly on the tips of the hairs. 

 Hairs on upper back are very long, some reaching 300 mm., but they 

 do not form a mane. The tail is yellow at base, remainder blackish 

 brown, but it is difficult to determine whether this last is the natural 

 color, or if it arises from the paucity of fur on the dark skin, or from 

 the accumulation of dust deposited during the many years the specimen 

 has been exhibited. Total length, 1,444; tail, 620; foot, 210. The 

 animal when living must have been a long time in captivity, the skull 

 showing this in its abnormal shape and its deteriorated condition. 



The type of C. babuin F. Cuvier, is in the Paris Museum and 

 resembles closely P. thoth, much more so indeed than it does any other 

 specimen of the cynocephalus type. Unfortunately neither example 

 has any locality given for it, and whence these types originally came is 

 quite unknown.
