then banded with ochraceous and black, giving it a reddish hue below 

 the black. 



Female. No. 5. 11. 3. 5. resembles the male in markings, but is 

 generally paler, especially on the head, legs, hands and feet. The top 

 of the head is broccoli brown, the legs and feet wood brown, and 

 hands mixed black and buff. The hair of both examples, like the 

 species generally, is very long and fluffy, and hangs down covering the 

 sides of the body and concealing the ears. The whiskers are long and 

 bushy. Tail very short, covered thickly with rather long hair. 



Measurements. Male. Total length, 720 ; tail, to end of hairs, 80 ; 

 foot, 140, (skin). Skull: total length, 127.7; occipito-nasal length, 

 111.3; zygomatic width, 85.8; intertemporal width, 42.9; breadth of 

 braincase, 63.7; palatal length, 49.1; median length of nasals, 33.5;

A female from Tuino, Tokushima Keu, Shikokio, Japan, in the 

 British Museum differs considerably in color from those described 

 above, as there are no black bands on the hairs and very few black 

 tips, so that the general color is a reddish brown. The hair on the 

 legs and feet is unicolor, a grayish brown without bars or colored tips, 

 as is also that on cheeks and about ears, although in these places the 

 tips of the hairs are ochraceous buff as on the body hairs. The arms 

 and hands are brown approaching a hair brown but darker, and the 

 apical half is banded with brownish black and cream buff, and tipped 

 with brownish black. Under parts and inner side of limbs whitish. 

 Tail pale yellowish brown, brownish red near tip, above, reddish at 

 root ; beneath yellowish brown. 



Measurements. Total length, 681; tail, 80; foot, 149; ear, 47,
