* To give a complete list of all the authorities by whose 

 works I have profited in compiling this list, would be almost to 

 repeat the name of every recent writer on the subject ; but I 

 cannot refrain from specially mentioning those of Dr. Giebel, Dr. 

 Baird. Dr. Gray, and Mr. Blyth, as those to whom I am most 

 indebted. Ne.\t to these, I would acknowledge my obligations to 

 Blasius, Bonaparte, Burmeister, Gay, Gervais, Keyserhng, Leidy, 

 Middendorf, Midler, Nilsson, Pictet, Radde, Schreber, .Schinz, 

 Sclater, A. Smith, Schrenck, Tschudi, Wagner, and Waterhouse. 



t Dr. Gray has, I think, satisfactorily shown (" Proc. Zool. 

 Soc." Dec. 1861, p. 273) that the species described by De Chaillu 

 (" Proc. Boston Soc. Nat. Hist." vii. 296 et seq.), under the names

of T. Calvus and T. Kooloo Kamba, are not distinct from the 

 Chimpanzee, T. Niger. The same conclusion should probably 

 be come to with the sujiposed species, T. Tschego, described by 

 Duvernoy ("Archiv. Mus. d'Hist. Nat." viii. 1). The figures 

 there given of its skeleton correspond with the skeleton of the 

 Chimpanzee, and the very name which he has preserved for its 

 specific designation is almost identical with the native name of 

 tiie Chimpanzee; for Mr. Bowdich, in his account of his mission to 

 Ashantee in 1817, p. 440, informs us tliat its name is Inchego. 

 He speaks of two distinct kinds, the Inchego (Chimpanzee) and 

 Ingena (Gorilla), and tells some curious tales, a mixture of truth 

 and fable, of the habits, strength, and ferocity of the latter.
