CLASSIFICATION OF THE ANIMALS 

 MENTIONED IN THIS BOOK 



Class : MAMMALIA 



Order : PRIMATES 



(Man, Apes, and Lemurs) 

 Sub-order : ANTHROPOIDEA 



(Includes Man, Anthropoid (Man-like) Apes, and Monkeys) 

 Family : CERCOPITHECID^; 



(Old-World Monkeys and Baboons) 



The whole of the Monkeys of the Old World, with the 

 exception of the Anthropoid or man-like Apes, are included 

 in this family. They are distinguished from most of the 

 New- World (American) Monkeys by having bare callosities 

 on the buttocks and by the presence of cheek pouches or sac- 

 culated stomachs. In a considerable number of the American 

 Monkeys the tail is prehensile. It is not so in any of the 

 Old-World Monkeys.
