This race resembles C. t. budyetti in the colouring of the 

 upper parts, but differs in having the grey hands and feet of 

 C. tantalus. From the latter species it differs in cranial 

 characters. When two old male skulls are compared, that 

 of the present race is seen to be much longer in every way : 

 ■wider orbits and brain-case, but narrower rostrum ; inter- 

 temporal width greater; nasals much longer; zygomatic 

 width greater ; palate longer ; tooth-rows of both jaws longer 

 by the width of the first premolar ; and bailee much longer 

 and more elevated. In fact, the cranial characters are so 

 different it is not worth while to compare them. The upper 

 parts, as in C. t. biidgetti, are much darker than in 

 C. tantalus.
