TAXIDERMY. 



rabon, the wava pair, the mana viri, and especially 

 the dooroocooli or sleeping ape, also known under 

 the names of cousi-cousi, cara-rayada, or mono- 

 tiger. 



It is easy to procure the skin and skeletons of 

 these apes, and to bring several of them alive. 



It is also desirable to procure a skin of the black 

 tiger of Esmeralda, as also the skins of the different 

 species of roe-buck, (venados) of the Llanos of 

 Cumana and Barcelona. 



From New Holland, and Part Jackson. 



Different species of ornithorhyncus (platypus of 

 Shaw) a number if possible in spirits. Phalangers, 

 and dasyuri, and others of the genus didelphis, in 

 spirits. 



Besides the objects we have already enumerated, 

 we desire, from each country, all the small species 

 of apes, and animals akin to them. Weasels, pole- 

 cats, moles, squirrels, bats, and all small quadru- 

 peds without distinction. 



Seals, the species of which are very various, and 

 are found on the coasts of all seas. 



Every species of fish and reptile, especially the 

 fish which may be eaten. 



Mollusca and marine worms.
