The skull of this form is considerably smaller than that of 

 either 6^. crassicaudatus or G. Garnetti. In colour it differs 

 in being paler and in the very long, pale, almost white tail. 

 Two specimens are in the Museum collection varying slightly 

 in colour, the paratype having unfortunately lost half its tail. 



Galago gahonensis Bated^ subsp. n. 



Type locality. Como River, Gaboon, West Africa. 



Gen. char. Similar to G. gahonensis, but much darker 

 above and has a black tail and light grey feet, and from 

 G. Alleni it is distinguished by its black tail and grey feet 

 and legs below the knee. 



Colour. Forehead, base of ears, cheeks, stripe between eyes, 

 and nose light grey ; top of head and hind-neck and upper- 

 parts dark mummy-brown ; outer side of arms dark tawny; a

 whitish ; hands greyish mummy-brown ; tail seal-brown, 

 sprinkled with grey on basal half. Ears large, blackish. 



Measurevients. Total length 470 mm. ; tail 250. Skull :

 intertemporal width 18; palatal length 19; width of brain- 

 case 24 ; length of nasals 13 ; length of upper molar series 16 ; 

 length of mandible 31 ; length of lower molar series 14. 



B.M. no. of type 96. 10. 9. 4. 



While this race has a general resemblance to both G. Alleni 

 and G. gahonensis, it can readily be distinguished from both : 

 by its grey legs and feet from G. Alleni, and from G. gahon- 

 ensis by its grey feet, darker upperparts, and black tail. 

 The two forms come together on the Como River, but there 

 are no intermediate specimens. 



Galago braccatus, sp. n. 



Type locality. Mount Kilimanjaro, East Africa. 

 Gen. char. Similar to G. gallaruin^ but darker grey above,
