Upon the posterior 

 found a number of 



being attached

Skull, seen directly from above. 



Of the male organs of generation nothing is known ; but I presume 

 the penis may resemble that of the short-tailed Japanese and Ursine 

 Monkeys. In both of these there is a large-sized bone and other 

 peculiarities, which I shall describe in a future communication. 



In our female specimen the vagina, 1 inch long, had chiefly trans- 

 verse rugae, which were far from being prominent ; the lips of the 

 os tincse project much into the vagina. The uterus, from the fundus 

 to the os, is 2 - 2 inches long, but interiorly is no more than (V4 inch 

 in each diameter, the thick walls having the usual transverse and 

 longitudinal rugosities. Urinary bladder globular, with a very short 

 narrow neck.
