OF THE TONGUES OF THE ilAJIMALIA. 767 



7. The genera of the Hapalida> cannot be distinguished from 

 one another by the characters of the tongue. 



8. The tongues of Lemur and Haixdemihr resemble those of 

 the Simiidse most closely. 



9. It is impossible to ally the tongue of Microcehits with those 

 of Lemur and Hcqmlemur, but it resembles those of the Lorisidee 

 and Galagidse. 



10. The characters of the tongue at once distinguish the 

 Lorises, Galagos, and Pottos from Lemur. 



11. The tongue of Tarsius resembles neither those of the 

 Simiidse nor of Lemur, and is hard to distinguish from those of 

 the Lorisid?e and Galagidse. It has three vallate papillse in a 

 line, but these may be elements of a triangle which has been 

 flattened out. 



12. The keel on the under surface of the sublingua is not the 

 true lytta as described by Owen.
