Apart from the removal of Tarsius from the Lemuroidea ami 

 the union of the Lorisidfe and Galagidae in a group equivalent to 

 the Lemuridfe and Indrisidse combined, my classification agrees 

 in the main with the classification published in Flower and 

 Lydekker's ' Mammals,' and in other works of about that period. 

 Of more recent classifications it appears to me that Gadow's 

 .(Class, of the Vertebrata, 1898, pp. 52-53), although brief, ex- 

 presses the facts with the nearest approach to the truth, especially 

 in the primary division of the Primates into the three suborders 

 Lemures, Tarsii, and Simile.
