Upperparts colored like in the foregoing species, the tinge is how- 

 ever somewhat more brownish, caused by the hairs being for a 

 larger part tipped with brownish; this color prevails still more on 

 the underparts of the animal. Tail much more conical than in Cr. 

 weberi and orientalis; the hairs on the tail are black colored like in 

 the named species, but they are generally longer, especially towards the 

 base of that organ , where also some very elongate hairs are to be found. 

 Upper jaw. exactly like the same parts in Cr. orientalis. 

 Lowerjaw : I see no difference between Cr. brevicauda and Cr. orientalis. 

 All the teeth are white.
