Typical locality Paramo of PapaUacta, Ecuador. 



Size probably rather larger than in F. pudic — shoulder- 

 height about 14 or 15 inches ; coat long and coarse, with 

 basal portion of hairs brittle and pith-like, the terminal 

 halves black with ferruginous tips, producing a rich brown 

 colour; back darker than flailks, owing to the hairs having 

 broader black bands with correspondingly reduced coloured 

 tips, on neck the tips paler and longer, the black being 

 reduced, producing a tawny appearance, but towards the 

 head the black increasing, till the shorter hairs of ears, face, 

 and chin are almost black; ears very short, partially con- 

 cealed by rough hairs, thickly haired inside and out, the 

 hairs on the inside broadly tipped with white; feet black, 

 with most of the hairs minutely tipped with buff; inner 

 sides of legs and abdomen clothed with long yellowish hairs 

 of a finer type.
