There are several specimens of this animal in the Museum Col- 
lection. The skin of the adult measures about 5 inches long, from 
the tip of the nose to the base of the tail; the tail is 73 inches long ; 
the hind foot and shin are about 1 inch 8 lines long. There are 
some smaller specimens in spirits, which appear to be younger, 
which have the hind foot only from 1 inch 4 lines to 1 inch 6 lines 
long. 
I am induced to suppose that Mr. Murray’s Galago murinus from 
Old Calabar is the young of this species, as the hind foot is figured 
about 14 inch long. 
The skull without a lower jaw, which in the Museum Catalogue 
of Bones is put under Microcebus myoximus(p. 38), evidently belongs to 
this species.
