1 An asterisk prefixed to a species mentioned in this work indicates that it was obtained or observed on one or 

 other of the two Expeditions to Western China. 



2 A reference to this term, S. scyritus, Ogilby, has been given by Waterhouse in his Cat. Mamm. Zool. Soc 

 Lond. 1838, p. 3, to the Proc. Zool. Soc. 1837, but I have failed to discover it. Waterhouse appears to have been 

 followed by succeeding authors, who have quoted his reference without verifying it. Ogilby, too, himself in his 

 " Natural History of Monkeys, Lemurs, and Opossums" (Charles Knight's Library Ent. Know. " Menageries " vol i 

 1838, p. 144), refers to the Zool. Trans, vol. iv., p. 109, for the description of H. scyritus ; but in the reference in 

 que.stion no such species is named. 



2 Ogilby mentions a Gibbon described by Harlan as H. niger ; but I have not been able to discover that any 

 Gibbon has ever been described under that name.
