PAPIO MAIMON. 23 



The foot is larger in proportion to the size of the hand, for a basis to 

 stand upon. It is made for climbing or holding, having a lateral motion 

 to the thumb. 



In examining another specimen the heart seemed flatter, and not 

 so much twisted ; and the epiploon was only one bag. 



In a she monkey [Papio Maimon] that they called a ' woman tiger 1 ,' 

 there is a digastric muscle. It does not make the angle that the 

 digastric in the human does, nor is it bound near so firmly to the os 

 hyoides : the principal binding is to the other muscle on the other side 

 by a thin fascia. However, the stylo-hyoideus encloses it as in the 

 human. The thyroid gland is much as in the human : they [the lobes] 

 have a very short [intercommunicating' band ?]. 



The lungs are divided into three lobes on each side, owing to the axis 

 of the heart being more in the direction of the animal's body. The 

 pericardium is connected to the diaphragm by a thin membrane, about 

 half an inch broad : this membrane is single, so that there is no cavity 

 for a lobe of the lungs, as in brutes. The situation of the heart is a 

 good deal as in the human, so that the broad surface can rest upon the 

 diaphragm when [the animal is] erect. This seems to be the cause for 

 the situation of the heart in the human subject. The duodenum is 

 pretty much as in the human, but rather more loose ; for, after it has 

 got below the beginning of the transverse arch of the colon, it can be 

 seen in its whole course behind the mesentery by turning the mesentery 

 up, so that the mesentery does not adhere to the spine below the 

 duodenum. There are no valvulse conniventes. The caecum does not 

 adhere to the right side, but is loose ; and the colon on the right side 

 only adheres, as in the human, at the angle where it is going to make 

 the transverse arch ; so that it is only at the upper part of the winding 

 portion that it adheres. The colon has three ligaments, [longitudinal 

 bands] which terminate on the rectum as in the human. 



The liver is divided into three lobes, besides the lobulus Spigelii : the 

 middle lobe is the largest, and has a fissure in it, like the human, for 

 the foetal vein, and has the gall-bladder attached to it : the duct of it 

 is like the human. The lobulus Spigelii is continued to the right, out 

 from behind the little epiploon, and makes a little lobe there. The 

 pancreas is just as in the human ; so is the epiploon. 



The contents of the pelvis are a good deal as in the human, but more

 mandrill is called the ' Man-tiger from Africa,']
