Suborder LEMUROIDEA. 



Family LEMURID^ (pt. i. p. 8). 



Genus ADAPTS (pt. i. p. 8). 



Adapis magna (pt. i. p. 262). 



M. 3572. The greater part of the left maxilla ; from the Hordwell 

 beds of Hampshire. In this specimen all the cheek-teeth 

 except pm. 1 are preserved. 



Presented hj Sir B. Owen, K.C.B., 1884. 



Genus C^NOPITHECUS, Eiitimeyer \ 



There is considerable doubt if this form is really distinct from 

 Adapis, with which it was provisionally identified by Gervais ^. 

 Gaudry ^ compares the teeth of Ccenopithecus to those of Lemur and 

 Hapalemur, while those of Adapis are regarded as nearer to Indris 

 and Galago ; but the dentition of A. magna, figured by Gaudry *, 

 closely resembles Riitimeyer's figure of Ccenopithecus. 



Csenopithecus lemuroides, Elitimeyer \ 



This is the type species. 

 Hah. Switzerland. 



M. 2175. Cast of a fragment of the right maxilla, probably belonging 

 to this species, and containing five cheek-teeth. The 

 original is from the Upper Eocene (Oligocene) of Eger- 

 kingen, near Soleure, Switzerland ; the true molars 

 apparently resemble those of the type specimen, figured 

 by E-iitimeyer in the • Denkschr. schw. Ges. Nat.' vol. xix. 

 art. 3, pi. V. figs. 87-88 ; the specimen is not sufficiently 

 perfect to admit of exact comparison with Adapis.
