  The

  of 
  the

  is 
  difficult

   a

  of 
  black, 
  reddish 
  brown, 
  broccoli 
  brown 
  and

   a

  The 
  skull 
  of 
  Brunnich's 
  specimen 
  is 
  in 
  the 
  Berlin 
  Museum, 
  the 
  

   type 
  itself 
  having 
  been 
  destroyed 
  long 
  since. 
  In 
  its 
  measurements 
  there 
  

   is 
  no 
  important 
  difference 
  from 
  those 
  given 
  above, 
  except 
  the 
  zygomatic 
  

   width 
  which 
  is 
  considerably 
  less. 
  Mr. 
  Grant, 
  as 
  quoted 
  by 
  Thomas 
  and 
  

   Schwann, 
  (1. 
  c.) 
  says 
  in 
  Zululand 
  this 
  baboon 
  is 
  difficult 
  to 
  secure, 
  and 
  

   more 
  often 
  heard 
  than 
  seen, 
  as 
  they 
  live 
  in 
  large 
  troops 
  in 
  the 
  thick 
  

   forest. 
  "They 
  feed 
  principally 
  on 
  fruit, 
  and 
  where 
  wild 
  fruit 
  abounds 
  

   they 
  can 
  sometimes 
  be 
  obtained 
  by 
  waiting 
  under 
  the 
  trees, 
  but 
  they 
  are 
  

   at 
  all 
  times 
  wonderfully 
  wary." 
  At 
  Knyswa 
  in 
  Cape 
  Colony, 
  Mr. 
  Grant 
  

   found 
  this 
  species 
  "in 
  large 
  troops 
  both 
  in 
  the 
  forest 
  and 
  on 
  the 
  

   Krantzes 
  along 
  the 
  coast. 
  It 
  is 
  exceedingly 
  wary 
  and 
  can 
  seldom 
  be 
  

   obtained; 
  at 
  times, 
  however, 
  they 
  are 
  very 
  bold, 
  and 
  do 
  considerable 
  

   damage 
  amongst 
  mealies 
  and 
  fruits." 
  

  

  Mr. 
  W. 
  L. 
  Sclater, 
  (1. 
  c.) 
  gives 
  the 
  following 
  account 
  of 
  this 
  

   baboon 
  furnished 
  him 
  by 
  Mr. 
  W. 
  Cloete 
  of 
  Waterfall 
  near 
  Grahams- 
  

   town, 
  South 
  Africa: 
  "The 
  Chacma 
  is 
  an 
  inhabitant 
  of 
  the 
  steep 
  and 
  

   rocky 
  Krantzes 
  which 
  abound 
  in 
  all 
  parts 
  of 
  Africa, 
  and 
  although 
  

   most 
  frequently 
  found 
  in 
  treeless 
  country, 
  is 
  a 
  very 
  good 
  tree 
  climber
