   In 
  this 
  work 
  but 
  one 
  species 
  of 
  Cynopithecus 
  is 
  recognized, 
  

   C. 
  niger 
  Desmarest. 
  The 
  Author 
  remarks 
  upon 
  the 
  variation 
  

   in 
  color 
  of 
  examples 
  dwelling 
  at 
  different 
  places 
  in 
  northern 
  

   Celebes, 
  and 
  in 
  the 
  Island 
  of 
  Batchian, 
  also 
  on 
  the 
  different 
  

   shape 
  of 
  the 
  callosities. 
  He, 
  however, 
  regards 
  these 
  as 
  merely 
  

   individual 
  variations, 
  and 
  decides 
  that 
  the 
  two 
  forms, 
  niger 
  

   and 
  nigrescens, 
  the 
  only 
  ones 
  known 
  to 
  him, 
  represent 
  but 
  

   one 
  and 
  the 
  same 
  species; 
  and 
  in 
  the 
  more 
  than 
  thirty 
  years 
  

   that 
  have 
  elapsed 
  since 
  his 
  work 
  appeared, 
  sufficient 
  additional 
  

   knowledge 
  of 
  these 
  Apes 
  has 
  not 
  been 
  acquired 
  to 
  enable 
  us 
  to 
  

   prove 
  that 
  Schlegel 
  was 
  not 
  quite 
  correct 
  in 
  the 
  decision 
  he 
  

   gave.

  In 
  his 
  paper 
  on 
  the 
  mammals 
  of 
  Halmahera, 
  Batchian 
  and 
  

   North 
  Celebes, 
  the 
  Author 
  reviews 
  the 
  species 
  of 
  the 
  genus 
  

   Cynopithecus, 
  but 
  placed 
  in 
  Papio, 
  and 
  criticizes 
  to 
  some 
  

   extent, 
  the 
  papers 
  of 
  A. 
  B. 
  Meyer 
  previously 
  published 
  on 
  the 
  

   same 
  animals. 
  He 
  first 
  discusses 
  the 
  relationship 
  of 
  Cyno- 
  

   pithecus 
  and 
  Macacus, 
  and 
  allied 
  genera, 
  and 
  the 
  species 
  

   properly 
  belonging 
  to 
  each, 
  and 
  their 
  geographical 
  distribution. 
  

   As 
  our 
  present 
  investigation 
  is 
  mainly 
  with 
  the 
  species 
  of
