  much 
  curved;

  over- 
  

   hanging

  The 
  Monkeys 
  of 
  Celebes 
  without 
  hairy 
  crest 
  resemble 
  the 
  

   Macaques 
  much 
  more 
  than 
  they 
  do 
  the 
  crested 
  or 
  black 
  Ape 
  of 
  that 
  

   island, 
  and 
  some 
  neighboring 
  ones. 
  They 
  have 
  short 
  thick-set 
  bodies, 
  

   with 
  rudimentary 
  tails, 
  and 
  judging 
  from 
  a 
  living 
  adult 
  in 
  the 
  Zoologi- 
  

   cal 
  Gardens 
  at 
  Kyoto, 
  Japan, 
  they 
  would 
  appear 
  to 
  reach 
  a 
  large 
  size. 
  

   Not 
  much 
  is 
  known 
  about 
  them, 
  and 
  adult 
  examples 
  are 
  very 
  rare 
  in 
  

   the 
  Museums 
  of 
  the 
  world.
