﻿SIMIA 
  175 
  

  

  sylvanus, 
  he 
  doubtless 
  supposing 
  there 
  were 
  two 
  tailless 
  monkeys 
  in 
  

   Africa, 
  as 
  he 
  does 
  not 
  cite 
  'Ceylon' 
  for 
  his 
  S. 
  inuus. 
  In 
  fact 
  he 
  dis- 
  

   tinguishes 
  them 
  from 
  each 
  other 
  by 
  giving 
  sylvanus 
  a 
  "capite 
  sub- 
  

   rotundo," 
  and 
  inuus 
  "capite 
  oblongo," 
  altogether 
  too 
  fine 
  a 
  distinction 
  

   to 
  apply 
  to 
  so 
  closely 
  allied 
  tailless 
  monkeys. 
  As 
  there 
  seems 
  to 
  be 
  

   no 
  reason 
  for 
  doubting 
  that 
  Simia 
  sylvanus 
  was 
  the 
  North 
  African 
  

   Macaque, 
  the 
  long 
  accepted 
  name 
  for 
  the 
  species, 
  inuus, 
  will 
  have 
  to 
  

   give 
  place 
  to 
  the 
  prior 
  claim 
  of 
  sylvanus 
  and 
  become 
  its 
  synonym.
