  The 
  type 
  of 
  E. 
  Geoffroy's 
  species 
  is 
  not 
  to 
  be 
  found 
  in 
  the 
  Paris 
  

   Museum, 
  the 
  oldest 
  there 
  being 
  one 
  which 
  died 
  in 
  the 
  Menagerie 
  in 
  

   1821, 
  nine 
  years 
  after 
  the 
  species 
  was 
  described, 
  but 
  no 
  indication 
  

   given 
  as 
  to 
  whether 
  it 
  was 
  the 
  type 
  or 
  not. 
  The 
  type 
  of 
  C. 
  atys 
  Aude- 
  

   bert 
  is 
  in 
  the 
  Paris 
  Museum, 
  a 
  perfectly 
  white 
  animal, 
  with 
  no 
  locality 
  

   save 
  'Afrique 
  occidentale/ 
  and 
  half 
  the 
  tail 
  gone. 
  It 
  may 
  be 
  C. 
  

   ^thiops, 
  albino, 
  but 
  no 
  accurate 
  determination 
  is 
  possible. 
  Mr. 
  

   Pocock 
  contends 
  (1. 
  c.) 
  that 
  the 
  name 
  ^ethiops 
  cannot 
  be 
  given 
  to 
  a 
  

   Mangabey 
  because 
  Linnaeus 
  had 
  already 
  employed 
  the 
  name 
  in 
  1758.
