  length 
  of

  canines,

  ;

   68; 
  length

  Since 
  Linnaeus 
  described 
  the 
  present 
  species, 
  the 
  name 
  which 
  he 
  

   gave 
  to 
  it, 
  diana, 
  has 
  been 
  conferred 
  upon 
  the 
  wrong 
  animal 
  by 
  nearly 
  

   all 
  writers. 
  Dr. 
  Jentink, 
  (1. 
  c.) 
  however, 
  in 
  his 
  paper 
  corrected 
  the 
  

   error 
  that 
  existed 
  for 
  so 
  long 
  a 
  time, 
  and 
  proved 
  that 
  true 
  diana 
  was 
  

   the 
  monkey 
  with 
  a 
  short 
  beard, 
  black 
  at 
  the 
  base 
  and 
  white 
  at 
  the 
  ends, 
  

   that 
  it 
  had 
  tufted 
  ears, 
  and 
  the 
  inner 
  side 
  of 
  the 
  thighs, 
  and 
  anal 
  region 
  

   bright 
  bay; 
  the 
  one 
  named 
  L. 
  roloway, 
  heretofore 
  called 
  diana 
  by 
  

   many 
  mammalogists, 
  is 
  the 
  monkey 
  with 
  a 
  long 
  pure 
  white 
  beard, 
  and 
  

   the 
  inner 
  side 
  of 
  thighs 
  white 
  or 
  pale 
  orange, 
  and 
  the 
  ears 
  without 
  

   tufts.
