$. caudata fusco-JIctvescens , subtus albida, facie incarnata, natibus 



cahris sanguineis rugosis. 

 Short-tailed yellowish-brown Baboon, whitish beneath} with 



flesh-coloured face, and large blood-red wrinkled callosities 



behind. 

 Simia erythrsea. Schreb. suppl. 

 Macaque a queue courte. Buff, suppl. J. p. 56. //. 13. 



This species occurs in the supplement to Buf- 

 fon, under the title of Macaque a queue courte, 

 and, except in size and the shortness of the tail, 

 seems extremely allied to the preceding animal: 

 it has also a great affinity to the & nemestrina, or 

 Pig-tailed Baboon. It was fifteen inches long: 

 the nose flattish, with a sort of sinking on the 

 upper part, owing to the projection of the 03 

 frontis : the iris of the eye yellowish : the ears 

 round and of a flesh-colour, having a small scol- 

 lop or insection on the back part, so as to appear 

 different from the Hare-lipped Monkey, to which, 

 except in having a short tail, it is also allied: its 

 face is flesh-coloured ; the callosities behind, and 

 the neighbouring space, of a blood-red, and 

 marked with strong wrinkles. The upper part of 

 the body was of a yellowish-green tinge, mixed 

 with a little grey. The outsides of the limbs 

 grey also. The under parts of body and limbs 

 whitish. The tail was seven inches. and two lines 

 long, and of a grey-colour.
