In point of size, colours, and general appear- 

 ance, this animal is considerably allied to the S. 

 Trepida, or Sajou of Buffon. But the remarkable 

 tufts of hair or horns on the head, which are very 

 distinctly visible in all the different specimens of 

 the animal, afford a sufficient mark of discrimina- 

 tion. The claws are longish and blunt. The ge- 

 neral colour of the Horned Monkey is a subferru- 

 ginous brown, lighter beneath and about the 

 shoulders : the top of the head and outsides of the 

 limbs of the tail blackish : the face reddish-brown 

 and covered with hair.
