Horned Monkey. Pennant Quadr. p. zz\* 



In point of size, colours^ and general appear- 

 ance^ this animal is considerably allied^ to the S. 

 Trepida, or Sajou of Buffon. Biit 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 

 shoulderg; the top of the head and outsides of the 

 limbs «f the tail blackish : the face reddish-brown 

 and covered with hair*
