 (Fig. 1 about 1/8 natural size) 

 (Figs. 2, 3 and 4 about 1/9 natural size) 



Illustrating subspecific character in simum of larger teeth than cottoni. 



Skulls of simum photographed with short focus lens and not strictly com- 

 parable with those of cottoni, which were taken by a lens having great depth 

 of focus. This distortion is well shown in simum by the carrying forward of 

 the premaxillse as far as the tip of the nasals.
