Mr. Pennant describes this species as of a mid- 
dling size, and of a reddish colour on the upper 
parts, as if singed, and marked with white specks; 
the belly and chin whitish ; the tail very long. 
The Linnaean description differs. Linnseus says the 
animal is of the size of a large cat, and is blacl^;, 
spotted with white : the hind part of the back fer- 
ruginous: the face black: from the top of the 
nose a white line, passing over each eye to the 
ears in an arched direction: (this circumstance 
was probably the reason of the Linnsean name 
Diana, by which he has chosen to distinguish the 
animal:) the beard pointed, black above, white 
beneath, and placed on a kind of fatty tumor: 
breast and throat white: from the rump across 
the thighs a white line : tail long, straight^ and 
black : ears and feet of the same colour : canine 
teeth large.
