The body of the Mustache is about a foot in 
length, and the tail about a foot and half. The 
general colour of the animal is reddish-cinereous, 
the head inclining to yellowish, but mixed or 
shaded with black. The under parts are paler 
than the upper: the upper half of the tail is of 
the same colour with the body; the remainder 
yellowish. The face is bare and of a blueish 
black ; the nose blunt, with a dilated transverse 
white patch immediately below it : the edges of 
both lips and the space round the eyes black : on 
the cheeks before the ears are two large tufts of 
yellowish hairs like mustaches: the ears round 
and tufted with whitish hairs: the hair on the 
top of the head somewhat upright. In the 
Linnasan description of this species mention is 
made of a transverse crescent-shaped band over 
the eye-brows: it is also added, that the eyelids 
are white; but in this description Linnaeus seems 
to have confounded it with the preceding species, 
or rather to have considered it in the light of a 
variety.
