PHILIPPINE MONKEY. 
MAGU^ she BOOT IndoTum. 
Cercopithecus ex Luzonis minimus. Camel Mss. Br. Mus, 
Magnitudinem, quee Gliris est^ icon exprimit^ 
et communiter adhuc minor, & gracilior est. 
Facies leonina : oculi rubri, magni^ rotundi^ ut 
noctu2e, nunquam aut raro conniventes : aures 
pellucidse^ depiles. Pilus murium luteolus aut 
aureolus. Gesticulationes lepidas ut Simise. Cau- 
da et pedes posterius longitudinis reliqui corporis. 
Raro interdiu apparet, hinc eum cascutire putant. 
Progreditur ordinari^ saltando, et restrorsum vel 
in obliquum velocius quam antrorsum. N arrant 
vivere carbone, &c. sed falsum est, cum ficu In- 
dica^ et aliis vescatur fructibus. 
L. A sedens^ et comedens, ut Siniius dextra. 
jB arborem scandens. 
C sedens et terrens, cum timet. 
" D incedens cum prole^ quam ad ventrem, 
plantse volubilis Pamago funiculis alligatam su- 
gientem gerit. Pamago vero Indi ad recidivas 
commendant." Camel. Mss. torn. 6. Mus. Brit. 
The figure shews the size of the animal, 
which is that of a GUs or Loir and it is often 
seen still smaller : the face is like that of a lion : 
the eyes red, large, and rounds like those of an 
owl ; and never, or but rarely, closing : the ears 
pellucid and void of hair : the fur mouse-hke, and 
of a yellowish or gold-coloured cast. Its motions 
are lively, like those of a monkey. The tail and 
hind feet are of the length of the rest of the body. 
* The greater Dormouse, or garden Squirrel.
