LESSEil CAGUl MONKEY. 
calls Caltaia, that name standing in Plso 
nearer the figure of the Cagui than it's own 
proper name. Ludolphus, in his History of 
Ethiopia, or Abyssinia, has given two figures 
of this animal, which are descril^ecl in the 
English traiislation : he calls it Fonkes, or 
Guereza, but liis description does not at ail 
agree with the hgures; so that Edwards ima- 
gines this was met with in Holland, and sup- 
l^osed to be the Little Monkey described by 
Ludolphus, thougli it was really brought from 
Brasil, whiich was possessed by the Dutch at 
the time when that history was published. 
Klein has given a figure as large as life in his 
book De Quadruped; nut it's tail is of a 
greater length than Edwards ever observed any 
of these animals to have, t'nough he had seen 
five or six of tiieni alive. J^r. Parsons, in 
the Philosophical Transactions, Vol. xlvii. 
has given the best and most copious descrip- 
tion, of till s animal: but,** says f^dwards, 
*• tlic docl'./V had not the good luck to meet 
with a subjccl so vigorous and full of fur, as 
some of tliose which I saw after his was pub- 
lished. Lord Kingston's I saw, which was 
the smal'u'st and most sickly of all I have seen.
