FLOCKY MAUCAUCO. 
The hair is very soft, curled, and crispy » 
whence obviously originates the specific name 
of this animal. 
In the Count De Cepede's Additions t» 
BufFon's History of Quadrupeds, two Mau- 
caucos are described and figured, which Dn 
Shaw considers as varieties of this species. 
These are, the " Petit Makis Gris," or Little 
Grey Maucauco ; and what the Count De 
Cepede denominates, simply, " Autre Es- 
pece de Maki," or. Another Species of Mau*- 
cauco. 
The first of these, or the Little Grey Mau- 
cauco, the Count De Cepede says, is a pretty 
little animal, which was brought from Mada- 
gascar by Monsieur Sonnerat. The entire 
body, except the face, hands, and feqt, is co- 
vered with a thick woolly fur, of a greyish 
colour, and very soft to the touch. The tail 
is very long, and covered with similar fur. 
This animal, in it's form and actions, as well 
as in the agility of its motions, seems greatly 
allied to the Maucaucos : but, it stands not so 
high on it's legs ; though, in both, tlie fore- 
legs
