to man, since they are equally absent in all the American apes, | 
and in all the LemUroids. | 
One of the most grotesque conceptions suggested by Mr. j 
Darwin is that of the nakedness of man, and especially of 
woman, having been produced by the gradual extension over 
the body (through the persistent choice of more and more 
hairless spouses) of an incipient local nakedness like that now 
existing in certain apes.* No zoological facts known to the 
author afford the slightest basis for this bizarre hypothesis. 
No single ape or Lemuroid has so exclusive and preponderate a 
development of hair on the head aud face as exists in most men.
