is of a uniform brown , without annulations and the naked face black. 
The locality of this Macaque is not accurately known”, 
Gray *) described a supposed new ape as Macacus inornafcus as fol* 
lows: „The tail radimen tary, scarcely to be distinguished. Buttocks 
callous, surrounded by a large naked red space, which is interrup- 
ted above by a narrow hairy streak to the base of the tail. Face and 
ears naked, black nose flat. Head covered with hair, regularly direc- 
ted backwards; the hair of the hinder part of the head rather elongate , 
not forming any crest. Für blackish brown , nearly uniform. Hair soft , 
one-coloured , forehead, frontal band and hands black, the hinder part 
of the thigh greyish white”. 
Really this is Macacus maurus F. Cuv. as already stated by Murie 1 2 ). 
As locality Gray names „Borneo?” and adds: „This not full grown 
„female was purchased from the wife of a sailor, who had brought it 
„from Borneo”. 
Solater 3 ) writes then : „In August last Mr. W. Jamrach deposited 
in the Society’s gardens three monkeys of this species (maurus) along 
with two of M. ocreatus and six of the so-called Cynopithecus niger”. 
„It is unfortunate that we do not yet with certainty know the 
exact locality of this Macaque. But I think it is probably Borneo, as 
already conjectured by Dr. Gray”. 
„This Macaque is of exactely the same forme as M. ocreatus and the 
young animals of the two species are so mucli alike, that one of Mr. 
Jamrach's specimens, supposed when it was deposited to be M. mau- 
rus, has since turned out to be M. ocreatus”. 
Now we have here already an increasing certainty about the loca- 
lity Borneo without any new argument. On the contrary: the two 
specimens of Macacus ocreatus and the six Cynopithecus niger that 
were deposited along with the three maurus are real Celebesian ani- 
mals and make it not so very improbable that the three so-called 
maurus came with them from Celebes too. 
The question about the locality is settled in the following paper on 
M. maurus by Murie 4 ) entitled: „Observations on the Macaques. 
I. The Bornean ape”. After this title]there seems to be no more question
