Brilliant gold colour in Brasil, its native country ; 
It smells of musk, is a very tender animal, and is 
seldom brought to Europe alive. It has a round 
head, a nose a little pointed ; and the tip of its 
nose, and a circular space round its mouth, black ; 
its ears are hairy ; the hair on its body is short, 
Coolly, and fine * in the faded state in which it 
is seen in this country, of a yellow and brown 
colour ; the nails on its hands are fiat ; those on 
its feet like claws. 
From the gracefulness of its movements, the 
smallness of its size, the brilliant colour of its 
hair, the largeness and vivacity of its eyes, it has 
uniformly been preferred to all the other sapajous % 
it is indeed the most beautiful of this tribe. As 
the tail is less prehensile than that of the former 
species, it seems to form the shade between the 
sapajous and sagoins.
