seems to be longer. The two upper molars that are present are very large, the 
first measuring 12‘5 mm. and the second 15‘6 ; in the lower jaw the same great size 
prevails, thus the first molar is 12 mm. and the second 14’5. In the adult female 
P. doguera from Abyssinia, collected by Eiippell, the following are the measurements 
of these teeth: the first molar is 11 mm. and the second 12-5 in both upper and 
lower jaws. The much larger size of the teeth of the female P. heuglini as compared 
with the corresponding teeth of the female P. doguera supports the supposition 
of these two forms being possibly racially distinct. 
The Gynocephalus anuUs, No. 719, male juv., Sennaar, Heuglin, 1855, is unquestion¬ 
ably a young example of the species found in the Shilluk Islands. The skull is that 
of a young animal with its milk-dentition. Even at this age the colour of the fur is 
exactly like that of the adult, but rather richer yellow. The specimen from snout to 
vent measures 440 mm., tail 400, height at shoulder 320. 
Munich Museum, 
Adult male of Papio doguera, Pucheran and Schimper. 
“ Schimper, Abyssinia,” appears on the under side of the stand, in Matschie’s hand¬ 
writing. In pencil “ No. 48 ” is written, and the same number occurs on the skull. 
This specimen, as it now appears, has shorter legs than the male in Stuttgart from 
the Shilluk Islands, but reliance cannot be placed on this character in a stufied 
specimen. The colour is rather rich yellow and black, due to the yellow subterminal 
band and the black tips to the hairs ; these colours falling together, the yellow by 
itself and the black by itself, gives rise to small irregularly distributed patches of 
yellow and black. This arrangement is the same as in the Shilluk baboon, but the 
yellow of the Abyssinian baboons is brighter; indeed, the yellow hue generally over 
the body of the Abyssinian baboons of this species is more vivid than in specimens 
from the Valley of the Nile. 
The fur is dark blackish brown below and on the shoulder, where the longest hair 
attains to 170 mm. in length ; the dark basal portion is 130 mm., being succeeded by a 
yellow band about 10 mm. in length or somewhat more, and terminating in a black tip 
about 30 mm. long. On the rump and outsides of the thighs the hair averages from 30 
to 40 mm. long, and on the vertex between 60 and 60 mm. On the front of the 
shoulder it is from 70 to 90 mm., and on the front of the fore leg 30 to 40 mm. On 
the front of the hind legit is 50 to 60 mm. long. The hairs on the tail generally are 
about 23 mm. long, on the base, however, they vary from 50 to 60 mm. in length; 
also equally long hairs occur near the tip, tending to form a pencil. 
The side of the muzzle is very sparsely covered with straggling pale hairs, but 
behind the malar region it is well clad with shortish yellow-grey hairs, those behind
