CALAGO. 
Audeb. Singes, &c. 
This rare animal is a native of Senegal, and seems 
to have been first discovered by Adanson. It inha¬ 
bits trees, in the hollows of which it is said to pre¬ 
pare its nest, lining it with leaves and grass. It 
feeds principally on insects, which it catches with 
wonderful dexterity. Its size is nearly that of a 
C 2 common.
