DENDROLAGUS URSINUS, miter, 
AND 
DENDROLAGUS INUSTUS, Miller. 
A FIGURE of each of these two very remarkable and highly interesting species of Tree Kangaroos has been given 
in the fine work now publishing by my friend M. Temminck, entitled “ Verhandelingen over de Natuurlijke geschie- 
denis der Nederlandsche overzeesche bezittingen,” &c.; but as the text appertaining to those plates has not yet appeared, 
I am unable to give any further account of them than has been conveyed to me in a letter received from M. Temminck, 
who says :— 
“ The two species were discovered by our traveller M. S. Müller during his researches in New Guinea, and who has pro- 
posed for them the names here given : they were found at Triton Bay, and also inhabit the interior of the country; they are 
arboreal in their habits, climbing trees with the utmost facility.” 
M. Temminck adds, that M. Miiller will shortly publish a highly interesting account of the habits and economy of 
these extraordinary animals, which will be given in the third part of this Monograph.
