</em Department of Ornithology and Mammalogy, J. A. Allen, Curator > Dear Prof. Ward : -

    I send herewith a list

of our desiderata of Old World Monkeys, and also a list of the species already in the Museum. I gave the names of the species as they stand in Trouissart's "List", and also the equivalent names of Gray's Cataogue.

    Hoping you will spare no pains

to supply the desiderata at the earliest possible opportunity. Very truly yours J. A. Allen
