Note 145 — Chapter XVI · THE LEMUROIDA (concluded)—THE GALAGOS[129]
Reading edition
The simplicity of this classification is its great merit. The student will, however, find many other genera mentioned in books or placed before the specific names in museums. Thus, the beautiful Lemuroids in the British Museum of our genus Indris are called Propithecus, when the animals have tails, and the genus Lemur is termed Varecia. The genus Galago includes the animals called by some zoologists Otolicnus and Otogale, &c.
