and large as those of _Gorilla Gina_. The transverse processes of the first lumbar vertebræ are remarkable for their length, and in their transverse extension reach almost to the angle of the last rib. In this supposed variety of the gorilla the iliac crest is more convex, the tuberosity of the ischium is somewhat more everted, the neck of the femur is more oblique, the os calcis is slenderer, and its lower surface is more arched. The clavicle appears to be shorter and less curved: the scapula is more arched near its inner border; its outer border is distinctly concave, while in _Gorilla Gina_ it is prominently convex. The base of the acromion process is larger, and the olecranon fossa of the humerus is perforated. The bones of the forearm and hand, as well as of the shank and foot, are more slender, and their prominences and inequalities are less marked. The smaller bulk of the fore and hind limbs corresponds with the comparative smallness of the head. The colouring, grey and brown on the trunk, black on the limbs, with red patches on the head, and reddish in the pubic region, does not essentially differ from that which has been described by different authors in the case of other skins which have indeed been artificially restored. But the hide essentially differs from that of other specimens in the sharp division of the brown colouring of the belly from the grey of the back, by the reddish tint of the hair which clothes the pubic region, and also in the abundant growth of hair which so closely encircles the cheeks and chin. But, according to our authorities, the most remarkable difference consists in the fact that the whole of the back is covered with long, thick hair, while in _Gorilla Gina_ this part is either bare or only covered with short hair, partly worn away. Hence these authors conclude that this species, which they assert to be new, and have named _Gorilla Mayema_, from the negro chief of that name, does not rest its back against a tree so often as the _Gorilla Gina_, but leads a more arboreal life, climbing from tree to tree.[95]
