REMARKS

Two specimens in a bad state of preservation were recovered from Lamotte’s MNHN collections and compared with one specimen from Seredou ( Guinea). Morphometrically, the Nimba specimens fit well with the variability present in this species and with Coe’s (1975) specimens ( Table 11 View TABLE ). They display a brown grey dorsal and ventral pelage. The skull is massive with a squarish braincase. The tympanic bullae are large and inflated in the mastoid region. The nasal bone is narrow and its suture with the premaxillary bone rectilinear. The incisors are opisthodont ( Table 12 View TABLE ).
