So f a r as Ailuropoda melaiioleuca is concerned, no description of the topographic anatomy of the central neural apparatus lias so far been presented, to the knowledge of the present writers.
The specimen here described was obtained from a mature female melanoleuca, P a n Dee, presented to the New York Zoological Society through United Chiria Relief by llmc.
