Zaglossus (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Zaglossus Since its discovery in 1876, specimens of the Long-beaked Spiny anteater of New Guinea have been rare in collections. Hitherto the osteology of but a single specimen has been completely known, and of the anatomy of the soft parts practically nothing has been published. NO less than five forms have been described, but the validity of most of these seems questionable, and even the genus itself is by some considered unworthy of recognition.
