EDITORS COMMENTS
Plate 36 from Recherches pour servir a l'histoire naturelle des Mammifères, Vols. 1-4 (1868-74) by Dr. Henri Milne-Edwards (1800-1885) and Dr. Alphonse Milne-Edwards (1835-1905) presents a captivating illustration of the Rhinopithecus roxellanae, commonly known as the snub-nosed monkey. This exquisite drawing, showcasing the golden snub-nosed monkey in its natural Eastern Asian habitat, is a testament to the meticulous work of the Milne-Edwards brothers in documenting the natural world during the 19th century. The Rhinopithecus roxellanae, native to China, is a member of the Cercopithecidae family, order Primates, and suborder Anthropoidea. This Old World monkey is further classified under the superfamily Cercopithecoidea, infraorder Simiiformes, and suborder Haplorhini. The monkey's distinctive features include its short, upturned nose and golden fur, which provides excellent camouflage in its forested environment. The Milne-Edwards brothers' groundbreaking work on mammals, including this illustration of the golden snub-nosed monkey, significantly contributed to the scientific understanding of the natural history of mammals, particularly in the Eastern Asian region. Their comprehensive documentation of various species, including this rare and fascinating monkey, continues to be an essential resource for researchers and scholars today. This illustration, with its intricate details and lifelike quality, offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the natural history of the golden snub-nosed monkey and the rich biodiversity of Eastern Asia during the 19th century.
