COMMENT: Controversy exists regarding the use of Metachirus ; see Pine, 1973, Proc. Biol. Soc. Wash., 86:391-402. Its usage here follows Tate, 1939, Bull. Am. Mus. Nat. Hist., 76:161-162; Haltenorth, 1958:17; Husson, 1978:24-28; and Corbet and Hill, 1980:9. Hall, 1981:17, employed the name Philander for this genus; but see comments under Philander .
