Abstract
IT is, we believe, unique to find monkeys cooperating with a botanist in collecting flowering and fruiting specimens of trees for botanical investigation. This, however, has been done in Malaya by Mr. Corner, the author of the very interesting book under review, and his trained Berok monkeys, one of which is figured on the cover of the book, have provided him with much valuable material which otherwise might have been unattainable.
