Abstract: | The case of an extremely limb-malformed Japanese monkey born in the Miyajima troop in 1970 is described. The limb defect is almost symmetrical on both sides. The forelimb lacks its hand, and the hindlimb appears as if it were only a small wart. No marked chromosomal abnormalities for this malformed monkey could be found. |
