Abstract
IN the report on the scientific meeting of the Royal Dublin Society on November 20, in NATURE of December 5, 1895, it is stated that I placed Pithecanthropus in the genealogical tree, drawn by Prof. Cunningham, below the point of divarication of the Anthropoid apes from the human line. This indeed I did. But this statement could be misleading as to my real views on the genealogy of Pithecanthropus, such as I stated them already on p. 38 of my original memoir (“Pithecanthropus erectus, Eine menschenähnliche Uebergangsform aus Java,” Batavia, 1894), and more fully at the last meeting of the Anthropological Institute of Great Britain and Ireland, on November 25.
