Notes
Content: Illegible artist monogram at lower right of image. Printed on border: "nat. size." "The pigmy flying-phalanger is confined to Queensland, New South Wales, and Victoria; and is reported to be very abundant in the neighbourhood of Port Jackson. Its food consists of honey and insects; and its agility in leaping from branch to branch is described as little short of marvellous." Written on border: "Acrobates pygmaea" Includes additional text.
