Monkeys

Focusing on the characteristics and geographical distribution of various monkey species, this article by Alfred Russel Wallace provides an insightful look into primate biology. Originally published in 1882, it reflects Wallace's extensive exploration and study of natural history, particularly during his time in the Amazon rainforest. His experiences and observations not only contributed to his understanding of evolution but also to the broader field of natural sciences, solidifying his legacy as a pivotal figure alongside Darwin in the development of evolutionary theory.
