Four-fingered monkey, coaita, spotted monkey, or black spider monkey. Ateles paniscus. "In Oxford Road," says Edwards, near Soho Square, I lately (AD1761) saw, at a house where they shew wild beasts, etc., a black monkey, something like a middle-sized black monkey: they called him a Spider Monkey, from the thinness and length of his limbs and tail.".
