SUMMARY OF TRE INDIAN MAMMAL SURVEY. 28 



Fam% VI. — EMBALLONURID.E. 



This Family contains three genera which occur within our 

 limits; they may be distinguished as follows : — 



Key to the genera of the Emballokurid^. 



A. — Upper incisors 2-2 ... ... ... I. Emballonura. 



B. — Upper incisors 1-1. 



a. Radio- metacarpal pouch present ... 11. Taphozous. 



6. No radio-metacarpal pouch present. III. Saccolaimus. 



Gen. I. — Emballonura. 



There is only one species within 

 No. 217. semicaudatajVeale. our limits. This name belongs to 



a Polynesian species and cannot be 

 used for the Indian animal. Miller established a species, penin- 

 sularis, from Trong, but Thomas later showed (J. B. N. H. S., xxiii, 

 p. 706, 1915) that it could not be separated from moniicola, 

 Temm., and that name must therefore be used here.

Thomas has made sub-species. 

 No. 218. melanopogon , secatus and nudaster, for the Indian 



Temm. representatives of theohaldi and the 

 No. 219. theohaldi, Dobs. Burmese form of kac/ihensis respec- 

 No. 220. longimamts, tively (J. B. N. H. S. xxiv., p. 59, 



Hardw. 60, 1915) and has recognised the

 ed in a key as follows : —
