lievidrkK. — Myotis nixapolus is readily distinguishable from M. iiiijrirdUH 

 by its much lighter color, especially on the underparts. Its color sug- 

 gests that of dull specimens of M. (■aUforidcux though the latter may 

 always be recognized by the conspicuously bicolor fur of the back.

C'hara(irr>i. — In appearance similar to (UuKXiiphngd hingirontrtu ^lillei-* 

 from the Santa Marta Mountains, Colombia, but paler in color. Skull 

 narrower and relati\ely much more elongate than that of the Columbian 

 species. Incisors well developed, nearly double as large as in <t. sm-- 

 iri.ii<i,\ the upper \er>- strongly projecting forward. 



Edi-.'i. — The ears are moderately long, laid forAvard they extend about 

 half way from eye to tip of muzzle. Anterior border of conch strongly 

 convex at base, then very gently convex to rather broadly rounded tip. 

 Posterior border straight to middle, then slightly and evenly convex to 

 faint notch marking boundary of very narrow and rudimentary unthick- 

 ened antitragus. The posterior border terminates slightly in front of 

 anterior border and (i mm. behind angle of mouth, l^oth surfaces of ear 

 smooth, the inner, howexer, wilh six or seven small but distinct cross 

 ridges near posterior border, and a few inconspicuous scattered hairs. 

 Tragus upright, acutely pointed, sometimes deeply notched at lip. An- 

 terior ))or(ler perceptibly thickened, nearly straight, slightly convex 

 above. I'oint acute. Posterior border irregularly convex, occasionally 

 so narrowly and deeply notched above that the tip appears bitid. < )p- 

 posite anterior base there is a broad shallow notch, and below this the 

 posterior border is more abruptly convex to base.
