Differential characters. — Similar to C. b. brachyotis, but skull 

 averaging slightly heavier, external dimensions somewhat larger. 



The characters pointed out above are conspicuous only in a 

 series of specimens of both races ; single individuals are often 

 difficult or impossible to allocate. The palate of javanicus 

 averages decidedly broader than in brachj/otis (compare measure- 

 ments of breadth across external .surfaces of m'-m\ below); the 

 forearm of the largest specimens is markedly longer than in the 

 largest brachyotis, that of the smallest specimens almost exactly 

 as in an average brachyotis. Subjoined some comparative measure- 

 ments of C b. brachyotis, javctnicus, insularum, and ceylonensis : — 



brachyotis. javanicus. insularum. ceylonensis.
