Graj', should therefore stand as the author of the name. The type 

 of the species (ilt. Lavinia, Ceylon, given to Kelaart by the Kev. 

 Dr. Macvicar) is iu the Calcutta Museum. The British Museum 

 specimen 52.5.9.10 is a metatype.

 Add the following species : — 



5 bis. Rousettus shortridgei, Thos. 6/- Wroujht. 



Rousettus shortridgei, ThoDius Sf Wrovghton, Abstr. P. Z. S. n. 68, 

 p. 19 (23 March, 1909 : prelim, description) ; iid., P. Z. S. 1909, 

 p. 374 (Aug. 1909: Kahputjang). 



Diagnosis. — Allied to R. Jeschenaulti, but larger, and with rela- 

 tively conspicuously broader rostrum and palate. Bah. Java (thus 

 far known only from Kaliputjang). 



m^ elliptical, almost twice as long as broad (as in R. lescJtenaulti; 

 in a. amplexicaudaius and allied forms oval or elliptical oval, i. e. 

 breadth of tooth equal to from two-thirds to five-sixths its length). 



Skull, total length ■42-5 mm. (in JescheimuJti 37-41 "5), across 

 crowns of m"-m^ 12-8 (11-12), least breadth between p*-p^ 7"8 

 (5-8-6-3), c-m^ (crowns) 16-3 (14-15-7), forearm 91 (80-5-87-5), 

 third metacarpal 59 (49-54). For more detailed measurements of 

 both species see pp. 829-831. 



Colour (type, c? ad. skin, March). — Essentially as B. lesche- 

 naulti. Back dark brown, approaching mummy-brown, with paler 

 bases to the hairs ; rump and nape of neck much paler than back, 

 almost wood-brown ; head similar to back or rather darker. Fore- 

 neck Isabella ; neck-tufts very small and scarcely differing iu colour 

 from surrounding fur ; breast and belly dull broccoli-brown, flanks 

 suffused with pale fawn. 



Remarks. — This is the largest eastern species of Rousettus, hence 

 easily distinguished from the other form of the genus inhabiting 

 Java, R. minor, which is one of the smallest.

The following is a description from fresh material (see p. 44, 

 footnote, and list of specimens infra) of this hitherto imperfectly 

 known form : — 



Diagnosis. — As R. amjyU.vicaudatus, but averaging in every 

 respect conspicuously smaller. Similar in size to (or averaging 

 very little larger than) R. hrachyotis, which however differs by the 

 greater average breadth of its cheek-teeth (particularly p^, m', p,, 

 m,, and xa-,). Hah. Java.
