Bemarks. — PipistreUus huhlii is easily recognizable by the 

 form and relative size of the upper incisors. Externally it may 

 usually be known by the sharply defined whiti.sh border to the 

 wing membrane, though too much reliance should not be placed 

 on this character alone. Many specimens from Sardinia are 

 lighter in colour than those from the mainland. These represent 

 the albolimhatus of Kiister. Normally coloured examples also 

 occur ; and in the absence of adequate material it has seemed 

 preferable for the time being not to attempt to define the insular 

 form.
