172 ON THE NEW-GUINEA MAMMALS. 



is a specimen from Andai, N. G. — Dr. Hagen procured this 

 species at Stefansort, German N. G. 



12. Syconycteris papuana Matschie. 



This bat belongs, like the foregoing species, to the 

 Macroglossiue-group; the name Syconycteris has been given 

 in 1899 by Matschie, very ad rem as I pointed out in "the 

 Notes from the Leyden Museum, 1901, p. 131.'" S. papuana 

 is known from Amboina, the Aroe-islands and N. G. 

 (Andai and Sorong in the Berlin-Museum and Andai in 

 the Dresden-Museum). 



13. Syconycteris crassa Thomas. 



I never saw^ a specimen of this species, created in 1895 

 by Oldfield Thomas for a Macroglossine-individual from 

 Fergusson-island. The species seems to live in the islands 

 eastern from New-Guinea and in N. G. ; in the south- 

 eastern part it has been collected at Ighibirei, on the 

 Kemp Welch-river, to the south of the Owen Stanley 

 Mountains, by Dr. Loria (Ann. Stor. Nat, di Genova, 

 1897, p. 608). 



14. Melonycteris melanops Dobson. 



Another rare member of the Macroglossine-group, as it 

 seems, from the same localities as the former species; 

 in the Berlin-Museum there is a young male-specimen 

 from N. G., Mac Cluer-bay, South-west N. G. (Gazelle- 

 expedition, Matschie, 1. c. p. 93). 



15. Rhinolophus fallax Andersen. 



Described after an adult male, the only specimen known, 

 in the collection of the Genoa-Museum ; it has been col- 

 lected at Ighibirei, on the Kemp Welch-river, South-eastern 

 N. G., by Dr. Loria (Ann. Mus. Genova, 1906, p. 173).
