13.4 (12); maxillary toothrow (exclusive of incisors), 7.6 (6.4); 

 frout of cauiue to back of second molar, 7.2 (6); maudibular 

 toothrow (exclusive of incisors), 8 (6.8). 



Specimens Examined. — Four, all from the type locality. 



Remarks. — Stenoderma lucice is readily distinguishable from aS. 

 montserratense by its smaller size and white-spotted shoulder, and 

 from S. nichollsi by its larger size, heavier teeth, and distinctly 

 bifid inner upper incisors. 



Hemiderma tricolor f^p. nov. 



Tiipe.—XdnW. ? (skin and skull), No. 114,005, United States 

 National Museum. Collected in cave at Sapucay, Paraguay, 

 December 5, 1901, by William Foster, Original number, -589. 



Characters. — Size and general appearance as in Hemiderma per- 

 spicillatum, but fur longer and more silky in texture and the three 

 color bands on the hairs of back strongly contrasted. 



Color. —Hairs of dorsal surface with three sharply defined color 

 bands. Beginning at base these are (a) hair-brown, much darker 

 than that of Kidgway, 4 mm. ; (6) grayish- white, 5 mm. ; and 

 (e) hair-brown like that of base, 2 mm. The extreme tips show a 

 faint silv^ery-gray wash which varies in intensity according to light. 

 As the fur is loo.se and silky in texture and everywhere glossy and 

 variable with light the combination of colors is difficult to describe. 

 On crown of head, sides of neck and region between and imme- 

 diately behind shoulders the grayish-white appears conspicuously at 

 surface, but elsewhere the hair-brown is in excess. The slightest 

 disarrangement of the hairs brings the light band prominently into 

 view. The color pattern of the back may be traced across under 

 surface of neck, though much dulled. On chest and belly the basal 

 area is a dull brownish slate color, succeeded by a narrow silvery- 

 grayish band and a still narrower terminal strip of broccoli-brown. 

 The extreme tips have the same gloss as those of the back, but 

 the general color is broccoli-brown. 



Skull and Teeth. — The skull and teeth do not differ appreciably 

 from those of Hemiderma perspicillatum. 



Measurements. — External measurements of type : Head and body, 

 68;" tibia, 16.4; foot, 13 (11); forearm, 42; thumb, 13; second 

 finger, 32; third finger, 91; fourth finger, 65; fifth finger, 66;
