COLLECTION OF BATS, 281 
The largest specimen has the forearm 1,6 inches (40 mm.), 
the young female 1,05 inch. (26,25 mm.). 
Molossus abrasus Temminck. 
Three adult females. 
Vampyrus spectrum Linnaeus. 
One adult male. 
Phyllostoma hastatum Pallas. 
One adult male. 
The forearm measures 3,3 inches (82,5 mm.). 
Carollia brevicauda Wied. 
One adult female. 
Rhinophylla pumilio Peters. 
Two adult females. 
It seems to be an exceedingly rare species, as besides 
the type (a dried skin) described by Peters, the specimen 
described by Dobson and the specimens in the Leyden Mu- 
seum there have no other been recorded, as far as I am 
aware. Our specimens have the forearm of the size of Pe- 
ter’s specimen, therefore somewhat larger than in Dobson’s 
individual. I add to the excellent description given by the 
latter author that the white skin covering the armbones 
and the white claws contrast strikingly with the dark co- 
lored wing-membranes and feet. 
Glossophaga soricina Pallas. 
Six adult male specimens. 
Artibeus planirostris Spix. 
Twenty-five adult and young males and females. 
Artibeus quadrivittatus Peters. 
One adult female specimen.
