On July 3, in the ravine to the east of La Guaira, a native was met 
who, in answer to questions, stated that he knew where there were 
some ])ats in a cave near by. Upon being asked to point out the 
place, he went to a pile of vine-covered, waterworn bowlders 20 feet 
away and, kneeling down, parted the leaves and revealed a small open- 
ing several feet wide and IS inches high. By Ij^ing prone and waiting 
until the eyes grew accustomed to the faint light it was seen that the 
opening extended al)out 4 feet under the bowlder and that a small 
cluster of l)ats of this species was clinging to the stone above. When 
disturl)ed they flew out, but some returned and others lit under over- 
hanging stones near by. Two were shot and two caught in the butter- 
fly net. One female was carrying a large-sized young. 
At San Julian they were found in little communities of not over six 
individuals and in every case were in most insignificant little openings, 
usually beneath waterworn bowlders. 
A pair were taken in a similar position at El Valle, island of Mar- 
garita, Venezuela, by Captain Robinson on July 12, 1895. The female 
was well advanced in pregnancy. 
All of th(> females taken at San Julian during the last week of July 
and first w^H^k of August were nursing w'ell-grown young.
