Fryer collected 1 c? of this species from Miniopterus 

 sclireibersi at Peradeuiya, 30. i. 1912. It was previously 

 iinknowu from Ceylon. On the same date and at the same 

 place he obtained 'N. [L.) altotopa, Speiser, from the same 

 host-species, but whetlier from the same individual bat is 

 not recorded. In any case these two species have on several 

 occasions been found at the same time and place on 

 M. schreibersi (see Scott, 1913, op. cit., bottom of p, 93 and 

 p. 100).

This species was described by Rondani from a single 

 dried S from Java. The ? was described for the first 

 time by Speiser (/. c.) from specimens from Burma. 

 Fryer's material from Ceylon (whence the species is now for 

 the first time recorded) includes several specimens, which I 

 have been able to compare with Rondani's type and with 

 9 J and 6 ? (all dried) from Sumatra, these and the 

 type having been all kindly lent by Dr. R. Gestro from the 

 Genoa INIuseum. 



The following amplifications and modifications of earlier 

 descriptions are made principally from the three Ceylon 

 specimens in alcohol, though I have, of course, also examined 

 the dried specimens from Sumatra : — The thorax beneath is 

 longer than broad, bluntly rounded in front, with sides 

 diverging backwards so that the greatest breadth is reached 

 just before the middle legs ; the median longitudinal line is 

 not excavated behind ; the bristles on the hind margin are 

 scarcely any longer than those on the surface, in the middle 

 part they do not project over the margin at all, only at the 

 posterior angles are there some rather longer than those on
