442 Mr. 0. Tliomas on new 



Type. Adult female. B.M. no. 97. 4. 18. 22. Collected 

 by A. H. Everett. 



Tins species is a large ally of K. hardwichei, and lias 

 nothing of the peculiar increase in size of the canines charac- 

 teristic of K. myi'ella. 



Emhallonura stresemanni , sp. n. 



Most nearly allied to E. raffrayana, Dobs., but the skull 

 larger and the ears thinner, narrower, and more pointed. 



General characters as in raffrayana^ the tragus similarly 

 truncated and nearly parallel-sided. Nostrils circular, far 

 apart, the notch between them unusually deep, so that they 

 are more distinctly tubular than in other species. Ears 

 slender, narrow, tiie inner margin very slightly convex, the 

 tip narrowly rounded, the outer margin straight or faintly 

 concave above, then convex, with a well-detined basal lobe, 

 separated by a distinct notch. 



Skull very similar to that of E. raffrayana, but larger 

 throughout. Muzzle broad, not specially inflated laterally ; 

 frontal region with a broad median groove running back to 

 the level of the intertemporal constriction. Basisphenoid 

 concavity divided into two by a single median ridge, but not 

 into four by the presence of two supplementary lateral ridges, 

 as is the case in the single skull of E, raffrayana. 



Dimensions of the type (measured on the spirit-speci- 

 men) : — 



Forearm 41 mm. 



Head and body 46 ; tail 6 ; ear 13*5 ; tragus on inner 

 edge 3*6; third finger, metacarpus 3G*5, first phalanx 10 ; 

 lower leg and hind foot (c. u.) 24" 5. 



Skull : greatest length 16 ; basi-sinual length 12*2 ; ante- 

 rior breadth 7*6 ; breadth of brain-case 7'2 ; front of canine 

 to back of m^ 5*3. 



Hah. Mt. Lumutu, Western Ceram. 



Type. Adult female. B.M. no. 13. 3. 6. 29. Collected 

 and presented by Herr E. Sfrcsemann. Five specimens, all 

 females. 



This species is distinguished from E. raffrayana, to which 

 alone it is related, by its comparatively long and narrow ears 

 and its larger skull. 



I may note, on the authority of Prof. Troucssart, that the 

 locality given by Dobson for E. raffrayana, (jlilolo, is an 

 error, and that its true locality is JMefor Island, Geclvink 

 Bay, Western Kew Guinea. One of the typical specimens 

 is iu the British Museum.
