It is .stated by Ander.sen {loc. cit., p. 609) that the relatively 

 .smaller ears (13-18 mm.) are the only characters by which the races 

 of C. brachyotis can be distinguished from those of C. sjjhinx 

 (18-20 mm.). The above four specimens have the ear averaging 19.6 

 measured in the flesh and 17 mm. when dry. Fi^om the balance of 

 other measurements it must however be considered that these 

 examples are still within the dimensions which indicate inclusion in 

 C. h. angulatus, but at the same time they appear to be of greater 

 size than more southern specimens and point to the conclusion that 

 in the locality of Bandon (J. brachyotis is commencing to intergrade 

 with C. sphinx. It would perhaps be more logical to regard 

 C. angulatus as a sub-species of the latter rather than the fox-mer 

 species.
