168 Mr. O. Thomas on a new 
quite to the base of the interfemoral. Structure of nose-leaf, 
ear, and tragus apparently, so far as can be judged from a 
skin, quite as in V. Uineatus and vittatus. ar-conch mar- 
gined with white anteriorly. 
Fur on the upper surface extending along the arms to the 
middle of the forearm, and on the wings as far as a line from 
the elbow to the middle of the femur. Interfemoral mem- 
brane and hind limbs thinly hairy. 
Skull, except in its smaller size, very like that of V. vittatus, 
broader and heavier in proportion than that of V. lineatus. 
Dental formula :—I. 3, C. ap P. 2, M. 3x 2=30. 
Teeth (figs. 1-3).—Outer upper incisors well developed, filling 
up the space between the 
canmes and inner incisors. 
Canines proportionally short 
and stout. Upper premolars 
and anterior molars as in V. 
vittatus. Second molars con- 
vex instead of being flattened 
or concave behind, owing to 
the total absenceof™:*. Lower 
incisors four in number, about 
equal in size. Anterior cusp 
of the last lower premolar 
almost as high as the canine.

slightly longer than 743 n.3 small, not so minute as in JV. 
bidens, but still only about one quarter the size in section of 
the anterior premolar.
