I cannot agree with the opinion expressed by M. Temminck (Mo- 

 nogr. II. p. 15), that the R. vulgaris above described is the female of 

 this species. M. Fischer, in the " Synops. Mammal.," enumerates the 

 R. insignis as a synonym of R. speoris, Geoffr., which determination is 

 not ki accordance with the authors on Vespertilionidse above cited. See
