Mr. O. Thomas on a new Cynopterus. 235 



robustly spined. Tympana covered ; opercula broad, ob- 

 tusely angulated, not reaching the middle of the abdomen. 

 Tegmina with the apical third more or less reticulately veined, 

 the apical areas numerous, generally twelve or thirteen in 

 number. 



This genus is allied to Polyneura, from which it differs by 

 the much narrower head, the semihyaline and not opaque teg- 

 mina, and the different reticulation in the venation of same ; 

 the pronotal margin and the size of the opercula are also 

 distinctive characters. 



Anyamiana cetherea, n. sp. 



Body black ; eyes castaneous ; anterior, lateral, and poste- 

 rior margins of pronotum (the first narrowly), and an abbre- 

 viated, central, narrow, longitudinal fascia to same, posterior 

 margin of metanotum, head beneath (excluding face), ster- 

 num, and opercula pale greenish ochraceous ; legs and rostrum 

 black. Body more or less clothed with greyish pile, espe- 

 cially at the lateral margins of the mesonotum and the base 

 and segmental margins of the abdomen. 



Tegmina semihyaline and of a pale shining bronzy hue, 

 the venation darker and either ochraceous or greenish, the 

 costal membrane pale greenish ; the extreme base and the 

 veins enclosing the postcostal area black ; the veins enclosing 

 the two uppermost apical areas, the terminal vein of the lower 

 ulnar area, and the outer margin dark bronzy. Wings pale 

 bluish green, becoming pale bronzy towards apex, the outer 

 margin dark bronzy. 



The opercula are broad and divergent, their outer margins 

 convex, their inner margins oblique, their apices obtusely 

 angulated and not reaching the middle of the abdomen. The 

 rostrum about reaches the posterior coxae. 



Long. excl. tegm., <$ 46, ? 40-42 millim. ; exp. tegm. 

 cJ ? 124-132 millim.

XXXVI. — Diagnosis of a new Cynopterus ^/Km Borneo. 

 By Oldfield Thomas. 



Cynopterus spadiceus, sp. n. 



Closely allied to C. latidens, Dobs., with which it shares 

 the characteristic structure of the teeth, but distinguished by 

 its larger size, much shorter fur, especially on the under sur- 

 face of the body, the presence of tufts of coarse yellow hairs
