* Allen states that Vampyressa is antedated by Tonatia Gray, 1827, but Thomas 
(1. ¢., 1902) shows that this is not the case, Lophostoma D'Orbigny, 1838, being the 
name antedated by Tonatia. Both Allen and Thomas inadvertently refer to Vampy- 
ressa, (instead of Vampyriscus) as based on V. bidens. 
T Vampyrum Geoffroy has not been found.
