98 MR. K. ANDERSEN ON BATS [May 16, 
(c) In Blanford’s ‘Fauna of British India’ (loc. injra cit.) 
Rh. peterst is recorded from Masuri and from Nilghiri. The 
former statement is borrowed from Hutton’s paper. The latter is 
based on an example collected by W. Davison in Coonoor, Nilghiri*. 
This specimen is now in the British Museun. It is a Ah. rouse. 
In short:—(1) For reasons given above I regard Dobson’s 
Rh. peterst (1872 and 1876) as a synonym of Lh. rouxt; (2) 
Dobson’s Rh. petersi (1878) is Rh. acuminatus; (3) Dobson's 
Rh. peterst (1880) is Rh. swmatranus; (4) Hutton’s hh. petersi 
is Rh. monticola; (5) Blanford’s Rh. petersi is partly Rh. monticola 
(Masuri), partly Rh. rowaxi (Nilghiri). 
Geographical races. There are, at least, two forms of 2h. rouwi, 
differing in size and geographical habitat. 
lla. RHINOLOPHUS ROUXI SINICUS, subsp. n. 
Diagnosis. Skull smaller, tooth-rows shorter. Forearm 46 mm. 
Details. The general size is as in the very smallest examples I 
have seen of the typical form. Skull still a little smaller, with 
slenderer brain-case and shorter tooth-rows; nasal swellings, in 
front view, slightly lower. Colour as in the dark phase of 
Himalayan specimens of the typical form (see below).

Colour.—(1) Specimens from Nepal and Darjeeling. (a) Dark 
phase: onead.; Nepal; teeth unworn ; skin :—Upper side “ mars- 
brown”; horse-shoe patch on back distinguishable, though some- 
what obliterated ; base of hairs light ‘‘ drab,” almost ‘ ecru-drab ” ; 
under side “drab,” with a tinge of ‘“russet” ; sides of body some- 
what darker. With this skin agree in colour another adult 
specimen from Nepal (teeth somewhat worn; skin) and a 9 ad. 
from Darjeeling (in alcohol).
