to the back of the feet. Beneath, tlie ante-humeral membrane is clothed 

 with rather long thinly- spread fur, and the wing-membrane is similarly- 

 covered as far as a line drawn from the knee to a point about half an inch 

 posterior to the elbow, whence the fur extends outwards to the carpus. The 

 interfemoral membrane, the legs, and the feet are covered with a few very 

 short hairs. 



First upper premolar minute, equally distant from the canine and second 

 premolar ; second premolar exceeding lower canine in vertical extent ; first 

 lower premolar small, less than half the size of the second premolar ; second 

 premolar nearly equal to lower canine in vertical extent.

Ctn-qntcteeis minor, n. sp. PI. XIV, Fig. 9. 



Ears smaller and much narrower than in C. amplexicaudata ; muzzle 

 also proportionately shorter. 



The minute first upper premolar is closely wedged in between the canine 

 and second premolar ; in C. amj^lexicaudata it is separated by a narrow 

 interval from both these teeth. 



The distribution of the fur is somewhat similar to that of G. amplexi- 

 cauadtus, but it is much shorter on the wing-membrane and almost absent 

 from the backs of the tibise, from the adjoining portions of wing-membrane, 

 and from the feet.
