6. Vesperugo {Vesperus) nasutus, n. sp. 



Head flat, muzzle conical, the extremity projecting considerably be- 

 yond the lower lip in front, as in the s];)ecies of the genus Ngctinomus, ter- 

 minated by the margins of the nostrils which open sublaterally ; ears 

 shorter than the head, triangular, with rounded o:ff tips ; the inner margin 

 of the conch commences above the eye and does not form a distinct rounded 

 lobe at its base, but is straight almost from the base to the iv^ of the ear ; 

 the outer margin is also straight and terminates rather abruptly midway 

 between the tragus and the angle of the mouth ; tragus much longer than 

 broad, directed slightly inwards, reaching its greatest ^vidth about the mid- 

 dle of the inner margin, outer margin convex with an ill-defined lobe near 

 the base, inner margin slightly concave, tip subacutely pointed. 



Tail almost wholly contained in the interfemoral membrane, the last 

 rudimentary caudal vertebra alone free ; no post-calcaneal lobe ; wings from 

 the base of the toes. 



Fur short : above, pale yellowish brown ; beneath, pale buff, almost 

 white : membranes light brown traversed by numerous white reticulations. 



The face is nearly naked in front of the eyes ; a few hairs fringe the 

 lips, and the under surface of the j)rojecting extremity of the muzzle ; the 

 wing and interfemoral membranes are almost naked. 



Upper inner incisors moderately long and unicuspidate, outer incisors 

 very short, but slightly exceeding the cingulum of the inner incisors in 

 vertical extent : lower incisors trifid, crowded, placed across the direction of 

 the jaws : the single upper premolar close to the canine as in V. serotinus ; 

 the first lower premolar not half the second in vertical extent, with a pro- 

 minent internal and anterior basal cusp. 



Length, head and body l"-8 : tail V'l : head 0"-68 : ear 0"-6 ; tragus 

 0"25 ; forearm l"'4i5; thumb 0"25 ; third finger (metacarp. l''-3 ; 1st j^h.

 0"-l) ; fifth finger (metacarp. r-3 ; 1st ph. 0"-28 ; 2nd ph. 0"-28) tibia
