Ears somewhat shorter than the head, acute, the outer margin 

 not deeply hollowed out beneath the tip ; antitragus large, separated 

 by a deep angiilar incision. Horizontal horseshoe-shaped membrane 

 moderate, not extending so far in front or laterally as to conceal 

 the sides of the muzzle when viewed from above, yet larger than in 

 Rh. ferrum-equinum ; vertical front surface of the sella maintaining 

 the same width upwards, rounded off above, exceeded in height by 

 the summit of the laterally flattened connecting-process, which 

 forms a round ed-ofF angle from which a few hairs arise; terminal 

 nose-leaf rather short, the subacute triangular terminal process with 

 slightly concave sides (Plate VII. fig. 5). Lower lip with three 

 distinct grooves. 



Wing-membrane from the tarsus or ankle, or from the tibia 

 higher up. Interfemoral membrane square or slightly angular 

 behind ; tail wholly included, or projecting by the extreme tip. 



Fur variable in colour, greyish brown or reddish brown or even 

 golden orange-brown, the hairs darker towards their extremities. 

 Ith. cinerascens, fulvidus, et ruhidus, Kelaart, were founded on these 

 differences in the colour of the fur.
