by a deep angular notch. Horizontal horseshoe-shaped nose-leaf 

 not concealing the sides of the muzzle, finely crenate along its outer 

 free margin ; vertical process of the sella long, diminishing gradually 

 in width from the base upwards, its anterior surface thus presenting 

 the form of an isosceles triangle with a narrowly rounded-ofE vertical 

 angle ; the upper edge of the posterior connecting-process forms a 

 narrow subacute projection, scarcely exceeding the summit of the 

 anterior process of the sella ; posterior nose-leaf long, its terminal 

 process shaped Kke the vertical process of the sella (Plate VII. fig. 8). 

 Lower lip with a single vertical groove. 



Wings from the ankles ; interfemoral membrane angular behind, 

 the extreme tip of the tail alone projecting. 



Pur light brown above, beneath light greyish brown.

 tail 1"-15, head 0"-65, ear 0"-6, forearm l"-5, third finger 2"-2, fifth 

 finger 2", tibia 0"-7, foot 0"-3, nose-leaf 0"-5 X 0"-3.

Ears shorter than the head, not attenuated at their extremities, 

 the inner margin of the ear-conch convex to the tip ; antitragus short, 

 evenly convex, separated posteriorly by a very shallow notch ; nose- 

 leaf about the same size as in Rh. affinis, the horizontal leaf broader 

 than in Rh. euryale, but not concealing the muzzle ; vertical process 

 of the sella slightly narrowed in the centre, broader and rounded-ofF 

 above, exceeded in height by the upper margin of the posterior con- 

 necting-process, which forms an angular elevation more or less acute.
