VeSPERUGO HESPERUS. 



Scotophilus hesperus, Allen, Monogr. Bats of North America, p. 43, figs. 38, 

 39 (head and ear) (1864). 



The following is Dr. Allen's description of this species, the type of which 1 

 have not seen, and of which no specimens, so far as I know, have been received 

 in any of the European Museums : — 



" Diminutive. Head small, flat ; face blimt and stout, not hairy. Tragus 

 short, blunt, slightly concave on inner, convex on outer border, causing it to 

 incurve. Thumb small ; nail dull and minute ; foot very small ; wing-mem- 

 brane attached to base of toes. Interfemoral membrane ample. A small ex- 

 calcaneal lobe of membrane, the termination of calcaneum blending with the 

 membrane. The tip of the tail is not exserted. Body rather slender.
