antitragus, together with its rather smaller size and usually 

 darker colour. With the material at hand I am unable to 

 recognize the local forms of this species described by Andersen 

 and Matschie, as the alleged differences appear to be within the 

 range of normal individual variation.

Type locality. — Bucharest, Roumania. 



Geographical distribution. — Roumania, southern France 

 (Gard), Sardinia, central Spain. Details of distribution not 

 known. 



Diagnosis. — Like Bhinolophus euryale but larger (forearm, 

 48 • 6 to 51 • 4 ; upper tooth-row about 7 mm.); noseleaf with 

 lancet abruptly narrowed to a linear tip ; ear with antitragal 

 lobe relatively broad and low ; fourth finger with first phalanx 

 decidedly more than one-third as long as second (ratio about 44) ; 

 colour usually paler than in the related animal. 

 <j External characters. — Slightly larger and more robust than 

 Bhinolophus euryale, a difference especially noticeable in freshly 

 killed individuals. Noseleaf as in B. euryale, except that the 

 lancet is very abruptly narrowed above middle to a distinctly 

 linear tip. Ear as in B. euryale but broader, the antitragal lobe
