evening hours are usually abundant among the trees. The teeth are strong, 

 and the tout-ensemble of its aspect is not unlike that of a bull-dog."*

 Fhyllorhina masoni, Dobson, J. A. S. B. 1872, p. 338. 



This fine species, very similar to P. diaderna, but differing from it in 

 the form of the concave front surface of the transverse nose-leaf, which 

 is divided into two cells only by a single central longitudinal ridge, has been 

 found at Moulmain, and the single type specimen is in the Indian Museum, 

 Calcutta. Closely allied to it, but much smaller, is P. nicolaremis, Dobson, 

 from the Mcobars.f]

A specimen of this species was found by me among several specimens 

 of P. larvata collected by Dr. Anderson at Prome, Burma, during the first 

 expedition to Yunan. — G.E.D.] §

P. licolor inhabits the Malayan countries and Philippines, and was 

 obtained by Hutton in the Deyra Boon and hills up to 5500 feet. 



According to Mr. Dobson, the golden-coloured specimens examined proved 

 to be pregnant females exclusively. Examples so coloured occur in several 

 species both of Rhinolophus and Phyllorhina. |]

 becomes lighter on the lower-parts." — J. A. S. B. xv. p. 181.
