representatives of the European Rhinolophi in India. The other section is more 
strictly Asiatic : three of our species have, in the membrane, the character of the 
Rhinolophus diadema, with a slight modification; another has already been men- 
tioned as forming an approach to Megaderma ; and one of our species has an excava- 
tion m the forehead, above the membrane, similar to that of the Rhinolophus speoris 
of Schneider. 
To distinguish clearly the Javanese Rhinolophi from those which are found in 
other parts of the East Indies, I have taken into consideration, in defining the specific 
characters, besides the nasal membrane, the ears, the proportional length of the tail 
and posterior extremities, and the colour of the hairy covering of the body. The ears 
exhibit the following forms : they are erect, patulous or spreading above, entire, 
curved or emarginate at the sides ; at the base they are simple, or provided on one or 
on both opposite sides with convolute lobes, which in several species are separated 
posteriorly by a deep notch, and thus exhibit a distinct inferior lobule, The propor- 
tional length of the tail, and of the extremities, affords in several species, a marked 
distinction. The colour is considerably diversified ; it is either golden with a beau- 
tiful brown lustre, pure gray with a silvery tint, or pure brown of different shades, 
passing by insensible gradations to grayish brown and gray. These remarks are 
sufficient to illustrate the following enumeration of Javanese Rhinolophi.
