Ears triangular with rounded tips ; outer margin slightly concave be- 
neath the tip, then convex, emarginate opposite the baso of the tragus, and 
terminating in a small lobe. Tragus slightly curved inwards and rounded 
at the tip. Glands of upper lip well developed, causing a slight depression 
on the face behind the nostrils. Tail long, wholly contained within the 
interfemoral membrane. A well-defined, rounded lobe posterior to the cal- 
caneum. 
Ears, sides of face about the eyes, interfemoral membrane, ante- 
humeral membrane, and that portion of wing-membrane along the sides of 
the body, white, very translucent ; remaining portion of wing membrane 
sepia, traversed by white reticulations. Fur, on the upper surface, black at 
the base of the hairs for about half their length, remaining portion light 
yellowish brown ; beneath, somewhat similar. 
The fur of the head extends forwards as far as the labial prominences 
which aro thinly covered with a few short hairs ; in front of the ear and 
about the eye the side of the face is almost naked. On the upper surface 
the fur of the body extends outwards, covering the proximal third of the 
humerus and the wing-membrane thence, backwards, to the knee joint ; pos- 
teriorly, the anterior tim’d of the interfemoral membrane is covered ; beneath 
the fur of the abdomen extends upon the wing-membrane to nearly the same 
extent as on the upper surface, and the interfemoral membrane is clothed 
with a few, short hairs.
