34 INDIAN TERTIARY AND POST-TERTIARY VERTEBRATA. 
and bed X in the Charnel-House were specifically identical. A subsequent examina- 
tion of these specimens has, however, shown that they are of considerably smaller 
size ; but the extreme difficulty of distinguishing the crania of the members of this 
genus renders it unsafe to attempt their specific determination. The well-marked 
hook to the first incisor indicates, however, that the specimens belong to Sorez 
proper. 
Taphozous saccol^emus, Temminck. 
Skulls. — Three imperfect crania and several fragments of the mandible of this 
species were obtained from beds C and Ci in the Cathedral, and also from the 
Charnel-House. The most perfect example of the cranium, which was obtained 
from bed Ci in the former cave, is represented in pi. VIII. figs. 10, 10a; the 
characteristic elongated postorbital process of the frontal is well shown in fig. 10, 
while the enlarged view of the cheek-teeth in fig. 10a exhibits the three true molars, 
the large pm. 4 , and the minute preceding premolar. 
Distribution. — The species is found over a considerable part of India, and also 
in Ceylon, Burma, the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, and Java. 
Phyllorhina diadema (GeofEroy). 
Skull. — Of this widely distributed species imperfect crania and mandibular 
rami are comparatively common in both the Cathedral and the Charnel-House caves. 
The middle portion of a cranium from the latter cave is represented in pi. VIII. fig. 
1 1 , and the cheek-dentition of another specimen from bed C/i in the Cathedral in 
fig. 11a. The upper cheek-dentition of this species is numerically the same as in 
Tajpliozous, but the penultimate premolar is placed more externally, and the inner 
borders of the true molars are more rounded ; there is no supraorbital process to the 
frontal. A left mandibular ramus from bed Ci in the Cathedral, in which the 
anterior teeth are wanting, is represented in fig. 12 of the same plate ; and there 
are numerous similar specimens from the Charnel-House. 
Humerus. — The right humerus from bed Ci in the Cathedral represented in pi. 
VIII. figs. 9, 9a may probably be referred to the present species. There are other 
similar specimens in the collection. 
Sciurus macrurus, Hardwicke. 
Mandible. — The fragment of the left mandibular ramus of a squirrel represented 
in pi. VIII. fig. 5, which was obtained from bed Ga in the Cathedral and contains 
the partially worn mTT, agrees so closely with the mandible of S. macrurus, now 
inhabiting Madras, that it may be pretty safely referred to that species. 
Gerbillus indicus (Hardwicke). 
Mandible . — This species is represented by several mandibular rami from the 
Cathedral and Charnel-House caves. The mineral condition of these specimens 
indicates that they are of the same age as the other fossils with which they are
