Very few specimens of this rare bat have hitherto been obtained. The 
type was procured at Padang, Sumatra, and the remaining few examples known 
(with the exception of the present one) have all come from Borneo. This 
species differs from the other members of the genus Cynopterus by having only 
two incisors in the lower jaw. 
Measurements of the above specimen: —Head and body, 78 mm.; Forearm, 
53 mm. 
The total absence of the tail, the long nostrils, short muzzle, and presence 
of but two incisors in the lower jaw, enable this species to be easily recognized.
