L. 17. P. 7. of Nyctimera, both females, so much smaller and differently colored than no. 3264 that although they also possess greenish yellow marks on the wing digits & metatarsal I can hardly believe them the same species. The extremely small size 1.5 mm. of the eye opening of the Dipposiderus in in great contrast with those of Nyctimera (6.0) or Dobsonia (7.0). Two Dobsonia were bought in today, and the tail is suspended beneath the interfemoral membrane by a septum-like membrane. The second wing digit of Dopsonia is clawless but to the terminal joint crooked. The larger of the two Nyctimera females has the mammary well developed; the second one is probably young. It was alarming to meet a string of bushmen leading for our camp this pm. Each carried a single small article - one a warbler, a second a small owl, a third a bunch of bananas, a fourth a bat, or - all wanting payment in beads. Today I offered a pocket knife for a cuscus - I use t cuscus (their word simai) for any large animal, as there is the only word I know. They showed plenty of interest we shall see. There is now no doubt of the two species of Nyctimera. The female of the large one was bought in a little before sundown.
