L. 23. P. 13. Of the muscles drawn in the sketches on the previous page, the outstandingly peculiar one is the extensor slip of the hyo-glossus, backwards and upwards beneath the cleidomastoid to insert on the dorsal angle of the scapula. This slip (one on each side) draws first hyoid and then the tongue backwards, and is probably directly related to the extensile tongue. Sent the boy out to collect this p.m., and saw them 68 additional traps (many traps especially) for the small Phascolus. Just at six o'clock several locals were watching Rand sketch the head of a canowary. Suddenly there was a gabling of unintelligible talk over at the shore, + every bushman slipped out of camp to the canos like a fleck. It turned out that a strange canoe had been sighted at the other end of the lake. Ten minutes later they were back again; the canoe turned out to be one of their own after all. Sun, Sep 6. The weird-looking sketches beside are intended to represent front and top views of a Vesperuleonide bat, frood this morning by Brown in a leaf some 6 feet above the pond. It resembles me more if Reebucks. The tragus is long, nearly pointed; the rhinarian small but prominent; the nose glands very large & orange yellow in color. There is a large fronted pit between them. The little Phascolus I which we've been getting quite a series lately seems defined to inhabit the edge of the swamp, at least here. Take pictures of a lot of the locals this a.m. One goes with about 40 of them in it. A lot of singles + some small groups. A young D Coccus this morning,
