Csorba, G.: Remarks on some types of the genus Rhinolophus (Mammalia, Chiroptera)

of R. thomasi (therefore justifies the distinctness on species level), it overlaps in size with the majority of the known R. thomasi specimens (determined hereby the slender upper and lower canine only). On average, R. sinicus is much bigger than R. thomasi. The form septentrionalis is therefore better referable to R. sinicus; the large external measurements (the forearm length is over 50 mm) validate the subspecific separation within the species. Rhinolophus philippinensis montanus GOODWIN, 1979 GOODWIN (1979) discussed the differences between his new montanus and the other subspecies of R. philippinensis, and noted its much smaller size, differently shaped sella and connecting process, more pronounced nasal swellings and more crowded situation of the small premolars. Investigation of the known specimens (holotype, paratype and two more individuals collected together the types, AMNH 237811-237814) has shown that these differences are definitely beyond Figs 12-13. Frontal views of noseleaves: 12 = R. sinicus (HZM 23.28155), 13 = /?. thomasi (BMNH 90.4.7.10, holotype). Scale = 3 mm
