contents (Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Five specimens of Tadarida russata obtained from Cameroun, West Africa, appear to be the first collected since the original series was obtained in 1910 from near Medje, Congo. Both the new and the original specimens were taken along the junction of the so-called "high forest" and "Guinea forest" zones but some 1200 miles apart. The Cameroun specimens were compared with the original type series and additional morphological data provided as well as the illustrations of facial and cranial features. T. bivittata, of similar size, is shown not to be closely allied with T. russata nor any member of the subgenus Chaerephon. T. russata is closely related to T. aloysiisabaudiae but differs in size, skull proportions, and details of the basisphenoid pits.
