Systematics of African Nycteris 131 3 = Mikindani (23), 4 = Taveta (4), 5 = Kampi ya mawe (3), 6 = Ol donyo Sambu (3), 7 = Kilosa (4), 8 = 25 specimens from a variety of localities with each less than 3 specimens. The analysis indicates that all original variates are positively correlated with ,: from for Mast to for Mand, illustrating that the x axis is an indicator for size. Except for of m3-m3, all width measurements are positively correlated with With the exception of one specimen, which scores very high on the animals from Tanzania are very similar to one another. This one specimen was collected in the St. Andrews College at Minaki (KU 89943) and all of its measurements are considerably larger than those of the other Tanzanian material. It even falls within the range of N. macrotis. However, the shape of the tragus clearly indicates that this specimen belongs to TV. thebaica. No significant distinction could be found between the different localities along Along , the specimens from Kilosa differ significantly from those from Bagamoyo, Iraku and Mikindani. Both sexes, however, are significantly distinct along both and A final canonical analysis is performed on the skull measurements of 818 speci- mens and is illustrated by figure 7. The group division is as follows: 1 = N. thebaica from West Africa (n = 111), 2 = N. thebaica from northeast Africa (n = 67), 3 = N. thebaica from southern Africa (n = 294), 4 = N. thebaica from East Africa (n = 108).
