Fig. 7: Lateral cranial views of the same specimens shown in fig. 6. Top, D. nitedula; center, D. niethammeri; bottom, D. laniger. republics of the former U. S. S. R. that have grey and yellowish grey fur. Most of the specimens from Iran included here are likewise ash or tawny grey above. The populations of D. nitedula in Iran need further study, however, as there are some dif- ferences in morphology between the paler examples and the more usual reddish brown specimens from that country. Two juveniles housed at the BM(NH) (—41) from the Zagros Mountains, Kuhrang Dam, have large bullae com- pared to adult specimens and other juveniles collected at nearby localities. The striking dark, broad eye mask characteristic of D. niethammeri is also a hallmark of D. nitedula, and certainly provides no contrast between the two species. Comparison with D. laniger: D. laniger is somewhat smaller in overall size than either D. niethammeri or D. nitedula (table 1; fig. 9). It also has a more delicate Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Zoologisches Forschungsinstitut und Museum Alexander Koenig.
