When lying side by side, G. hindsi appears like agray animal in comparison. The ears of the present species are abouta third larger than those of G. hindsi both in length and width. Intheir dried and shrunken state they measure 31 mm. in length and 27mm. in width, while those of G. hindsi are 24 mm. long by 22 , and as the collectors measurement of the ears of the latterspecies was 39 mm. in length, allowing for the same shrinkage thoseof G. zuLUENSis would be 8 or 10 mm. longer. There is such a vastdifference in the size of the skull and teeth that they admit of nocomparison. In color G. zuluensis is like G. grassicaudatus, but hasa much smaller skull it being midway between G. grassicaudatus andG. hindsi with all the differences such a disparity of size would
