Zygomatic arches lacking in tlie specimens examined. Palatinal area slightly lowered against skull base (in German hterature: klinorhynch). Premaxiharia shifted anteriorly. Foramina palatina minora lymg in front of the canine : Phyllonycteris poeyi, skull a: lateral view, b: dorsal view, c: basal view Teeth: dental formula - 2 3 1 - - 3 4 5 6 7 1 2 - 1 - - 3 4 5 6 7 Upper incisivi separated from canine tooth by broad diastema; itmer ones larger than outer ones, orientated posteriorly, jointly forming an almost straight edge (teeth somewhat horsehke). Canini strong and broad; first upper premolar small, the second one at least double the size with lingual cusp. Upper molars flat with broad crowns lacking a dilambdodont ectoloph. Glossophaga () Skull: braincase longer than rostrum (only hi G. longirostris almost of the same length). Zygomatic arches developed quite well and preserved in most specimens. SkuU base vaulted to different extent within the species. G. commissarisi is separated from G. soricina by contours of the presphenoid. Mandibula with flat coronoid and distinct mentum. Teeth: dental formula - 2 3 1 - - 3 4 5 6 7 12-1-234567 Upper incisivi uniform, sometimes slightly projecting forward, forming an almost complete curve between the canmi (gaps between the outer incisivi and the canine teeth narrower than width of the outer incisivus), the inner incisivus is broader than high with straight edge; the outer one is shorter, but thus with its edge in one level with the inner one. Lower incisivi well developed, completely fihmg the space between the canini, with flat crowns (width = height) and rounded to roundly rectangular profile. Strong canine teeth with weak cingulum, the upper ones with distinct anterior and posterior edge. Upper. Please not
