The superior maxillary bone is considerably elongated in this order, particularly in. the frugivorous genera. The difference in this respect which exists between the frugivorous and insectivorous forms is shewn in the cranium of a Pteropus belonging to the former (Jig. 281, 282, 283), and a Phyllostoma to the latter group (Jig. 284, 285, 286).
