“ Above dark brown, with an olivaceous wash, the fur being uniform dark brown to the base tipped with a slight tinge of olivaceous, the extreme tip slightly grayish in certain lights; below much lighter, the fur being dark brown basally and broadly tipped with pale buffy gray; ears and membranes black, naked, and with no trace of a whitish border. ”

“ The peculiar structure of the ears, to say nothing of the coloration, in V. albigularis, render comparison with this species unnecessary. V. propinquus is described as reddish above, paler and more reddish yellow below, and in this respect is widely different from A. gaumeri. It has also a longer thumb and foot than A. gaumeri.
The type and only specimen of this species has been kindly presented by Dr. Gaumer to this Museum, with other specimens of Yucatan mammals. ”
