. As a whole, the dorsal pelage is reddish brown, with dense whitish hairs on the shoulders and hips, the ventral pelage is whitish, with yellowish brown on the edge of the membrane, the anus area is dull yellowish, but the base of the tail is brown-grey. The ears are black with few hairs, but with tufts of long, whitish hairs at the base. The feet backs are covered with black hairs, and the tail is cylindrical and reddish brown in its anterior part but gradually tending to blackish brown in its distal part. The skull is large with a GLS of 74.77 mm and a ZOB of 47.09 mm. The bullae are enlarged and each of them includes numerous septa (> 10) in a complex honeycomb pattern. The anterior edge of the nasals is slightly arc-shaped and extends slightly beyond the surface of the incisors. The surfaces of the upper and lower incisors are dull yellowish, without any orange. In the cheek teeth, P3 is relatively enlarged and cone-shaped. The length of P4 slightly exceeds each of the molars; P4 has three well-developed cusps on the labial side and one large cusp on the lingual side. Both M1 and M2 have two well-developed cusps on the labial side and one large cusp and one smaller cusp on the lingual side, and there is a smaller cusp on the posterior transverse ridge of P4, M1, and M2. M3 is smaller than P4, M1, and M2, and its later crown surface becomes a

<paragraph pageId="0" pageNumber="65">The mandible is strong, with the coronoid process developed, and the condylar process has a developed articular surface; the angular process is developed and curved towards the inside at its bottom. The upper incisors are strong and positioned vertically downwards; their outer surfaces are yellowish, without any orange. P3 is cone-shaped and on the inside of the front of P4; overall, the crown surface of P4 appears as a triangle with three well-developed cusps on the labial side and one large cusp on the lingual side, and its labial side length is slightly longer than those of M1, M2, and M3. M1 and M2 are approximately equal in size; both have two well-developed cusps on the labial side, and one large cusp and one smaller cusp on the lingual side. There is a smaller cusp on the posterior transverse ridge of P4, M1, and M2. Compared with P4, M1, and M2, M3 is the smallest; its lingual side cusp is larger than the cusp on the labial side, and its later crown surface becomes a U-shape, with a small depression in its center.</paragraph>

<paragraph pageId="0" pageNumber="65">The outer surface of the lower incisors is yellowish, the same as for the upper incisors; however, the inside part of the inner surface sinks deeply, making the outside margin sharp. From P4 to M3, the teeth enlarge gradually, and there are two labial and lingual cusps on each of them (the later lingual cusp of M3 becomes a ridge); there is also a smaller cusp between, and slightly internal to, the two labial cusps on each of them. Different levels of depression occur in the centers of the crown surfaces of P4, M1, M2, and M3, with the largest in M3.</paragraph>
