Abstract

Abstract. A previously unpublished description and drawings of the Greater Bulldog Bat, Noctilio leporinus (Linnaeus, 1758), made by French Minim friar Charles Plumier (1646–1704) during the first (1687–1688) of three voyages of exploration to the West Indies, are described and reproduced. The earliest known depiction of this taxon, Plumier's account is compared with later descriptions, especially those of Dutch apothecary Albertus Seba (1665–1736) and Carl Linnaeus (1707–1778). Evidence is also presented to emphasize the originality and scientific accuracy of Plumier's account.

Charles Plumier（1646–1704）的Vespertilio maximus ex insula Sancti Vincenti:之前未发表的关于大斗牛犬蝙蝠的描述和绘画，Noctilio leporinus（林奈，1758）

摘要描述并复制了法国小修士查尔斯·普卢米尔（1646–1704）在三次西印度群岛探险的第一次（1687–1688）期间对大斗牛犬蝙蝠Noctilio leporinus（林奈，1758）的先前未发表的描述和绘画。普卢米尔的描述是已知对该分类单元最早的描述，并与后来的描述进行了比较，尤其是荷兰药剂师阿尔伯图斯·塞巴（1665-1736）和卡尔·林奈（1707-1778）的描述。也有证据强调普卢默的叙述的独创性和科学准确性。
