Comments
This species was a dominant capture in harp-traps set in forest understorey and caves at all four formations, and is consid- ered widespread throughout Borneo (Boi- tani et al., 2006) and particularly common in cave areas. It is a medium-sized round- leaf bat with two lateral leaflets, and is dis- tinguished from H. galeritus by its median noseleaf, which is narrower than the poste- rior (Corbet and Hill, 1992), and its shorter tail (19–28 mm compared to 33–38 mm in H. galeritus).
